So far, it's largely of no consequence, since whenever you have weight issues, it's easy to just use Talents to offset that: Hauler or weight reducing Weapon Expertises instead of Strength, so those particular things may need a nerf.As it stands, Battle Weight is a lost cause; anyone who doesn't want STR can simply Base + APT Strength, with Hauler and maybe a weight reducer, to ignore it. (Even the Feather enchant isn't at all necessary) The only builds challenged by BW are builds that want STR anyways. Even if someone runs over, what's the penalty? -2 Hit/Evade per point? You can safely miss 3~5 points and not be bothered, especially if you have an autohit build.
That being said, unless you're keen on considerably nerfing Hauler and most weight reducers, I don't think messing with BW will solve the issue of STR being utterly incompetent when SWA isn't involved.
