Ambrosia

If you cook and eat it, you'll get a moodlet called "Divine Meal" for +75 Mood for 7 days, and it will reset your Sims life stage.
And makes ghosts come back to life.

You'll need:
$12,000 for Ambrosia Recipe from Bookstore.
10 Cooking.
High Fishing.
High Gardening.

You can buy the recipe from the Bookstore after you reach Max Cooking for $12,000. If you have the Lifetime Reward Bookshop Bargainer, you'll get a discount on it, and it'll only cost you $9,000.

Need to buy cheese from the Grocery store, then fish for Alley Catfish with it.

Then use the Alley Catfish to fish for Angelfish. Take the Angelfish and use it as bait in the pond at the Graveyard at midnight. You'll catch a Deathfish.

FOR RIVERVIEW:

They are in one spot of the river right near the graveyard. Where the river is Y shaped to go around the graveyard, there's a school of fish just off the tip of the V part of the Y. That is the school that has the Deathfish in it. You can ONLY catch deathfish between midnight and 5:00 a.m. so don't forget that or you won't catch any.

I tested it, and it's true. There is a school of deathfish right at the very end tip of the graveyard. The river right next to the "Don't fish sign".

You can find Life Fruit seeds laying around town. Won't specifically say Life Fruit Seed.

They're -definitely- Special seeds. Not Rare or Uncommon. Special ones. Pick those up and keep planting them until you get a Life Fruit plant. It won't say what it is till it's fully grown. You'll probably end up with Money Trees, Flame Fruits, or Death Flowers while you're trying to find a Life Fruit. Pick the Life Fruit when it's ready.

After you get all that, you can make Ambrosia! The option for it will be under "Have.." not Serve. It's a single plate. It's all rainbowy and glowy.

"How would you use it to bring someone else back from the dead?"

You have to have the ghost as controllable or something, and have them eat it. I'm not sure how to make ghosts controllable, but you apparently can.

"Is it necessary to have one sim to max out all cooking/fishing/gardening skills?
Or is it possible to let one lvl10 fishing sim to fish the deathfish
and one lvl10 gardening sim to plant the lifefruit
and one lvl10 cooking sim to finally cook it? "

Yes, that's possible. Put the Deathfish and the Life Fruit in the fridge, then have the lvl 10 Cooking Sim go to make it.

So if you want to keep them young for a while with life fruit alone until you get Ambrosia, you'll need a few plants of it. I don't *think* it works if it's cooked in pancakes or something, but apparently does if you grill it.

Stormfeather wrote:As for making ghosts playable, I've done it once so far, and wasn't even aiming for it. I had one of my Simself's close friends (Mary French) die of old age (actually I barely even really interacted with her, but she was a workmate and I did the "talk to co-workers" thing a lot at work XD), and maybe a couple days after she died, I got a special opportunity from the science lab, saying they would try to bring "someone special" back from the grave for me.

I had no idea who it might be, so I went to the mausoleum, clicked on the building and selected "manage dead," and it had Mary French's tombstone in there, which I shifted to my inventory. (I figured why not, I'd at least try it out.) I went to the science lab, completed the opportunity, and they said they kinda messed up. Then all of a sudden, my family has a new live-in member, and it's Mary French's playable ghost. XD

Interesting, thanks!

thanks for this thread i really wanted to learn how to do this. bookmark!!

Bump.

Looks like Agnes has some work to do if she ever wants her beloved Erik back ;D

I'm working on this myself. Oh and as a tip if you have around seven or so skills in Gardening you can get a life fruit for free with an opportunity.

Also you need fishing and cooking maxed, not just high.

Fix'd

Thanks! I would have never figured that out

Up, up.

Wow

I didnt know Abrosia reset life stages..

But It would probably take FOREVER to max out cooking, and fishing. and Gaining high enough garden skill

How would you use it to bring someone else back from the dead?

Is it necessary to have one sim to max out all cooking/fishing/gardening skills?

Or is it possible to let one lvl10 fishing sim to fish the deathfish
and one lvl10 gardening sim to plant the lifefruit
and one lvl10 cooking sim to finally cook it?

Wow, I didn't know about the fishing requirement, too. I was told that all I needed was the recipe from the bookstore, Lvl 10 Cooking, and 12K Simoleons.

Good to know! Thanks for posting this!
