Encumbrance Mechanic

In Baldur's Gate 3, there is an Encumbrance Mechanic that has three different levels of severity. Players at maximum encumbrance can no longer perform certain actions. Always remember to manage your inventory accordingly.

At the first level, you are encumbered. Your Movement speed is reduced and your Jump distance is halved.

Equipment Features

Some Armor pieces contain Equipment Features, these provide passive effects to the wielder of the corresponding weapon. Some Equipment Features may provide effects useful for any character, but other Equipment Features only serve as a boost for a specific action or spell, and may not stack if a character equips two pieces of Equipment with the same Equipment Feature, so it is recommended to equip your party wisely. Also consider that some Weapons and Accessories may provide Equipment Features as well.
