The bad guys inThe Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomaren’t going to make the same mistakes that they did inBreath of the Wild. Firstly, the Master Sword was destroyed, leaving Link without his most powerful weapon, and then when the Upheaval occurred, most weapons in Hyrule were somehow damaged, forcing our hero tofuse random things together.It’s pretty rare that you come across a weapon that’s powerful as well as in good condition, so when you do, you have to take extra care of it and use it sparingly. However, among the many powers that Link has been bestowed with, is the power of duplication. Well, it’s not an actual power in the game, but it seems one player has figured out an exploit that duplicates weapons.RELATED:Recall Is Quietly Tears Of The Kingdom’s Most Revolutionary AbilityAs spotted byKotaku, Twitter userModoki_returnsshowcased how you can trigger the duplication exploit and get yourself two strong weapons for the price of one. Like many such glitches, the technique relies on messing with the in-game menu. One important thing to keep in mind is thatthe weapon has to be the strongest one in your inventory for this method to work.
Here’s how you may duplicate weapons in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom:
Yes, these steps are a bit cumbersome, but it’ll be worth it when your most powerful weapon deteriorates and you can just whip out another one. You should get to this as soon as possible, as once Nintendo gets wind of this, the exploit will likely be patched out in an update. This exploit will be pretty helpful in the early game, where base weapons aren’t that powerful.
While Nintendo has given players the ability to create anything they can imagine, it probably doesn’t want you to use exploits. For instance, Tears of the Kingdom hasremoved the whistle sprint speedrunning trickthat was widely used in Breath of the Wild. This trick allowed Link to sprint indefinitely, without using any stamina.
It involved constantly tapping the whistle button while sprinting, which resulted in the stamina meter not getting depleted. This was an essential tool to speedrunners, which won’t be available in Tears of the Kingdom.
