Talk:Deepening

I've heard so many different people say different things about deepening and whether you deepen first or lighten first for the best overall effect. Can anyone shed light on this for us here? Thanks -Soliere FIRENSIA (talk) 18:28, 19 April 2020 (CDT)

I performed testing on this for my own purposes using two identical knapsacks with a capacity of 110lbs and a weight of 8lbs. The first I deepened first, using pink and blue notes until it reached the maximum of 200 lbs. Then I used yellow notes to lighten, and it accepted two yellow notes, taking the weight down to 6lbs. The second knapsack I lightened first, and it accepted three yellow notes taking it to 5lbs. I then deepened it using the same combination of blue and pink notes to reach 200lbs. The end result was knapsack #1 turned out 200lb capacity at 6 weight. Knapsack #2 turned out 200lb capacity at 5 weight. Lighten first!GSROGUE (talk) 18:42, 19 April 2020 (CDT)

Agreed. Lighten first. WINTERDAWN (talk) 14:43, 20 April 2020 (CDT)
