The Gunny Sack is a large sack sewn from coarse burlap. It is a crafted container carried in one hand. It holds a big load for its weight, which makes it handy for hauling goods back to a base.

Its strength is size at a low weight. Its cost is that it fills a hand and takes off only half the weight of what is inside. It suits short trips, such as moving loot from a car to a shelf.

The sack is made by hand with the Sew Gunny Sack recipe. It needs two Burlap Piece, a needle and thread. The Tailor is the best occupation for bags and containers. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.

Carrying


The sack holds 20 units and takes 50 percent off the weight of its contents. It is held in a hand, so it takes the place of a weapon while carried. It slows running only a little.

The Hide Sack, the Tarp Sack and the Garbage Bag all hold 20 at the same weight relief. The plain Sack holds 15. A Hiking Backpack holds 20 as well, but it sits on the back and takes 75 percent off. The sack is best as a hauler, while the backpack stays the travel bag.

Tailoring


Sewing the sack takes two Burlap Piece, a needle and thread. It needs Tailoring at level 1, and the needle is kept. The Rip Large Sack recipe turns the sack back into two Burlap Piece. That makes it easy to recover the cloth from a sack that is no longer needed.

Locations


The sack comes only from crafting. The Sew Gunny Sack recipe makes one from burlap with a needle and thread at Tailoring level 1.

Notes


  • Ripping the sack returns both Burlap Piece used to make it.
  • The burlap burns, so a spare sack can serve as tinder or fuel for a fire.
  • A sack works well for carrying loot from a car to a base.
