The second stage of the sims 4 chief of mischief aspiration starts with using a computer to cause mischief. You have a few options for this one. The first option is to troll the forums, nice and easy!

You can also send a chain letter when you click this a menu will open and you can send it to any sim. They don’t sound too happy and send you back mean responses though!

When you’re at level 8 of the mischief skill you can also send spam money requests to satisfy this requirement. This is fun because you’ll get a little bit of cash in return!

Gaining the mischief skill is super easy. You can do this by doing mischief interactions with other sims, doing any of the mischief computer interactions or by reading the mischief skill books you can purchase.

Now it’s time to get into the fun stuff, it’s time to start pranking. There are a bunch of things that satisfy this including the spam money and chain letter computer interactions we discussed before.

Another option you have is to head to the social menu on your sim’s phone and choose to make a prank call. When you do this your sim will get a confident moodlet if it goes well!

You can also just go up to a sim and choose to do pranks. You’ll find these under mischief > pranks and any of them will satisfy this requirement.

My favourite is the air horn interaction because it’s just so silly. Or Noxious cloud, we here are Simming Simplified love fart jokes.

To finish this section you need to get to level 6 of mischief. You’ll be getting it every time you do a prank so you’ll be further along naturally.

To keep gaining the skill do the computer interactions, do mischief social interactions or read those skill books some more.

Stage Four: Chief of Mischief

The next thing you need to do is clog drains at 3 different homes. This is so diabolical, who goes around to people’s houses and clogs their sinks?

To do this head to any lot where sims live and knock on the door. If they let you in, head to their bathroom or kitchen and click on their sink and choose clog drain. This can also work on tubs or showers!

You just need to do this at 3 different households. I suggest you do the Pancakes, the Goths, and Johnny Zest.

When your sim reaches level 3 of the mischief skill they are going to unlock the ability to purchase a voodoo doll. You’ll find this interaction on a computer under order and it’ll appear in your sim’s inventory.

Once you have this in your sim’s inventory you’ll need to bind it to someone. You click on the voodoo doll in your sim’s inventory and choose bind to and a menu will appear letting you choose any sim that is on your lot.

Once the doll is bound to another sim, in this case Bob Pancakes, you can start performing voodoo.

You have four options and each will give a sim a +2 moodlet that lasts four hours.

  • Tickle: +2 Uncomfortable Moodlet
  • Frolic: +2 Playful Moodlet
  • Poke: +2 Angry Moodlet
  • Soak: +2 Dazed Moodlet

You just need to get your sim to do these different voodoo interactions 5 times!

Finally, you have to max your sim’s mischief skill. If you don’t want to work on it naturally you can cheat it instead. Just type in stats.set_skill_level major_mischief 10 to max it out!

Tormentor Reward Trait

When you manage to finish the sims 4 chief of mischief aspiration your sim will get the tormentor reward trait. This trait’s description says “Tormentors can sabotage almost anything, be it an object, or another sim’s best efforts.”

When you do this to an object, a sim can use it but it will break either afterwards or during. For a computer it broke a few minutes into them playing and for a stove it broke when they finished cooking their meal.

When you sabotage a sim they’ll get a +1 dazed moodlet that lasts 2 hours which makes it hard for them to do anything.
