Summary
- Duplicating glitches enhances gameplay by saving time and avoiding frustration.
- Investments in repair hammers keeps gear in good condition and levels up skills.
- Duplicating items like ingredients, soul gems, and scrolls offer numerous benefits in Oblivion Remastered.
Players love finding and using exploits in video games. The original Oblivion had its fair share of exploits, and Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered is no different. One such exploit is the duplication glitch.
Some players may say this ruins the experience, and can break how the game is meant to feel. However, players can use this glitch to greatly enhance their experience. This can be seen as the same as how some mobile game players make microtransactions to speed things up, or enhance existing elements.
7 Arrows
Saves Time Looking Around the Battlefield After Fights
- No longer need to hunt down missed shots.
Players that use bows, even 
Bound Bows will know the joyous feeling of finding a new kind of arrow. However, when getting a new kind of arrow, they tend to come in a small amount. This means players are likely to run out mid-fight and need to swap over to their previous arrow type.
Duplicating arrows means they can instantly start using their new arrows, and not worry about searching all over the ground for any missed shots. When players only have a single digit number of a new arrow, it's never a nice feeling to see that number down by 2.
6 Repair Hammers
Keep Gear in Good Condition at All Times
- No more fighting in broken gear in the middle of a dungeon.
Repair Hammers are used to repair both weapons and pieces of gear once their durability hits zero. This will be the number located in the heart column. Once this value hits zero, the weapon or piece of gear will become broken with a symbol to signify this.
How To Get Akaviri Sunderblade In Oblivion Remastered
The Akaviri Sunderblade is one of the most powerful weapons in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, and here's how to get it early on.
The effectiveness of the Repair Hammer is based on the armorer skill, meaning players with a low amount of points in this skill will need to use more of these hammers. Duplicating this item means players can keep repairing their gear to raise this skill and level up faster from the extra points.
5 Ingredients
No Need to Worry about Using Something One Might Need Later
- Explore Alchemy without limited ingrediants.
Hoarding is a common thing that many players do in RPGs. Wanting to keep an item that is in limited quantity helps one feel safe in the event they find themselves needing it to complete a quest or progress in some way.
Duplicating ingredients means players can freely explore the Alchemy skill and its mechanics to their fullest — and never worry about regretting their actions. There are plenty of items players will find a very small number of, and using the duplication glitch on them can give players peace of mind.
4 Soul Gems
Capture the Souls of Fallen Foes to Power Magical Weapons
- Never let ones magic weapons turn mundane on them.
Players will find blue stones called Soul Gems, and they will come in varying degrees of potency. These gems can be charged with the souls of slain enemies, and then used to pass that charge along to players' magical weapons.
This makes them similar in use to repair hammers. Duplicating a large stack of Soul Gems means players can go wild with their magic weapons and then recharge them at will, no matter how far down in a dungeon they’ve gone. Another great fact is that they are pretty light.
Players can carry a lot of these valuable gems and then sell them in batches to a merchant with a high amount of gold. This will let them quickly buy anything that catches their eyes without needing to duplicate valuable heavy items.
3 Potions/Poisons
Instant Buffs and Debuffs at Will
- Having a potion/poison ready means an instant advantage.
There are plenty of hazards that will come up in Oblivion Remastered. Players may be delving deep into a dungeon, and then they suddenly catch a disease from a rat that drops their carrying capacity. Players then find themselves overencumbered. While a magic user can just cast Cure Diseases, warriors and thieves are left high and dry.
How To Get & Use Welkynd Stones In Oblivion Remastered
Discover the best locations to farm Welkynd Stones and how to use them in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered.
This is where potions come in to save the day. Players can keep a healthy supply of all the cure-alls and pick-me-ups they need stored away and then restock their inventory when they use up one of them. This will save them gold by buying more and/or save them time making it themselves. While poisons can put foes at a disadvantage before fights even begin.
2 Lockpicks
Never be Locked Out of Any Room or Chest Ever Again
- Players don't have to come back later when their last pick snaps.
Lockpicks will let players break into anything with a tumbler minigame attached to it. However, players that are still a Novice when it comes to the skill will see tumblers always dropping on them. By duplicating this item into the thousands, they can spam the auto-unlock button to jimmy open everything that stands in their way while getting easy xp from the skill leveling up.
The best part is that this item has a weight of 0. Players can also sell these picks whenever they see something they want in a merchant's inventory. There is no downside to holding a massive haul of them at any given time.
1 Scrolls
Become an Unstoppable Force in Oblivion Remastered
- All the powers of a mage without needing to be one.
Scrolls are the single greatest item to duplicate in Oblivion Remastered. They are lightweight, so having a high carrying capacity means players can carry a massive arsenal from every school of magic. Players can then duplicate these at any crate or barrel while exploring dungeons to never run out. They can also sell them for massive amounts of gold in little time.
Scrolls do not use Magicka or need the players to invest any time in the magical skill they are associated with. This lets any warrior or thief cheat their way to doing everything an archmage can do.
Players may still need an altar or potion now and again, as they may never come across a scroll that does what they need.
