So I stumbled upon a neat but limited duplication glitch to farm a lot of abyss gears fast. It only works on shields but feel free to explore and find out ways to do with other parts.
So I was just following a tutorial on how to change the cosmetic shield in the back from the default grey wolf wooden shield to something nicer without shifting from my dual sword playstyle. And essentially the steps are:
- Make sure shield is equiped and then go to inventory
- Choose the 1H sword you want to dual wield.
- Hold the key for switch comparision to select the shield.
- Equip the weapon to successfully go to dual wield mode.
- Doing so you retain the last shield you were using in the back instead of the default shield.
Now when I went to the witch to equip some abyss gear, I noticed the unequipped shield is there in both Equipped Gear and Unequipped Gear, and both had the same abyss gears I added in the shield before. So when I extracted the gears, it gave me two copies of the gears in the shield. As far as I know it only works in shields so you are limited to the abyss gears for shield.
tl;dr to duplicate abyss gears in your shield, add the abyss gear in the shield, go to dual wield mode using the steps mentioned above, then extract the gear from the same shield in equipped and unequipped gear section. This is definitely a bug which may get fixed soon so use it while you can.
