This duplication glitch is a bit more involved than the previous one thatTears of the Kingdomplayers may be used to, but it’s still pretty easy to do once you get the hang of things. All you need is a food item, a bow, and a handful of items that you want to duplicate. Here’show to duplicate any item in version 1.4.1 ofTears of the KingdomonNintendo Switch and Switch 2.
How to Do the Tears of the Kingdom Duplication Glitch (1.4.1)
This duplication glitch requires a bow, a single food item, and at least four copies of the item you want to duplicate. To prepare for this glitch, find a food material like an apple and ensure you only have one of it in your inventory. If you have too many, either eat or drop the rest. Then, sort your inventory by type. This glitch only works if the targeted item is below the food item in your inventory, and sorting by type puts ingredients at the top of the list.
The first step of theTears of the Kingdomdupe glitch is toequip a bowand then fuse the desired duplication item to it. Once the item is fused to your bow, pause the game and eat the single food item you prepared. Then, remove your bow and unpause the game.
verify you’re using a food item from the materials page of your inventory, not a fully cooked dish.
Next, perform a shield surf and pause the game while you’re still in the air. If everything is working correctly, you’ll see that the food item you ate has been replaced by the item you’re trying to duplicate. Hold that item and then scroll down in your inventory to find the original stack of items you wanted to duplicate. Hold four items from that stack so you have a full stack of five items in your hands. Don’t unpause the game just yet, though.
To finish things off, open the map while the items are in your hands. From the map screen, unpause the game. Link should drop all five of the items on the floor. Collect all of them and check your inventory. If you did everything correctly, you should have five additional copies of your targeted item. You can repeat this duplication glitch as often as you like, but remember that you need at least four of the item you want to duplicate in order for the exploit to work. You may have tofarm rare materials and other itemsbefore you can start duplicating them.
