The '''backpack''' is a [[Item#Powerups|powerup]] that doubles the [[player]]'s [[ammo]]-carrying capacity; after picking up a backpack, the player is able to carry up to 400 [[Clip|bullets]], 100 [[shotgun shells]], 100 [[rocket]]s, and 600 [[Energy cell (Doom)|energy cell units]] at once. When picked up, the backpack also gives the equivalent of the small ammo item for each type of ammunition: 10 bullets, 4 shotgun shells, a rocket, and 20 energy cell units (doubled on the "I'm Too Young To Die" and "Nightmare!" [[Skill level#Doom and Doom II skill levels|skill levels]]). | The '''backpack''' is a [[Item#Powerups|powerup]] that doubles the [[player]]'s [[ammo]]-carrying capacity; after picking up a backpack, the player is able to carry up to 400 [[Clip|bullets]], 100 [[shotgun shells]], 100 [[rocket]]s, and 600 [[Energy cell (Doom)|energy cell units]] at once.
