Skyrim: Special Edition brings a prettier Skyrim to Xbox One and PlayStation 4, but many people are hyped about the fact that console players can now use mods to change up their games. While mods are somewhat limited on console, there’s still a good range to choose from. Let’s take a look at a few of the best.
Bethesda Softworks
![]() Ring of Increased Carry Weight (PS4 and Xbox One)
You’ll never be overburdened again with this mod. It adds a ring with 1,000 extra carry weight, and a second with 1,000,000 carry weight. You can purchase the rings for 200 GP from Belethor’s General Goods in Whiterun.
Falskaar (Xbox One)
This mod adds an entirely new land mass and questline for you to explore. It’s all fully voice acted and features new spells, a new shout, and about 30 hours of new content. It’s a beautiful display of modder creativity.
Yet my carry weight is currently 128 pounds. I have no idea where this extra weight is coming from. I wear heavy armor, full set, and have the conditioning perk. When I put on all my armor and weapons, in any order (tried every order I can think of), my carry weight jumps to 162 pounds.

Phenderix Magic Evolved (PS4 and Xbox One)
The Phenderix Magic Evolved mod adds 370 new spells to your spellbooks. There’s a plethora of new elemental spells, and you’ll be able to summon any creature you may have encountered in Skyrim. It offers new ways to use spells, too. You can turn enemies into helpless animals, or send them on a journey through space and time.
Power Greatswords (Xbox One)
Folks love a good treasure hunt, and that’s exactly what you’re getting in the Power Greatswords mod. The mod places four two-handed great swords into the world for you to find (although the modder does give you a few clues). The swords all have custom textures and glow in the dark for great effect.
The Forgotten City (Xbox One)
The Forgotten City’s brand new six- to to seven-hour story sees adventurers solving a murder mystery in a city deep beneath the earth. It’s fully voiced and boasts an original soundtrack. On top of that, the story is non-linear, forcing you to even travel through time and navigate the twists and turns of moral dilemma. It’s an impressive feat in modding, to be sure.
Unofficial Skyrim: Special Edition Patch (Xbox One)
Skyrim might have gotten an overhaul, but that doesn’t mean the game is free of flaws. This patch helps to solve that by fixing all bugs not caught by Bethesda’s developers. The mod is frequently updated, and they even provide a changelog so you can track which bugs have been fixed.
Rich Merchants of Skyrim: Special Edition (PS4 and Xbox One)
This mod fixes a simple, but often highly annoying problem players experience in the game — broke merchants. It’s pretty frustrating when you’re trying to sell off the sweet treasure you’ve just uncovered, only to find that most of the merchants in town can’t even afford to take it off your hands. The Rich Merchants mod solves that by increasing merchants’ gold counts to 10,000.
Just Walk: No Fast Travel (PS4 and Xbox One)
If you’re serious about immersion in your Skyrim games, look no further than the Just Walk mod which, well, forces you to walk everywhere rather than resort to Fast Travel. It blocks fast travel messages and disables fast travel options for most of the base game. If you’re looking to explore, there’s no better mod than this one right here.
Invincible Dogs of Skyrim (PS4 and Xbox One)
Modder Micahghost made this as a memorial for his own late husky pup. It makes sure that your dog companions can’t be killed, and introduces a number of new types of dogs for you to befriend. We think that’s mighty nice.
Alternate Start: Live Another Life (Xbox One)
You’ve probably played through Skryim at least twice. If that’s the case, you might be sick of the opening hour of the game in which you’re a convict headed to the chopping block. Alternate Start gives you a few more options at the beginning of the game to make things a bit more interesting. The mod lets you skip Helgen altogether and choose from a number of different backgrounds that will ultimately affect your character’s story.

Merge with Attributes?[edit]
Merge with Attributes? Seems pointless to have a separate page — Unsigned comment by 107.0.114.50 (talk) at 12:06 on 17 November 2011
A benefit of being overencumbered?[edit]
Is it just me - or does being overencumbered stop you from taking damage when jumping off mountains? I managed to go very slowly down (almost like featherfall) when leaping off? Bobbathejobba 19:40, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
Quest Items don't effect weight[edit]
Even though quest items say they have weight they don't actually add to your total encumbrance. If you don't believe drop everything in your inventory and you will still have quest items with wait, but you will have 0 weight. Babytoke 21:30, 20 November 2011 (UTC)
Max weight[edit]
First question, is there a maximum non-enchantment assisted encumbrance allowed (500 LBS was the previous Elder Scrolls Max)?
