Carry weight's gonna be your constant companion through cyrodiil, but there's some reliable ways to handle it. The tricky part is timing your storage runs since containers in cities reset after three days, though guild halls are usually safe. For the most consistent results, grab yourself a house in the imperial city or bruma - the basement chests never reset and you can fast travel there when you're getting close to capacity. Maybe interesting: the unlimited carry weight glitch still works if you're into that sort of thing, just drop an item and pick it up while holding the activate button.

If you're playing it straight, focus on boosting your strength attribute early on and keep an eye out for feather enchanted gear since they stack nicely. The mages guild halls are perfect for temporary dumps while you're out exploring, just remember to grab your stuff before moving on to the next city. Combat gets way smoother when you're not constantly checking your weight, so it's worth taking some time to set up your storage system early. Good to know: those hidden containers near the major quest locations stay persistent, making them perfect for stashing extra gear during longer dungeon runs, just mark them on your map so you don't forget where you left things.
