People walking around with packs on their backs: What are they doing? AFK trading?

[XDeadzX]

I see a bunch of them, walking around with packs. Going between many points sometimes, automatically. Is this a way to train the trading skill AFK? If so, how do I do it?

If not, what is it?

It is a trade item, but they are strength training. Increasing your strength level increases your max weight capacity.

[XDeadzX]

Where would one obtain it? Which item is it?

Just carry anything while on foot?

[XDeadzX]

Yup, that's indeed how. Carry any trade item while on foot and you train strength.

Have a look.

It needs to be specifically a trade item that you buy from the Trader NPC (or one you harvest in the wild).

Trade items that you get as drops, such as coins or amber and such do not count.

I wish you could level strength every time you are carrying an item that has the same effect on your movement, like some quest items (sack of grain, lost lamb, etc).

It feels very artificial to level strength like that (because if you are into trading, you'll be using a mount/wagon as soon as you can).

No if you want strengh you use a pack , but if are looking for more stamina just running around without a pack is the way to go some people afk while they loop a path . same if you want strengh . but is more efficient to just run .

You're right. My mistake. Fixed my initial comment.

to loop a path by the way open map choose a way point then hover mouse to your current location you will see a box that says loop press it n the gps will turn green thats it just make sure you wont get stuck or kill by mobs if u get stuck mainly when you are turning back no matter if you keep running in place you will not get exp for whatever you doing so memorized a loop path .
