In any given interaction itвЂ™s a percentage chance that you Sim will actually discover a trait, but if you roll a pair of dice enough times, youвЂ™ll get boxcars eventually. Remember that nothing is guaranteed to pop. Once youвЂ™ve got a reasonable idea of one or two of their traits, just keep hitting related conversation topics and youвЂ™ll get there eventually and maybe make a new Best Friend (or Nemesis) in the process. Rubbing their hands and cackling is a good indicator of 'Evil,' for example. If you see a вЂњthumbs upвЂќ emote, they are likely вЂњGoodвЂќ, or the вЂњShacka Bra!вЂќ finger-wave emote probably means theyвЂ™re вЂњFriendlyвЂќ, but youвЂ™ll need to watch closely to figure them out. If theyвЂ™re emoting Gardening tools, seeds, and plants, then itвЂ™s a pretty good bet that вЂњGreen ThumbвЂќ is one of their traits. One of the easiest ways for the player to figure out another SimвЂ™s traits is to watch what they emote when theyвЂ™re chatting, sharing a secret or getting to know. вЂњUniversity LifeвЂќ added a mobile radio station that is available to Communications majors which will let you learn traits similarly to the Journalism/Law Enforcement вЂњInterviewвЂќ interaction and Level 6+ Nerds can 'Mind Meld' with other Sims.ДЄside from those few, the only other way to learn traits is to socially interact with Sims and hope that something pops. Vampires (Late Night + Supernatural to be available in Create-a-Sim) have the ability to learn traits by reading SimsвЂ™ minds.ДЈ. ItвЂ™s got a few other benefits, but they are beyond the scope of this guide.Дў. If your Sim has the вЂњPerceptiveвЂќ trait (added by the вЂњAmbitionsвЂќ expansion pack), your chances of discovering traits are significantly better. Some of the expansion packs added additional ways of discovering traits, but these are only available if you have the proper pack(s) installed:ДЎ. If you progress your Sim far enough in the Journalism or Law Enforcement careers, you will get an вЂњInterviewвЂќ social interaction, which does work on Sims that you already know, but this will not work on newly-met Sims until you raise your relationship level a bit. IвЂ™ve completed the challenge a few times and havenвЂ™t noticed much of a difference with Sims that I already know.ДЈ. If your Sim can complete the вЂњPersonableвЂќ Charisma challenge (discover 50 traits of other Sims), your chances of discovering unknown traits will be a bit easier, but I think itвЂ™s only for Sims you are speaking to for the first time. It will set you back 5,000 reward points, but will automatically reveal three traits just by greeting another Sim (reaching the Acquaintance relationship level).Дў. The вЂњObservantвЂќ Lifetime Reward is the easiest method. I am not aware of any guaranteed method of discovering all traits, but treating it like the minigame that it is will get you closer to where you want to be than just randomly interacting.ДЎ. The problem is that your Sim only has a percentage chance of discovering them, but a little strategy can stack the odds in your favor somewhat. So if your goal is to build a relationship (or destroy it), to fulfill a wish, to complete an opportunity, or simply to satisfy your own curiosity, then you need to figure out which traits the other Sim has. вЂњComplain about Dirty DishesвЂќ wouldnвЂ™t get much of a warm reception from a Sim with the вЂњSlobвЂќ trait, but would definitely score points from a Sim with the вЂњNeatвЂќ trait. For example, a social interaction of вЂњEnthuse about BooksвЂќ will generate more positive relationship growth when done with a Sim who has the вЂњBookwormвЂќ trait than it would with one that does not. ДЇor the player who must interact with them, other SimsвЂ™ traits mostly serve to help or hinder the development of the relationship between the two Sims. For players wanting a more in-depth look at traits in The Sims 3, I recommend the Sims Wiki (/wiki/Trait_(The_Sims_3)). The player always has the option of shoving their Virtuoso Sim into a greasy-spoon cookвЂ™s career, but most of the other Sims have careers and interests that match their traits. This is especially true for Sims other than the playerвЂ™s. With вЂњUniversity LifeвЂќ installed it is possible to have a maximum of seven: one additional trait for gaining a degree and one for Sims who gain Level 8 influence with one of the social groups (Nerds, Rebels or Jocks).ДЇor the Sims who have them, traits can make life easier or more difficult, make them more or less adept at certain tasks, cause them to perform (or not) certain actions, and often determine their careers.

Young Adult, Adult, and Elder Sims have five traits Teens (and some older NPCs) have four Children have three Babies and Toddlers have two. Traits are the dimensions of a SimвЂ™s personality.
