Dedication? Even at 15 levels, Vampire Lore is one of, if not THE, fastest and easiest skills to learn. It only requires your Sim to research on the computer once, then read the tomes as they become available. While it DOES take a couple of read throughs for each book, it’s quite easy to level up since reading is the only action necessary to do so. Reading fills the ‘Fun’ need and, when done for a Simspiration, adds satisfaction points, so I never had a negative issue like boredom. My Sim has the speed reading trait and I never made her read or re-read the tomes back-to-back, so maybe that’s why.
