Sleep (SLP) is a derived statistic in Fallout: New Vegas in hardcore mode.

Characteristics

Sleep is a consequential statistic of the total time you've spent awake: the longer you are awake, the higher your sleep value becomes.

Beverages containing caffeine will reduce this value, as will having a break by taking a nap. Furthermore, sleeping in a bed you own or have rented will give you the Well Rested bonus for 12 hours.

As your sleep deprivation worsens your stats will be negatively impacted, starting with your Agility. Not sleeping for two weeks will cause you to die.

Stages of Sleep Deprivation

Stages Value Effects
Minor Sleep Deprivation 200-399 Agility -1
Advanced Sleep Deprivation 400-599 Intelligence -1, Agility -2
Critical Sleep Deprivation 600-799 Endurance -1, Intelligence -2, Agility -3
Deadly Sleep Deprivation 800-999 Endurance -2, Intelligence -2, Agility -3
Fatal Sleep Deprivation 1000 DEATH

Notes

  • Although there are some consumable items that help reduce SLP deprivation, attempting gameplay without sleep may not be possible unless you are prepared to skip a few quests that require sleeping. The effects of not sleeping, that is surviving on caffeine based consumables or chems, is uncertain, however, no known ill effects have been reported.
  • In Hardcore mode, Completing the initial quest of any of the DLC packs will bring your SLP meter to 0 and disable it.
