Default Str vs Agility for encumbrance

I have a caster that I just want to load up with stuff and the only thing I care about is: I don't want their movement speed affected. Would I max str first and then agi? Or max Agi, then Str?

thanks

Strength increases the amount of weight you can carry before you are encumbered and take penalties to your movement speed. Agility does not interact with encumbrance as far as I am aware. So if the goal is to load a character up with gear and prevent loss of movement speed, go for as much strength as possible.

I noticed when I start getting really encumbered, my agi goes to 1 and I can't move without sow.

That's from the encumbrance,it's just an agility penalty.

If you really plan on loading a toon to a very encumbered level,make sure they have a sow pot or j boots

Having a level 5 Bard mule in EC wearing custom dyed fine plate is both practical and satisfying.

My needs have surpassed what my lvl 5 bard can do. I’m trying to make a hybrid mule/farmer that stays adjacent to EC for farm, but can still bounce back into EC for linking WTS’s. My bard is still better for holding massive plat for a big tunnel purchase. I think the tunnel bard is better for purchases but the mule/farmer is better for doing some +pp in between WTS links.
