Weight is an attribute and mechanic in Outward, related to the Inventory, Equipment, Stamina and Movement Speed mechanics.
Overview
All equipment and items have weight, even Silver 
, 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.
Exceeding maximum weight will also increase Stamina use costs, and reduce the rate of stamina regeneration.
Burden Ratios
As mentioned above there are three types of weight burdens, and each of them applies a different reduction to Movement Speed depending on the weight, or % of weight over the limit for Pouches and Bags.
Total Weight:
Total weight includes worn equipment, and all items in the pouch or bag.
At 30kg, the player will begin to slow down. The speed reduction is determined by the following formula:
Speed Reduction % = (TotalWeight / 30) * -0.02
Pouch Weight:
| Overweight % | Speed Reduction |
|---|---|
| ~10% over | -15% |
| ~50% over | -63% |
| 100% over | -100% |
Bag Weight:
| Overweight % | Speed Reduction |
|---|---|
| ~6% over | -10% |
| ~11% over | -20% |
| ~15% over | -30% |
| ~19% over | -40% |
| ~22% over | -50% |
| ~29% over | -75% |
| ~34% over | -100% |
Movement Speed Bonus
Movement Speed bonuses are applied additively with Bag and Pouch burdens. This means that if you have a 50% speed bonus, and -100% reduction from either Bag or Pouch overweight, you will now have -50% movement speed and will still be able to move. The reduction from Total Weight has no limit, but it applies linearly. Players have been able to carry as much as 940kg (with 65% bonus) before reaching -100% speed, with only one of the Burden statuses active. If both Bag and Pouch overweight statuses are active, players will be unable to avoid reaching -100% speed before long.
