With everyone replacing their bulky bags with the Spatial Fanny Pack, movement became easy even when they were carrying a lot of items. In fact, they didn't need to leave Aster as a baggage carrier anymore since everyone could share the burden and carry a part of the items they brought.
Of course, the lighter ones were assigned to the agile cats, Kali and Tina, since they need movement speed over anything else. The next one was Cassy, who got a bit heavier than the others but was still manageable.
Then, the ones with the heaviest baggage were Aster and Liz. Aster, since he was rendered a middle-range fighter for now, and Liz, as she didn't need too much movement anyway as a tank.
Their formation was Liz at the front, Aster in the middle, and Cassy at the back. Then, Kali scouted ahead, with Tina positioned between Kali and Liz, acting as an intermediary. Of course, as usual, they ignored loot that was hard to collect, like a slime's core or fluids.
