Despite Henry of Skalitz’s ability to carry all kinds of weapons and armor, there will be a time in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 when players must learn how to increase their carrying weight. Even though this may seem like a complex process, the steps to do it are easy to follow.
KCD2’s aim is to be as realistic as possible, so most of Henry’s stats can be improved through training. This also applies to carrying more weight, but you need to follow several steps to be more successful. That’s why it is time to see how to increase carrying weight in the game.
KCD2 - How to Increase Carry Capacity
Since the game’s goal is to be realistic, the only way to increase your carry capacity in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is to increase your strength. To improve this stat, you must engage in different forms of combat. You can increase your strength even further by wearing heavy armor and weapons.
Some of the most efficient techniques to increase your strength are hunting animals or fighting other people. If that is not an option, you can also try to find a combat master, such as the one in the Romani Nomads Camp. Once you go there, look for Tomcat and ask him to train with you. Aside from increasing your strength, you will also learn to perform better in combat and even learn new moves.
Perks Related to Carrying Weights
Once you increase your strength, your maximum carrying capacity will increase by 10 for every 1 STR. This may not be enough for some people, so Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 will allow you to increase this even more by getting these perks:
- Pack Mule - You will need 8 Strength Points, and after unlocking it, your carrying capacity will increase by 8 pounds.
- Strong as a Bull - You will need 12 Strength Points, and after unlocking it, your carrying capacity will increase by 12 pounds.
- Well-Built - You will need 16 Strength Points, and after unlocking it, your carrying capacity will increase by 12 pounds per every point of strength (instead of 10).
Using Your Horse
Assuming that everything mentioned above is insufficient and you want to know how to increase the carrying weight in KCD2 even more, you can use your horse. Once you get a horse, you can transfer a given item you do not want to the saddlebag.
The good news is that you do not need to be near the horse to do it. Also, remember that you can increase the horse’s carrying capacity by upgrading its saddles.
