Learn how to increase your weight limit in stalker 2 heart of chornobyl using artifacts and armor upgrades. Manage your inventory effectively.
The weight limit in stalker 2 heart of chornobyl is represented by a three-section bar: green, yellow, and red. In the green section, you can run and jump without restriction. The yellow section slows your running speed, reduces jump height, and causes stamina to deplete faster while regenerating slower. If your weight limit enters the red section, you will be unable to move, making you vulnerable to enemies.
The heaviest items are typically weapons and armor, but a large quantity of bullets or food can also significantly impact your weight. It is generally recommended to carry only 5 or 6 pieces of food, a few anti-radiation drinks (vodka), and a few stamina drinks, storing any excess in your stash box back in town. Your weight limit can be found in the bottom right of the inventory screen, with a weight icon pop-up in the bottom left indicating encumbrance: white means slow, and red means you cannot move.
