Roblox Abyss – How to Increase Weight and Storage

Weight and Storage capacity are major problems for Abyss beginners. Your backpack can store fish up to the Tube‘s maximum weight stat. If your catch’s total weight exceeds the Tube’s limit, you must either sell or upgrade your gear. There is also a Portable Stash, where you can deposit and withdraw fish anytime. However, it also has a limit. Luckily, you can increase Weight and Storage in Abyss, and this article will guide you to do so.

Why Increase Weight and Storage

You can find your current Weight stat in the bottom-left corner of the screen, below the Oxygen indicator. Increasing Weight and Storage helps you progress smoothly in-game. Here are some of the reasons to increase them:

• More Weight allows carrying more fish, heavy ones, and rarer species. You will be able to earn more income in a single run.
• Carrying items more than your backpack’s capacity slows your movement speed and depletes oxygen rapidly.
• Increasing Storage lets you store plenty of fish that you don’t want to sell.
• A higher Weight stat lets you explore more regions in a single run without having to go to the base and sell them frequently.
• Some quests require carrying heavy items; For instance, the Diver’s delivery quests. Therefore, increase your weight as soon as possible for a smooth in-game progression.

In the next section, you can find all the ways to increase Weight and Storage.

4 Ways to Increase Weight and Storage in Abyss

Below are all the ways to increase your Weight and Storage in Abyss:

1. Artifacts

Artifacts are in-game items that provide various buffs to your character. Some artifacts also increase your weight, allowing you to carry more items in your backpack. Here is the list of all the artifacts that buff your weight stat:

Artifacts	Rarity	Weight Buff	How to Get
Fish Crate	Uncommon	Range: +15 kg to 33 kg	Crack Cactus Geode (26% drop rate)
Lantern	Uncommon	Range: +28 kg to 46 kg	Rooted Geode (30% drop rate)
Fish Bag	Rare	Range: +8 kg to 20 kg	Crack Mossy Geode (drop rate 14%)
Eternal Crystal	Legendary	Range: +25 kg to 37 kg	Rooted Geode (3.5%)

2. Buy Better Tubes

Better Tubes have higher Oxygen, max depth, speed, and Weight stats. So, save your money and buy better Tubes if you want more Weight for your backpack. However, purchasing Tubes only for the Weight stat isn’t an ideal investment. Here are some of the best Tubes for better gameplay:

3. Getting the Best Races

Races provide various buffs and passive effects, including the Weight buff. Out of 16 Races, five can buff your carry weight. Here are their details:

Race	Rarity	Weight Buff
Monkey	Uncommon	10% increase
Puffer	Rare	15% increase
Narwhal	Rare	15% increase
Crab	Rare	15% increase
Kraken	Mythical	20% increase

You can reroll races using Star Shards in two ways: Lucky and Normal. Check out our separate article for a guide to rerolling races.

4. Upgrade Portable Stash

You can find Portable Stash in all locations: Forgotten Dome, Ancient Sands, and Spirit Roots. It is where you can deposit and withdraw the fish you don’t want to sell or save for later. Since it is your personal stash, other players won’t be able to view it or steal from it. Initially, it can accommodate up to a maximum of 8 fish. However, you can upgrade it to store more.

While you can access it in any location, you can upgrade it only by interacting with the Billy NPC. He is located in the Forgotten Dome. Here is a step-by-step guide:

1. Find Billy NPC in the Forgotten Dome. He is near the Scientist NPC, in front of a blue cargo.
2. Approach him and press the “E” key on your keyboard to open the action prompts.
3. Click the Upgrade my storage action prompt.
4. Pay the required amount and upgrade the storage.

Every upgrade increases the Portable Stash’s capacity by eight. Here are the details:
