Carrying capacity

From bg3.wiki

Carrying capacity is the measurement of how much weight a character can carry.

  • Nearing this value applies penalties to movement and other abilities;
    • Exceeding 80% of this value will cause EncumberedEncumbered.
    • Exceeding 93.33% (repeating, of course) of this value will cause Heavily EncumberedHeavily Encumbered.
    • Exceeding 100% of this value (without reducing the limit) is not generally intended, though it is sometimes possible with Containers.
  • Initially calculated as (40+10×Strength)kg or equivalently (80+20×Strength)lb, and will update accordingly whenever Strength changes.
    • This value can then be multiplied by the single highest modifier in the table below; multiple effects do not stack, except in the case of Vaprak's GreedVaprak's Greed and Human VersatilityHuman Versatility.
      • For instance, a character with 27 Strength and Bull's StrengthBull's Strength will have 2.00×(40+(10×27))kg=620kg (or 1240 lbs) of carrying capacity; additionally being a Human, becoming ReducedReduced or EnlargedEnlarged, or gaining Elixir of The ColossusElixir of The Colossus or Aspect of the Beast: BearAspect of the Beast: Bear will not further change this value.
      • As a result, Humans are effectively immune to carrying capacity reductions.
