Arcane Spell Failure and Encumbrance

[IronWolf]

Does encumbrance factor into arcane spell failure? So if a wizard is wearing just robes and is carrying a heavy load is there an arcane spell failure chance?

Carrying Capacity wrote:

Encumbrance Effects. A medium or heavy load counts as medium or heavy armor for the purpose of abilities or skills that are restricted by armor. Carrying a light load does not encumber a character.

That could be read to indicate that it does. But what ASF chance would use for a medium encumbered character? a heavy encumbered character?

Or is that not rules as intended?

There is no ASF for being encumbered.
