As players adventure through Thedas in Dragon Age: Inquisition, they will come across various crafting materials to harvest or loot from enemies and chests. Some of the best quality items, like Royale Sea Silk and Dales Loden Wool, are not easy to find, and their location can't always be predicted. Other Tier 3 and 4 crafting materials, like Dragon Bone, Dragonling Scales, and Dragon Webbing, appear in finite quantities. Players can always purchase more from vendors, but this can get expensive. If they would rather not part with their Gold, players can use an exploit instead.

One of the best tips for Dragon Age: Inquisition is to use the "Sell and Buy Back" functions at almost any vendor; players can duplicate any stackable crafting materials. This also effectively creates a loop of infinite Gold. While Inquisition doesn't many of the cheats that its predecessors did, this exploit makes it easy to ensure the Inquisitor and their team have the best gear in Thedas and the best chances of survival against everything from demons and giants to high dragons.

How to Get Infinite Crafting Materials & Gold

Use The Vendor Exploit

To use this item duplication exploit, players should first find a vendor. The best options are any vendors at the Inquisition base in either Skyhold or Haven. This way, if anything goes wrong, the player can still buy back their most precious crafting materials without traveling far. As an additional safeguard, players should make sure to save the game just before trying this exploit in case they need to revert.

To use this exact glitch, players must uninstall any game patches they have, as they have been patched out. You can use it before installing any updates to get a lot of gold and then install the patches to ensure the game works as intended.

Players should navigate to their Inventory and choose the Crafting Materials category. They should select the Tier 3 and Tier 4 materials they want to duplicate and move them to the Valuables category.

Next, players should click on a vendor to open the Buy/Sell interface. They will need to toggle into the Sell screen and open the Valuables tab. Then, they will need to hover over the item to sell and press Sell and Sell All at the same time. To do this, press the X and the Triangle buttons at the same time as fast as possible. They should receive a hefty amount of Gold in return.

Then, navigate to the Buy Back screen. Here, the player should see the crafting material listed and that there is twice as much of it or more. They can repurchase it all for the Gold they just received. They can repeat this process as often as they want until they have all the necessary materials.

Players can use this item duplication exploit to earn money as well. They can duplicate lower-tier stackable crafting materials and sell the duplicates to earn more Gold so they can purchase unique gear and mounts. The exploit will only work on stackable crafting materials and not on herbs and plants. This exploit has been demonstrated to work on PlayStation and Xbox. It will also work on PC, but only if players use a controller.

How To Duplicate Weapons, Armor, Accessories & Upgrades

Use The Storage Chest Exploit

This exploit still appears to be working as of writing, allowing players to duplicate items such as weapons, armor, accessories, and upgrades. This can be seen in RenjiPlays' video, and the main idea is to use the Party Storage Chest in Undercroft, which is part of Skyhold. You can put the item you wish to duplicate inside this chest, enter the storage chest menu, and highlight the item.

Once highlighted, you can press the "Withdraw" and "Back" buttons as close to simultaneously as possible. If done correctly, you should now have that item in your Inventory and Storage Chest. That will give you two of them, and you can still sell the duplicates for as much gold as you want; it may just take a little longer than the first method. It also lets you get some of the best builds for your party faster.

You cannot have the "Examine" window open if you want this exploit to work. Sometimes, you may have to try again, as it does not always work. Sometimes, you can duplicate more than one rare and uncommon item at a time, letting you work faster, but unique items can only be done once. That way, you can still get a fair amount of gold using this duplication exploit in Dragon Age: Inquisition.