Second question, is there an absolute encumbrance that will keep you from even moving (Similar to Fallout New Vegas, over encumbered would slow you to a walk, but attaining even more weight would remove your ability to even walk.)?--Zar Pof 03:53, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
Running Glitch[edit]
I'd like to get this confirmed, but I have discovered that on the PS3 version, while you are overencumbered, if you switch from first-person view to third-person view, you will start sprinting (moving at full sprint speed), and will continue to do so, even after your stamina is deplete, as long as you keep moving. 216.59.247.35 04:35, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

Total: 1269
Feel free to edit and make this more clear or better looking, I'm not sure if there's any rules for that, I just figured this could be useful. If not, delete it from the talk page. 86.92.141.125 21:39, 19 February 2012 (UTC)
Should the main article include workarounds?[edit]
The weight restriction can be circumvented by using a thrall. While the subject is dead, it is possible to store loot in large quantities (tested at >2,000), and when revived via the Dead Thrall spell, the zombie may groan a little, but walks and fast-travels just fine.
And if this information should be published, should it also appear on the Dead Thrall page?

Suggestion of Arvak (DG)?[edit]
With the addition of 'Summon Arvak', would mentioning that using Arvak to help travel when encumbered be good? --Satherian (talk) 21:20, 25 June 2013 (GMT)
How to use commands to permanently increase your carry weight[edit]
So I tried the console command player.setAV carryweight 999 to increase my carry weight, but every time I load a save it gets undone. Can I do this permanently? — Unsigned comment by Warrior916 (talk • contribs) at 16:25 on 8 August 2013
Follower carry weight limit bug[edit]
My Skyrim is very heavily modded, but has anyone else encountered a bug where any fortify carry weight enchantment is dropped on a follower when you trade them an item? I've been using console getAVinfo to try and test this. It seems to be a game engine bug as it affects multiple different mod items as well as the vanilla 'Dwarven boots of hauling'. Trading anything back to the follower that they equip seems to correct the bug by making the game refresh the buff list. My mods that may be affecting this are: Bandolier - Bags and Pouches, Ultimate Follower Overhaul and Frostfall. I'll make time to test with vanilla skyrim later, but in the meantime if anyone has a vanilla copy ready to go already and can reproduce this, I recommend we add it under the bug section. --DUc0N (talk) 22:25, 5 February 2014 (GMT)
Unlimited Carry Weight Skyrim
Run indefinitely with Forward Power Attack Cancelling[edit]
I wish to add a few details about the forward power attack trick, but I don't know if it is relevant to the article, as it may be an exploit rather than a workaround : Basically, it enables you to run normally and continuously when overencumbered.
1 Cancel the power attack before it's completed by sheathing your weapon. 2 During the sheathing animation, you character will run normally. 2.1 The run duration depends on the cancel timing. It seems cancelling when the weapon is held above the head gives the longest duration. 2.2 Running speed is determined by the weapon's attack speed. Daggers give the fastest speed and dual flurry does increase it further. I didn't try with elemental fury, but I suppose it would be even faster. 3 If you cancel the attack early enough, it will cost no stamina.
As a consequence, you can run indefinitely by power attacking, sheathing, unsheathing, power attacking, and so on. Black dog (talk) 10:08, 3 June 2015 (UTC)
alternative to thralls[edit]
dead-thrall is fine for those at master conjuration, but for those that arent: the staves/staffs of resurrection spells do not disintergrate the target when it dies again. not practical for fast travel as the spell wil wear off some time during travel and most of the time 'pockets the corpse' will dissapear. but if you are running round with a staff a dead body can be infinetly revived as luggage to bypass encumberment. 203.206.241.153 03:06, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
Maximum Carry Weight While on a Horse[edit]
I've noticed that if you get to a high enough weight, your Horse will become Encumbered as well. This was not an issue for me as I was in the 4,000 and it was just fine, but recently the game has been glitching out on me and even when my weight is in the 1,000's he's still Encumbered. Any recommendations on how to fix this. And why is there no mention of the Horse's Carry Weight Capacity on the main page? — Unsigned comment by 69.138.173.47 (talk) at 04:06 on 15 August 2015 (UTC)
Found a bug with carry weight by eating a huge number of ingredients[edit]
I am on the Xbox 360.
