There have been some debate over whether the pet wolf helps with burden or not. I conducted an experiment to verify this and have the screen shots showing the three stages of my experiment. The first one I have is the Full Burden.jpg showing nothing on my wolf. The second is Wolf Burden.jpg showing the wolf with over 6k of burden. The third and final shot I have is with the wolf stored called Wolf Stored.jpg. Looking at these, you will see that I want from 8025 to 1750 on my burden.

Just thought inquiring minds would want to know. ;-)

Third shot

There is supposed to be a patch that fixes this coming soon. Its going to be hilarious when SS get weight and archers and melees logon and find they can't move.
