Basically what the title says. Do they just rng any random material? Or is it by lvl? And is there a list some where to all the loot they can drop?

    Heavy sack = 10 pounds of *** in a 5 pound bag.

    I don't think that's possible. I believe if its a rare item like a kuta the max is 5?

    I have also been blessed with the 5 Kuta bag. Yes it is RNG, but when it hits, it hits nicely!

    It's random and the material you get is based on the tier of your crafting level. So if you get 10 wood it's be the tier of your Woodworking level, i.e 10/10 = ruby ash. Or you get 5 flowers or 5 enchanting mats or 10 provisioning mats. Sucks when you get 5 Ta. And they're affected by the CP bonus (can't remember the name off the top of my head) so sometimes I get 5 Ta and 5 Jejota. Double whammy.

    I thought the double yield was only for nodes not sacks?

    Yes because the others are a product of refinement.

    In 4 man dungeons everyone can interact with the Heavy Sack. in the over world (unlike crates, barrels, backpacks, dressers etc which are instanced for each player) they are first come first serve. You probably knew that though.

    I have found 5 Kutas in a sack in vICP, never 10 though I suppose its possible with the perk.

    Heavy sack contents are doubled in Cyrodiil.

    They have set spawn locations, and looting at one location will trigger a fairly fast respawn at another, random location within the same map.
    Heavy crates are only in Coldharbour.

    Unaffected by CP passives.
    Crafting material can be randomly either character level or crafting level based.

    Normal yield:
    10x gear crafting mat
    5x rune, in sets of 2 or 3.
    4x alchemy mat

    Edit; Plus:
    10x Provisioning mat
    5x furnishing ingredient

    They are sacks...They are heavy...They have stuff in them...At least until a Khajit walks by, then they're just sacks, that aren't as heavy anymore.

    Awesome ! Clear and comprehensive list.
    I'd add that Craglorn heavy sacks have a (small) chance at dropping Nirncrux.

    It's 100% RNG. It will be a certain multiple of a mat.

    I remember when I used to get excited for 5x Kuta sacks (back when the market was healthy and one Kuta would sell for 5-6k). With Kuta worth just 2k on the open market now, that excitement is gone.

    Had five, and once got five and five rekuta (is that what they're called? Purps?) with the double CP perk I assume. So I guess 10 is possible!

    Good for you OP!!! Most of the time, I'd rather come across a heavy sack than a chest. Even when they are full of nothing but Ta.

    No, they just sit around until someone empties them.

    The same as light sacks, you just need more support.