I had just gotten all the perks populated in the Alchemy perks tree so I started to gobble a huge number of ingredients in my inventory for which I did not know all 4 properties. I am at level 122, have a stamina and magic of 500, and have a health of 560.
Prior to eating all of these ingredients all at once in the Arch Mage's room in front of the Alchemy Lab table without exiting the character menu for the effects to wear off, my carry weight limit was about 500 plus.
When I was finished this goofy meal of discovering ingredient properties, my carry weight had dropped to 246, which, according to information on this site, is lower than initial starting character when you begin a new game.
Curiously, I have a set of leather boots with 30 CW bonus, and a set of gloves with 24 CW bonus and may have had these equipped when I had eaten all of this stuff: 30+24 = 54, and 300 - 54 = 246, so when I now have these equipped, I just get back to having new game carry weight of 300 exactly.
I equipped enchanted clothing of a gold ring that I newly enchanted with a huge CW bonus in order to move around properly then tried various methods of determining what was wrong. My TV screen for 10 to 30 minutes has been flashing slightly a tinge of red every few seconds to indicate some lasting effects have happened after doing this deed / these actions.
My character menu Magic, Active Effects properties menu lists NOTHING negative--no poisons, no diseases, no negative spells, etc.
Here is the list of things that I have tried to do to so far cure this trouble:
Note that at the Mage's College of Winterhold I have the ongoing bug of not being able to sleep or wait in my dorm room having been asked to leave by a fellow student mage, Onmund, who did not like me due to being a werewolf, being a thieves guild member, having a conjured thrall with me, bringing a vampire Serana into my room, and for having discovered the eye of Magnus at the excavation site of Saarthal. -- see the discussion page for cannot sleep while being asked to leave.
I shall reload my prior permanent save at level 62, magic 260, health 400, stamina 300, where I had a CW of 400 since all the recent 3 tainted AUTO saved games have the bugged CW within. 198.91.176.251 08:47, 14 March 2017 (UTC)
Can't use a carriage when overencumbered?[edit]Skyrim Carry Weight Mod Not Working
I was hoping that paying for a carriage ride would be the same as riding a horse. But after clicking 'use carriage' and climbing on board, nothing happened. The 'Use carriage' action is still displayed. Clicking it again just means I exit the carriage and the driver gets grumpy and says he can't wait forever. Should this be added to the page? (Would've saved me a bit of aggro. Now looking at a long, slow walk or lot of fast travelling to bring my Dwemer Cogs to the College at Winterhold). This is on PC Special Edition via Steam. 209.97.183.167 19:09, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
Actual total amount change after Vampire lord transformation while survival mode is on[edit]Infinite Carry Weight Skyrim Mod
Similar to 'Vampire Lord Revert Weight Bug' described here[1]. But happens only after first transformation, further transformations don't influence total carry weight capacity. Character has 200 Stamina, normal carry weight value is equal to 200 as well. Depending on the save file I used for the first transformation to happen for the same character, carry weight capacity could either be decreased, 200 -> 163, or increased 200 -> 24x. Carry weight enchantmets (rings, amulets, CC bags) were either used or not during transformation, no impact on final result. If turning CC Survival Mode off after transformation, total carry weight amount changes to 350. When turning CC SM on back, total carry weight amount changes to the changed one (163, 24x, etc.)
Character is a cured werewolf (quest with witch's head to be burned is finished before character became a Vampire lord) - there were no carry weight related issues during and after werewolf transformations.
No mods are installed. Several creations from CC are installed. PC platform. 'player.restoreav carryweight 1000' doesn't impact changes occured after transformation. — Unsigned comment by 136.169.56.3 (talk) at 19:45 on 20 July 2019 (UTC)
