Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Update Now Live (Version 1.1.2), Here Are The Full Patch Notes

Dupe Glitch Patched, Update at your own peril.

@Rika_Yoshitake Ah, it was a matter of time before they would.

Just in time for my copy of the game, which will be arriving tomorrow.

I never even tried the duplication glitch. It being fixed is only a good thing long-term.
People will hack the game for infinite items anyway, better to not be tempted imo.

I’ll be updating my game since I haven’t done the duplication glitch, nor do I plan to. I’d rather just play the way it’s intended to, and not massively disrupt the balance of the game. I’ve been having a blast progressing at a somewhat slower pace.

I’m normally not one to exploit a glitch, but I really didn’t want to farm Zonaite and having a big battery’s a nifty, inconsequential bonus.

I also duplicated diamonds, because having infinite rupees is amazing… and dragon parts because I don’t like chasing dragons… ok. I’ve actually enjoyed the glitch quite a bit 😏

1.1.1, you ain’t leaving me any time soon!

If anything the duplication glitches balance the game out.

I've used the duplication glitch for diamonds and zonaite but that's it.

I'll duplicate a lot more then update, it's been a handy little glitch I gotta admit.

Nope, I'm keeping my dupe glitch. Haven't abused it yet, but i have some extra diamonds for when I'm too lazy to farm rupees.

Nah wont use the dupe glitches anyway.

Duplication is awesome. Between that and Amiibos I always have basic needs met and can spend my time using the shops, staying at the inns, and still getting armor. Oh yeah and doing all the other game things. BotW and TotK make you poor all the time (Totk does better but still never enough rupees)

Auto-updates off

Interesting, I might try item duplication glitch & infinite fly glitch now before I update but I'm also doing a run without looking up anything on the internet/no map as part of a self-challenge so I might have to hold back. There will be duplication glitches found later too it just feels like this game will have a lot of exploits about it

Era of the Dupers vs. Non Dupers

I’ve noticed some performance hiccups as a result of this new patch. I hope they fix it soon.

I normally don’t go for these types of glitches, but I don’t mind in this case since in 30-35 hours of gameplay so far, I’ve probably legitimately earned less than 400 rupees. When a set of essential gear goes for 2000+, yeah, I don’t mind using the trick.

Turned auto updates off.

I hope they fix the glitch where I'm rubbish at rotating objects and attach them at bad angles.

Nope. I haven't finished abusing the lovely, lovely glitches yet.

It's be great if they fixed the in game camera. The pictures you take are blurry and grainy af. It's nice we can make them full-screen to take a screenshot of them but they look absolutely terrible. My Sidon photoshoot turned out abysmal

They fixed all the dupe methods? Or just the bow one?

@BeefSanta All the ones that blew up via social media

Why would anyone want to ruin their game and use duplication glitch? One of the fun aspects of the game is manage your inventory and items or figure out ways to gain rupee

@Jamies I’m with you! I’d much rather play the game as intended.

Glad I stop updates......

I will hold my hands up and admit to using it to gain max rupees, I feel like rupee farming is not easy in this game unless you go out of your way to do it, and even then it's not fast. It didn't affect my enjoyment of the game, so sue me xD

I love having the dupe option there if needed. I love TOTK and use it when there is a need for major farming (e.g some quests, costs of gear, etc).

These updates are not essential so not gonna use them.

@Rika_Yoshitake

which one?
the paraglider dupe
or the bow dupe

hopefully not both

@StarPoint the economy in this game is INSANE! I've been playing for like 20 to 30 hours and got like 500/700 rupees. I NEED the quil set or like a thousand peppers to complete the first dungeon, then I need to be fire proof or heat proof for the next 2!

Ik not using the glitch, but I definitely should because it's messing with my enjoyment at this point!

@FLockwood both!

@Jamies While I personally agree, it is apparently not a fun aspect of the game for everyone. To each his own I guess. If duplicating makes their game more enjoyable, more power to them =)

@garfreek Are you hoarding all the stuff that you find? I think the baseline TotK economy expects you to sell off items to make money.

@Jamies Some people like to play with cheats, this is no different.

In most Zelda games before BotW you used to have so many rupees they became pointless. I personally like that you now have a harder time and you need to choose between selling stuff or using them for making stronger weapons. Rupees finally matter but some people don't like it.

