Weight is an attribute and mechanic in Outward, related to the Inventory, Equipment and Movement Speed mechanics.

Overview

All equipment and items have weight, even Silver SilverIcon, the currency. Technically, there are really three kinds of weight:

  • Total weight: this includes Equipment, Pouch and Backpack contents.
  • Pouch weight: the player always has a pouch, even without any equipment. By default this is 10kg, but can be increased with an attribute called Pouch Bonus.
  • Bag weight: essentially the same as Pouch weight, but based on the player's backpack.

Exceeding Max Weight

There are several ways the player can exceed various weight limits:

  • Total Weight: When this number exceeds 30kg, the player begins to slow down slightly. This includes worn equipment.
  • Pouch Weight: Exceeding one's pouch limit capacity will result in the Pouch Overweight status.
  • Backpack Weight: Same as Pouch Bonus, except the status is Bag Overweight.

When the player has far too much weight, they will come to a complete stand-still and will be unable to move. However, with Movement Speed bonuses, this limit is greatly increased, and the player will always at least be able to roll.
