WoTC used a increasing graduation on their weight totals. However, using the following formula works as is for the stats below 21: Heavy load = Str Score + Str Bonus in stone. Run at X3 Medium load would be half the heavy load and would reduce movement by 10' for every portion of 30' the character has. {in keeping with no tables <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> }. Run at X4Beyond 21 it gets harder to scale, but given the weights of stuff I don't see any problem with a Str 29 character's heavy load weighing in at only 560 pounds instead of 1,400... especially since this scale is for a Medium creature. 38 Stones would be a medium load for a Large critter with this strength.Regarding the Str penalty, I don't think its a bad thing to have a penalty to Climb due to a low Str score. In my above, a Str 8 Gent would have a penalty of -5. This would overlap with other armor check penalties. Of course, you could simply use the Str bonus as I did with the heavy load formula above.</blockquote>
