Really depends on how much you intend to keep on it. Personally i carry 150 to 200 pounds of gear, plus whatever resources i am gathering. If you're using it with refining forges you need to have the weight to hold the rider plus the weight of the forges contents, so 100 wood plus what, 1200 pounds of metal? I'd guess 1500 weight is a good start.

OMG is too heavy , I thought that about 600 weight i would deal well ... thanks for place me in reality ...:P

I have thought about doing a multipurpose base with a decent amount of auto-turrets and with the capacity of transferring good amounts of metal ... 1500weight would be good?

Not really sure exactly. Just got my own paracer base started, but i know about 1200 in metal is what i could haul back on foot with dinos following and carrying some to stuff in a single forge. You could skimp on gear, probably dont need full fur so thats like 40 weight off yourself, maybe use sparkpowder instead of wood, or just thatch, which the paracer can gather as it goes, for fueling the forge. 600 is rather easy to get, i just tamed a 112 and that is where it started, though i think 400 is the actual base weight.

Edit: Seems i got the weight of metal wrong, by a lot. Its 1 pound per raw metal. My now 900 weight paracer can hold 450 metal in the forge plus 100 wood and my guy and is almost at the 900. You might want to aim for more like 2500 if you plan on keeping the forge full and having storage as well.