@Jamies I’m with you. On a second playthrough I would do whatever though much like using cheats after beating an old school game but not for my first time through. I have the same feelings on people time-travelling in Animal Crossing, just feels like breaking an experience that offers rewards through patience.

In the end I’m not bothered though, if people want to play using glitches or exploits and they have a better time with the game as a result then more power to them, it doesn’t affect my enjoyment of the game!

The only bug I personally encountered was during a quest "Legend of the Great Sky Island" where you have to play a game of lighting three bonfires without touching the ground. I lit all three fires, yet somehow the game considered there to be "one more to go", so I had to do it all over again. It was relatively minor, since it didn't impede progress, but definitely a bug.

...regarding duplication being patched.... you know, I'm okay with it. If it was some kind of insane memory corruption glitch like in Breath of the Wild and Ocarina of Time, then that'd be one thing, but in Tears of the Kingdom it was so easy to do. Too easy.

@slceel
this game actively fights against you selling everything you pick up with its insane text wall. hey my name is blah blah have you heard about my life story? let me tell you about how much i like bugs every single time you talk to me and god forbid you have a rare bug you dont want to sell
oh you want to sell this? how many? are you sure?

especially cooked meals which were a huge money maker in botw since you can only sell them one at a time

@garfreek I needed around 400 rupees and maybe 15-20 peppers for the first dungeon, it wasn’t so bad 🙂

Good. Keep the updates coming with bug fixes and patching out non intended exploits. Hopefully they announce a season pass too like what BoTW got.

@Rika_Yoshitake yup, my wife accidentally updated this morning and dupe glitch gone. I now know never to update it again 🤣

And im assuming theres no way to revert back to 1.1.1?

That's fine. I duped up to 200 000 rupees so I'm all set.

Glad this has been updated. Honestly don't understand the point of duplicating items, you're just cheating yourself.
I'm about 15 hours in and have about 5,000 rupees and have spend about the same. Don't really see the issue.

I have to stop reading news in the morning. I can't help but imagine Nintendo trying to convince people to update with a "Dupes are for dopes" 90's era drug PSA.

@SilverShamrock
Ok, I'm having a very hard time believing this.
30-35 hours means, unless you have actively avoided every single cave, you've saved up at least a few good ores.
A single batch of 5 or 6 of anything above Amber-grade will easily net you 400R when sold to Beedle.
Heck, selling off a stack of 20 Bokoblin guts, which individually sell for 20R each, which is easy as blowing your nose to acquire, will net you 400R in a snap.
I think you're either faffing around on the tutorial island still [for whatever reason], or you've never even tried selling anything to Beedle.🤣

@garfreek
#1 Visit more caves. Ores are your quickest source of high-value low-effort cash, & just 1 round of 3 or 4 caves can easily net you enough to afford 1 or 2 pieces of the Rito or Goron sets.
#2 Sell your monster parts.
Bokoblin guts, especially, sell for 20R a pop and are not at all difficult to obtain, but all of the Boko mats under black & silver rank will pile up into small mountains in short order, which will net you a tidier sum than you'd think they would.

Seriously, Rupees are not hard to get in this game.
Not dying in pursuit of the stuff that you can sell for them? Maybe a bit harder, but not by much.

I don't get how people are low on rupees? Just smash rocks!

@chardir Exactly!
I easily acquired several armor sets within the first 10 or so hours just by selling off monster mats & completely clearing out every cave I came across of its ore deposits. [Minus the Depths as a whole, obviously.]
I've got more flint than I know what to do with, so I always sell that off fast for small fistfulls of cash.
Mats from black & below-grade monsters pile up fast for me, though, so I sell off horns from Bokos & Moblins for easy money.

@Dev9417 It's really not needed.
Here's the secret; sell off every monster part below black tier [with a few exceptions for arrow fusing] & visit every cave you come across.
Once silver enemies start spawning, switch to selling half the black tier stuff you get on top of that & save only the silver grade.
You'll easily be able to afford every purchaseable outfit without needing to grind, just by occasionally selling off the mats you earn while casually going about your business, let alone the ores.
Duping is far from necessary.

The dupe glitch was nice to avoid the grind for rupees mostly. I've already spent two weeks playing the game and I'm still not even finished, I didn't mind using it to stockpile some materials for later.

