Help with money : IV

I need help to save up money so I can pimp out the castle, mage tower, and the evil lair you get with expansion packs. Is there a glitch or trick for getting a lot of money quickly?

Open the console by pressing the tilde key (looks like this ~)

type "player.additem f 100000" hit return

Close the console by hitting the tilde key again

I'm on Xbox sadly

I thought that might be the case. The easiest and quickest way to make money on the Xbox is to get the highest quality mortar and pestle you can find (the quality of the mortar and pestal affects potion value, the other apprati have no effect on value, so you don't need to worry about those). Go to each inn in the Imperial City and buy all the food. Make restore fatigue potions by the bushel. Sell them to the woman in the Mystic Emporium (the one that comes with the Frostcrag expansion), since she will give you a really good deal on potions. Once you have cleared out all the inns in the Imperial City, travel to another City and do the same, then come back to the Imperial City and the vendors will have restocked their food supplies and you can do the whole thing again. You can make bushels of money pretty quick this way.

Other alternatives are the arena, fighting bandits and taking their armor to sell (provided you are high enough level for them to start spawning glass armor), etc. But Alchemy is probably the easiest and quickest.

I used the duplication glitch back on the Ps3 to get into RP faster, going to copy and paste from the wiki :smile:

Spoiler

Acquire two or more copies of the same scroll. The number of identical scrolls that you have will determine the number of duplicate items you can create.
-Open your inventory.
-Highlight the stack of scrolls and select them once.
-Highlight (but do not equip) an item (either single or a stack) that you wish to duplicate, and drop it.
-Close your inventory and on the floor will be multiple copies of the item that you dropped.
Acquiring a large number of identical scrolls can be difficult. However, as long as you can find two identical scrolls to start with, you can initially use the exploit to repeatedly duplicate scrolls. Once you have a large number of duplicated scrolls, you can then start duplicating other items. When the duped scrolls are on the ground, pick up one scroll and repeat the process.

This is useful for duping arrows as you will need a large number of scrolls to dupe arrows. When duping arrows, it may be helpful to drop all the arrows that you want to be duped except for one. This may seem counter-intuitive but they will build up faster that way.(Example: With 33 scrolls and three arrows duped you will get 11 arrows on the ground, because 33/3=11. But with one arrow duped you will get 33, because 33/1=33.) Just like you did with the scroll duping process describe above, pick up one arrow and repeat.

Duplication of stacks of items works best if the number of scrolls is an exact multiple of the number of to-be-duplicated items in your stack. So 33 scrolls can be used to duplicate 11 rings (creating 3 "items" on the ground, each containing a stack of 11 rings). 1000 scrolls can also be used to duplicate 100 potions (creating 10 "items" on the ground, each with 100 potions). Using stacks can be much more effective when duplicating large numbers of items, in particular because it reduces the number of individual items on the ground, preventing game lag problems.
Nirnroot, stolen items, quest items, and items repaired or damaged at all will not duplicate.

Dupe things and then sell them for quick gold.
