I just discovered that I can’t use the sacrificial stone while over encumbered - on PS5. I can however use the Thaumaturgy bench. I hope this was unintended but I fear it isn’t.

Edit: Crap!
Just read this in the patch notes. Something about preventing excessively long runs to the sacrificial stone???

I run an encumbrance build 90% of the time. My sacrificial stone is just outside the summoning place. I don’t understand this. I do understand how excessively inconvenient this for those also running an encumbrance build. Just a reminder for the devs: you just made encumbrance builds super easy to achieve thru the new “attribute” system - so why this now?

Edit 2: only had my phone at the time. Hard to type or copy and paste. Here is the point from patch notes:

  • Added a check to prevent ritual activation if you are over encumbered. This should prevent excessively long travel times to reach ritual locations.

Well as long as they have Beast of Burden that is a really dumb check just saying.

No doubt. After countless readings I still can’t make sense of it.

“This should prevent excessively long travel times to reach ritual locations.”

Surely I’m not the only one who placed their sacrificial stone next to a thrall camp? Not that it matters, because I run beast of burden.

OMG I’m about ready to rage quit over this change. My entire gameplay is predicated on the perk option to be able to move freely when “over encumbered”. Playing on private servers that only allow a certain number of bases made and blocks used to avoid lag, it’s almost necessary to have one person in your clan who can move about with a bunch of stuff. I hope a bunch of people are complaining all over so they change it back.