I mean, have you SEEN how much it costs to fully upgrade gear in this game? Makes paying 10K to unlock the final Great Fairy in BotW feel like a steal.

Settings - System - Auto Update Software - Off

I'm surprised that Nintendo's being more strict about patching glitches than they were with Breath of the Wild. You can still get max stamina and hearts and cheese the Trial of the Sword, so I assumed they might leave some glitches alone with this one, but that doesn't seem to be the case this time around. To be fair, the duplication glitch is so busted, and worse still, it's ridiculously easy to do, so I kind of figured they would release a patch for that one in a timely manner, and here we are. So long as I can still beat the game on 1.1.0, I don't see any reason to update.

@smashbrolink What’s a “mats”? The first time you wrote it I thought it was a typo for meats but now I’m thinking you wrote it twice so no.🤷🏻‍♂️

I have about 900 rupees w/o selling anything just from picking up rocks and helping the Hudson sign guy, put up 5 or 6 of those in my 20 hours or so. I haven’t gone underground yet - minus the wells for that woman - b/c I haven’t done the camera quest w/ Robbie yet. I’m playing the game the way I played BotW, going around the map to light up all the towers and fill it in. Though I wasted an entire day trying to do Lurelin fishing village, finally gave up and went back to the oldest auto save I had.😝

Not a glitch guy so this doesn’t affect me.

The patch does nothing to help with gameplay. It's not like it's a FortNite where everyone is playing together to patch that stops cheating. TOTK whom are you cheating or stopping from the game?? No one but yourself. People needs to stop chiming their "Ethical" woes as if you look at yourself - you basically have no ethical woes to talk about here.

@rjejr "Mats" is short for "materials", so in this case, "monster materials" like Bokoblin horns, guts, etc.
It's pretty universal game jargon, so keep it in mind.
I'd highly recommend getting the camera quest & 1 of the 4 major dungeons done before going all-in on exploring & filling in the map, because you'll then be able to use the camera & compendium to track down anything you've gotten a pic of in the compendium.
It'll be a huge help for finding treasure chests & rare ore deposits, if nothing else.

@Jamies Well some of us enjoy different things. I enjoy the exploration and puzzle solving, hate inventory management. This took care of that part for me.

@SilverShamrock That's pretty impressive. Even by casually playing the game for 30 hours I've already earned over 7k in rupees by just selling gems and doing quests. Do you just run around and gawk at the world?

I've used the dupe glitch with the Paraglider to get more diamonds so I can sell them for Rupees, but that's really about it. I tried using it for Sunset Fireflies, but then they started flying away before I could even execute the glitch.

what about the master sword glitch?

I have duplicate dimonds and that big old mushrooms that by cocking it with same shrooms, gives you all hearts plus 12, it was fun while it lasted

@smashbrolink Thanks. Probably would have figured that out eventually.😂 Maybe I’ll go do the camera quest next, not planning on doing any dungeons for awhile I hate those, I’m just a fellow traveler. 😁

Ugh. I accidently installed the update. It downloaded while I was in the game on a different user, and when I switched back to my main it forced me to install the update. Bye bye item duplication. They could have waited to make a patch for it until I was done with the game.

@smashbrolink yeah, I have an absolute tonne of items in my inventory that I will probably never even use, so I can just sell all of that if I do need anything. Fight everything is the quickest way to hoard stuff, and it's enjoyable too. Especially in the depths where you fight enemies who drop an actually usable resource in zonanite, who are conveniently stood next to big piles of... more zonanite 😁

@Jamies someone ran the numbers and you'd have to spend almost 8 hours doing nothing but riding and farming dragons to get enough parts to upgrade everything. Now, I'm not going nearly that far, but as a nearly forty year-old, I have better things to do than mindlessly ride dragons for a few hours to upgrade the specific things I do want to upgrade.

As much as I am loving the game, it could be a little less disrespectful of the player's time. The only things I have duped are the dragon parts and I don't think there should be any shame in that.

Cook food and sell it, sell parts you don’t need. Feed dondons. Go mining. Hunt blupees. Hunt the yiga. Dragon ride. There are tons of ways to make rupees in game.

@smashbrolink I guess we’re just playing differently.

