  • Describe the issue you are experiencing: Walking animation is stuttering similar to the old encumbrance bug, however, this bug seems to happen well before over-encumbrance threshold has been hit. This only happened after equipping new Tier 5 Bags. I am also not able to fast travel even with my weight being (as of writing) 1265.7 / 1396.2. Using an Encumbrance potion does allow me to travel.
  • Is this a bug or an exploit: Bug
  • (if a bug) How did the issue effect your gameplay: Can’t move effectively or travel even when weight limit has not been reached.
  • (if a bug) Were you able to recover from the issue: No

  • What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced: Pick up items until near weight limit, at an undetermined point the animation begins to glitch. At the time of writing, the threshold is precisely 142.5 wt under my maximum carry weight. Max being 1396.2, the glitch appears at 1253.7.

This has been fixed as of 11/2/2021, and no longer present for my character.
