Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom players have discovered multiple glitches to duplicate items.
One involves fusing an item using the bow, while another allows players to duplicate weapons and shields. Both involve exiting and entering the pause menu at high speed.
Both methods potentially allow for infinite copies of certain items, whether you're seeking powerful ammo and weapons, or want to sell items for extra Rupees.

Another method has been shared by YouTuber PhillyBeatzU. This similarly involves the unpause and pause trick, but players need to save and reload the game between equipping and dropping
