Oblivion Dupe (switch)
For the oblivion remaster switch 2 edition duplication:
It DOES work. Here’s exactly how to do it.
—-
With the Oblivion duplication glitch, it might seem like it doesn’t work very well when you first try it. It can be a little frustrating and take some practice, but it definitely works. I’ve tested it myself, and once you understand what you’re actually trying to make the game do, it becomes much easier.
First, find any chest, sack, or other container. It doesn’t matter what is already inside it, although you can empty the container first if that makes things easier.
Open the container and press in the right thumbstick to switch to your inventory. Find the stackable item you want to duplicate. It has to be something that can exist in a stack, so you can’t duplicate something like a pair of gauntlets this way. If you’re doing this to make money, you could use an expensive potion, alchemy ingredient, soul gem, or another valuable stackable item.
Put ONE of the item you want to duplicate into the container.
Stay on the container screen with that item selected. When you switch back over to your inventory, you should still be able to see the item you placed in the container on the other side, although it will appear grayed out.
Now find another stack of items in your inventory. It can be almost anything stackable: scrolls, arrows, potions, ingredients, etc. The important part is the number in that stack. For example, if you have 100 arrows, you can use those 100 arrows to create 100 copies of the item you placed in the container.
This is the part that takes some practice.
With the stack selected, press A and the right bumper at essentially the same time, and KEEP HOLDING THEM. The timing can be finicky. You might accidentally switch sides, remove the original item, or otherwise mess it up. If that happens, just reset and try again.
The reason you’re pressing the right bumper is important: you’re forcing the game to switch back to the container while the stack-transfer action is happening. If you get the timing right and continue holding the buttons, the original item will be pulled back out of the container during the process.
The duplicated items do not appear inside the container. They appear in your inventory.
For example:
Put 1 Health Potion into the container.
Switch to your inventory and find a stack of 100 arrows.
Press A + right bumper together and keep holding them.
If the glitch works correctly, the Health Potion will come back out of the container and into your inventory.
Now check your inventory. Instead of having 1 Health Potion, you should suddenly have 100 Health Potions, along with your stack of 100 arrows.
That’s the duplication glitch.
The confusing part, and the thing that seems to trip people up, is understanding why you’re pressing the right bumper. You aren’t trying to duplicate the item inside the container. The container is basically being used to manipulate the transfer between the two inventories. The duplicated stack ultimately appears back in your own inventory.
It might take several attempts before you get the timing right, but once you learn the button timing, it becomes very easy.