@HorridCrow To an extent, I suppose I am. I’m not in a particular rush to rip through the game, so before using the exploit, I was doing a lot of shrines and doing personal tasks like trying to build up my stock of arrows, not looking stuff up or watching any videos at all. My wife showed me the glitch on her file and I decided to join in on the fun lol.

Unless Nintendo somehow forces updates with TOTK despite me having auto-updates turned off, I'm taking advantage of the dupe glitch for as long as I can. It's not ruining the game at all. In fact, when grinding and farming are part of the game's mechanics, it ruins the gameplay for me; it actually makes me want to finish the game faster and be done with it.

With this, it actually has me taking my time and playing MORE.

I don't know how people are struggling to make money in this game after playing for two weeks. If you've just started then it makes sense. But I'd have about 50,000 rupees by now if I wasn't hoarding my gems just in case I need them for something later.
And I don't even visit the same cave twice just to mine.

Eh, I can see why everyone wants to keep it but risking everything to get a few gems, zonaite, and stronger weapons is part of what makes the game fun, it's why I liked subnautica.

@garfreek The best way I have found to get rupees is to go hunting for raw meat and raw chicken, then cook them up into meat skewers and sell them. The Ruto mountain area is a good area to do this, once you have some warm clothing. Until then, I recommend forest areas where you can find deer and boars.

It is a little time consuming, but you can also pickup mushrooms and apples while you are doing this.

This is a game, no fun for you!

ive used dupe glitch only on rare ingredients and food etc stamina mushroom m.m.

Apparently there are two types of people in the world ... those that use duplication glitches, and those that don't.

This was bound to be patched since everybody was shouting from the rooftops about it.

I never had an issue making money in this game. Pretty easy to farm ores and such.

@Pikman just beat it (And every second was absolutely amazing! ) I had more than enough protection after buying the
Headpiece and finding the trousers in the starting area!

(especially when a forged the ruby onto a shield! )

@slceel yhea, hoarding like crazy to upgrade my clothing later on. But I'm gonna sell some stones and meat skewers, worked in breath of the wild!

I beat three of the temples before I used the dupe glitch to make 30 diamonds.

Bought the firecracker armour and beat the fire temple. Bought my dream house and didn't know where to put anything.

Felt guilty after reading a comment somewhere that said duping diamonds breaks the balance of the game.

Deleted my save data and started again.

Then something funny happened. The Switch told me there was an error with my cloud data, so I downloaded the backup and overwrote my new save data and...

...my old save file was restored!

Clearly a sign from Hylia.

I'm glad I never used the dupe glitch - I just thought it would ultimately diminished my longterm enjoyment of the game. Why work hard to set aside money for expanding my house slowly, over time, when I could just dupe a bunch of diamonds and build everything in a single go? As such, I haven't been hurt by this patch, though I give my condolences to those who have been haha

@smashbrolink 3) shoot birds, deer, and wolves with arrows and cook the meats into kabobs, which can sell anywhere from 75 to 200 rupees. Aside from selling off gems, I've probably made the bulk of my money just from cooking. Heck, even just throwing 5 apples into the pot to make a simmering fruit dish can sell for like close to 40 rupees - I don't have the game on atm or I'd check, but either way, it's pretty easy and profitable no matter how you slice it (apple cooking pun intended)!

I’m no expert player, but I cooked like 5 dishes to give me like 10 minutes each, and made my way through entire wind temple and boss, died 1 time but didn’t need fancy armor amd I’ve still only 5 hearts. I do r need to cheat, I have plenty of everything I need just from exploring the world.
That being said, I’d rather Nintendo just give us good old cheat codes, things like infinite arrows, or rupees. It’s a singpke player game and how is it harming anyone. My kids take me game, use all my arrows. It be nice if I could just punch in a code and let them play with cheats on

Now I just need to decide what to do with the extra time I have earned from typing 'mats' instead of 'materials'.

@Uncle_Franklin Farm diamonds

@CorvoRevo im blind on one side of my eye and death-mute too and really slow on my reflexes then im a idiot when im glitch some ngredients and food etc stamina mushroom m.m. ???

you can only cheat yourself not others cause is a singel player game and its just a game not life CorvoRevo

i wish i could remember what i said that was removed for "trolling" and flaming/arguing, but i cant 😥

apologies if anyone has felt trolled or inflamed by my words ✌️
