Portable Hole Capacity

Anubis

First Post
What is the capacity of a Portable Hole? The DMG gives a really vague and unusable figure (6x6x10). I have no idea how to translate weapons, armor, or coins into cubic feet (in fact, I seriously doubt there are many DMs out there who could, that and it would cause unnecessary lag during a game to figure such things), so how much can a Portable Hole really carry?

For the most part? Don't worry about it too much unless you plan on putting water in there or something where the volume is especially important - a 6-foot diameter circle, 10 feet deep, is about the cargo capacity of a standard cargo van (one with no back seats); you can actually fit a fair amount into such a space... although it might take an age to get something specific out (it opens up into a space of those dimensions - it doesn't hold a number of objects totalling that much volume) unlike with a Handy Haversack.

But really - it's a 20,000 gp item that's not particularly useful in most combat situtations (where min/maxing is commonly focused) - be lienient.
 

All that matters is that it contains 8006 litres of beer (the equivalent of 940 cases of beer).

Obviously, when it is being used properly, NOTHING will fit in it, because it will already be full of beer.
