The various weapons, space suites, and other miscellaneous items you find quickly add up. Learning how to carry more weight is not only more practical but becomes essential for later portions of the game. Most Bethesda games include some sort of encumbrance mechanic, but\u00a0Starfield\u00a0has added another layer of punishment for those who find themselves over-encumbered. If you are over your max carry capacity, you expend stamina with every step. This not only lowers your stamina meter but also causes damage over time to your health bar. If you are looking to avoid over-encumbrance, here's what you need to do. How to increase your carry capacity in Starfield The best way to increase your maximum carry capacity and haul more weight around in Starfield is by picking up the Weight Lifting skill. This skill is part of the first tier in the Physical skill category, which means that you can pick this valuable skill up very early on. Related: How long is Starfield?: Time to complete the main storyline Players start with a maximum capacity of 135 kilograms at the beginning of\u00a0Starfield. Each level of the Weight Training skill drastically increases the amount of weight you can carry, both in space and on the ground. You can see each level, below: Rank 1 - Increases your total carrying capacity by 10 kilograms Rank 2 - Increases your total carrying capacity by 25 kilograms Rank 3 - Increases your total carrying capacity by 50 kilograms Rank 4
