Backpacks
Choosing your type of backpack is extremely important for the journey in Outward. Backpacks allow you to carry crucial items and equipment in the player's inventory.
Equipping most backpacks will slow the player's dodge roll unless specified otherwise, or if the player has the Feather Dodge skill.
You can hang a lantern from most backpacks by simply moving the lantern from your pocket to the pack, thereby freeing up your offhand.
Inventory Protection
Inventory Protection is a stat listed on the Wiki for certain Backpacks. When you are hit from behind by enemies, items in your Backpack will take some durability damage. Inventory Protection works similarly to Protection 
, except it reduces that durability damage to the items in your backpack instead of reducing damage to your health.
