**Total Equipment Weight**: the weight of each equipped item is added up, the total doubled, then multiplied by a hundredth of the down-pull multiplier.
**Total Equipment Weight (Necro Edit)**: the weight of each equipped item is added up, the total doubled, then multiplied by a hundredth of the down-pull multiplier.

**Encumbrance Percentage**: the actor's encumbrance percentage (carrying 120 of 300 = 40% or 0.4) is multiplied by triple the down-pull multiplier.
