What Energized and Very Energized do

The base Energized state multiplies skill gain for physical skills by 1.4. It also slows your Sim's Energy need drain to 0.75 as fast as normal. However, it multiplies Movement skill gain by 0.786.

When your Sim's Energized moodlets reach a total weight of 8, the mood upgrades to Very Energized. This level multiplies physical skill gain by 1.6 and makes the Energy need drain 0.6 as fast. Movement skill gain stays at a 0.786 multiplier.

These numbers are hidden multipliers inside the game. They multiply together with other active effects on your Sim. Your Sim stays awake longer and builds physical skills faster while in this state.

How to get or remove Energized moodlets

You make your Sim Energized by stacking moodlets until their total weight beats other emotions. The strongest timed moodlet is SUPER MEGA ULTRA Wutant Boost from Businesses & Hobbies, which adds 999 weight for 1 day. Mark of Edith from Life & Death adds 15 weight for 2 hours, while Mysteriously Energized from Vampires adds 8 weight for 4 hours.

Other packs offer strong options that get your Sim close to Very Energized. Really. Energized. Nectar. Feeling. from Horse Ranch adds 6 weight for 4 hours. Post-Vacation Groove from Snowy Escape gives 5 weight for 2 days, and Ready for Action from Snowy Escape gives 4 weight for 12 hours.

To get rid of the Energized mood, wait for the Sim time timers to run out. Moodlets without a timer last while their cause lasts, such as a need sitting in its band from -100 to 100. You can also open the cheat console in Live mode, enter testingcheats true, and use sims.remove_buff to remove one moodlet version from the active Sim.
