Elden Ring Nightreign Dupe Glitch Eases Wealth Sharing

Elden Ring Nightreign features some incredible gear drops, but sharing these coveted items between players has always been challenging. That is, until this clever duplication glitch surfaced.

Double the Loot, Half the Problem

PC Gamer recently spotlighted this straightforward duplication method - when two players attempt to pick up the same weapon simultaneously, the game spawns duplicates for both. While philosophically unsettling (which version is the "original"?), practically it's brilliant.

The technique requires minimal coordination:

• Both players must initiate pickup at the exact same moment
• The action can be repeated indefinitely
• Mistakes simply mean another attempt

Strategic Timing Required

The only risk comes from executing this in dangerous territory. Nightreign seldom forgives stationary targets. Optimal windows include:

• The brief intermission between day cycles
• The sanctuary before facing the Nightlord
• Any secured safe zone

While PC Gamer brought recent attention to this exploit, the gaming community had already begun documenting it across forums and video platforms.

FromSoftware's response remains uncertain. The glitch operates in a gray area - potentially helpful yet easily ignored.

Practical Applications

The duplication shines for specific scenarios:

• Crafting dual-wield builds with unique weapons
• Equipping co-op partners with matching gear
• Preserving rare drops across playthroughs

While Nightreign's generous loot system reduces necessity, certain builds benefit tremendously - particularly those specializing in rare weapon types.
