Carrying capacity

Everything you carry has weight. Carry too much and you slow down, and at the limit you can pick up nothing more.

You can carry 50 + 3 × your Strength in weight, more with a pack in your bag. Worn armour, both weapon sets and every stack count; gold weighs nothing. Your inventory shows your load as a bar.

  • The penalty applies to walking, running, swimming, flying and climbing. Attacks and spells are unaffected.
  • Anything that would take you over your limit is refused whole, not split. Quantity prompts offer Max that fits.
  • Tooltips show the weight of one item and of the whole stack.
