How To Increase Inventory Space in New World
In addition to food buffs that you can used while Mining for extra luck, you may find yourself getting full bags and becoming encumbered. Being encumbered means you will walk instead of run, and you will not be able to recall to an inn or fast travel. You may want to really increase your max weight in New World. This can be quite a set back when trying to make a big haul of mining ore and motes before you head back to town.
You are able to get an additional bag to add to your max weight, but chances are you already have one. If this is the case, there is still another emergency consumable you can use.
Luckily, there are currently 3 encumbrance potions you can chug to increase your encumbrance amount for a period of time. This may be just enough to farm more and recall with all your goodies. Unfortunately we do not have the data quite yet on exactly how much encumbrance limit is increased per potion, but will update this table when the data is available.
Tier | Potion Name | Encumbrance Limit Increase | Duration | Level Req. |
3 | Strong Encumbrance Potion | +50 Weight Limit | 120 secs | 20 |
4 | Powerful Encumbrance Potion | +75 Weight Limit | 150 secs | 40 |
5 | Infused Encumbrance Potion | +100 Weight Limit | 180 secs | 60 |
