Anyone remember how much weight you could wear, before wpf penalties went into action :

go onto the melee damage calculator on here, and you can enter your build and armor values and see if they effect your WPF

So 5 was the maximum... thought it used to be 7

[Tydeus]

(4*hand weight, 2*Helm weight, 1 *body, 1* leg) - 10. Any calculator not using this is long outdated.

Not the wpf penalites per item.

I asked for which for the exact amount of weight you could wear in total, before wpf penalties takes place.

[korppis]

You can't tell the exact amount, since headgear and gloves affect more than their weight. It's effective weight of 10, you can get that for example with gear that weights 7 in total, or without gloves and helmet with gear that weight 10.

[Osiris]

As tydeus said its 10 but to get that you have to double the weight of helmet and 4x the weight of gloves

so you could wear this

Nordic Fighters Helmet = 3 Weight
Mail Gauntlets = 2 Weight
Leather Jerkin = 3.9 Weight
Leather boots = 0.8 Weight

Total = 9.7 So under the weight where you start to take penalties

thx i get it now

(4*hand weight, 2*Helm weight, 1 *body, 1* leg) - 10. Any calculator not using this is long outdated.

The penalty is applied as a percentage, correct?

So if you had (4*hand weight, 2*Helm weight, 1 *body, 1* leg =11)-10 = 1, that is a 1% penalty?
Similarly (4*hand weight, 2*Helm weight, 1 *body, 1* leg =25)-10 = 15, 15% penalty?
And (4*hand weight, 2*Helm weight, 1 *body, 1* leg =40)-10 = 30, 30% penalty?

And your WPF would look like (assuming 100 WPF)
99 WPF
85 WPF
70 WPF
