BTW, the Adventurer career reward is the Weather control device. It was the first one my founder went for :)
No, the Weather Controller is an aspiration reward; the Adventurer career reward is the Tiki God thing that works like the Journalism reward to boost a sims motives.

How about tile size. I haven't used any of these objects, but how many tiles do each occupy? If the snap dragon occupies a single tile, then that seems to be the best object to use. It doesn't seem like these career rewards are all that useful. :P
They're all 1 tile. The Adventurer Tiki God thing is a full-size statue. The Journalism thing is a small statue that can sit on a table or the floor. The snapdragon is the same -- a big vase of flowers that can go on a table or the floor.
seelindarun:
Are the career reward effects additive as snapdragons are? i.e. if I have two in the room, double the energy increase?
I don't have Seasons yet, but the energy boost alone would be reason enough to get a couple for the skilling areas. If they stack, they'd potentially be much more powerful than snapdragons.

Oh crap! You're right, I get confused, sorry :-[

You can have as many career rewards you want Syber, but the sims do have to earn each one with that particular career.
What I meant was, you can only get one career reward per sim per career i.e. Sim A can reach the top of career track A and get career reward A, but only once. He can switch to career B and get career reward B, but he can't switch back to career A and get another career reward A. This is opposed to Aspiration rewards, which you can "re-purchase" multiple times, as long as you have sufficient aspiration points. Now, if you had Sim B in the same family, and she reached the top of career track A, she could also unlock that career reward, and you would effectively have two of them. But when you unlock it once, for a specific sim, that's it. It's a one time thing, yes, no? At least, that's the impression I got.
I play so slow that, in actuality, I haven't used any of the career rewards. Less than a handful of sims have reached the top of their careers. And since I wasn't quite sure yet if career rewards are a one time thing and if I could keep them in inventory without buggy things happening, I haven't actually used them yet. :P

Ahhh... thanks for the info joe :) I suppose, if anything, between the two career rewards, it all depends on what pleases you aesthetically, or what works/fits in your household.

You actually unlock the career rewards at level 6 of the career; they're generally designed (or at least originally were) to give you skills in one of the areas that you have to max out to reach the top level of the career (i.e., the Medical career reward builds mechanical skill). And I don't believe that you're limited to only getting it once, but I'm not 100% sure on that.
In any case, TJ and others have buyable collections of all the awards, and you can also unlock them through the testing cheats. :)
