Weight limit base formula
The base maximum carry weight is calculated with the following formula:
- (25+(Strength*25))/2.2. An average character with a Strength equal to 5 will then be able to carry 67 kilograms. 10 Strength equals to 124 kilograms.
Small Frame Trait
If you have the Small Frame trait, then your base carry weight is (25+(Strength*15))/2.2 kilograms. An average character with a Strength equal to 5 will then be able to carry 45 kilograms.
Carry weight limit table
| Strength | Carry weight | Carry weight with Small Frame |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 22 | 18 |
| 2 | 33 | 24 |
| 3 | 45 | 31 |
| 4 | 56 | 38 |
| 5 | 67 | 45 |
| 6 | 79 | 52 |
| 7 | 90 | 58 |
| 8 | 101 | 65 |
| 9 | 113 | 72 |
| 10 | 124 | 79 |
Penalties
If you carry more than the usual weight you can carry, you will be slowed down - only able to walk. If you carry even more than this, you will not be able to move at all.
Please note that even if you carry your exact weight limit you might be over weighted, due to grams that might make your carry weight appearing lower than it seem. For example, 150/150 kilograms when it's in fact 150.6/150 kilograms.
