Formula

Carrying capacity in stones (to go from no burden to light):

10 * floor(2.4*STR + 2.4*STA + 0.8)

For capacity in coins, multiply by 5. Note: Beards and mustaches do add your burden level

Encumbrance Levels

Burden from lightest to greatest:

  • None
  • Light Burden
  • Somewhat Burdened
  • Burdened
  • Heavy Burden
  • Very Heavy Burden
  • Overburdened
  • Very Overburdened
  • Extremely Overburdened
  • Tottering Under Burden
  • Are you even able to move?
  • It's amazing you aren't squashed!

Effects

Encumbrance causes a penalty to evasion starting at Light Burden.[1] Previously, the penalty started at one point of burden.

Changes

There are no racial bonuses or penalties anymore.

Acknowledgements

  • Formula figured out by Hilbert.
  • Simplification by Evran
