When you disenchant something you don't get the magnitude of the item you disenchanted, you learn the base enchantment.

That may be the max because when I enchant Fortify Smithing/Alchemy 25% is my max with Enchanting 100 and all the perks except Soul Siphon and Soul Squeezer. Odd that it gives a %-age. It's been a while since I've enchanted anything with Fortify Carry Weight, but I got a numerical value (37 more whatevers). :confused: It's possible the 37 is 25% more than my standard carry weight, though.

I think you can get it up into the 40s with 5 pts in Enchanter and a point into Insightful enchanter.

Edit: Scratch that, I believe you just need 5 pts in enchanter. Insightful Enchanter only affects skill enchants

Well, I've got all the perks except for Soul Siphon and Soul Squeezer and I only got 37 without Resto Glitching a Fortify Enchanting potion. :P

Just doublechecked, you are correct 37 is the max you can 'self-enchant' for fortify carry weight without potions and gear

Unless it goes against your RPing: I'd go ahead and try to grind it up to 100 before you start enchanting your gear. :P Of course, you can always enchant new stuff when you hit 100 and sell the old stuff. At 81 it'll probably sell for more than most vendors have, anyway. :o

Good. I was afraid I'd been shortchanged by a bug. :P
