What was the latest dupe?
I think it happened around Jan, but Im not sure.
And also can someone tell me how it was done?
Not the steps but what or who was used and stuff.
Thanks

Sorc would use telekinesis on an item to make it jump of the ground. While sorc was doing this other char tried to pick it up and it ended up stuck in the inventory from where you could sell it multiple times to npc and buying them back.

You could sell them with packets but there was also D2HackIt! modules made so it would be faster.

Btw, did they patch it so that telekinesis doesn't affect on items anymore or they don't just jump of the ground?

The tk doesn't affect items anymore neither do they jump, afaik the "tk-bug" appeared if an item was picked up just when it was about to flip into the air.

The bug iteself is really old, I heard of it during 1.09. Therefor Im pretty sure that this has been a private method for a really long time, untill it was made public and patched.

if someone has a full inventory and clicks an item and it jumps...could that be used to the same extent?

It doesn't work. Wonder if there is any other ways to get item bugged and stuck in your inventory...

Im pretty sure that there are ... I tested most 1.09 modules that did this (gamedrop, bugswap) but they all seemed patched

I'm going to try few things and old modules to see if some of them work in any way. I got two extra keys today when one of my friends stopped playing and the other one I took from store when I opened the case.

How does an item actually become bugged? What makes an item bugged? Gimmie some other answers than you can sell it repeatidly. How does that actually work? What makes the server not remove the item from your character after it is sold?

[Ghist]

I'll let someone else to answer that.

Starfish, I got the item stuck in my inventory about a week after the ladder started, it was when I was muling with friend.

I didn't knew anything about duping then because the last time I played Diablo in B.net was when LoD wasn't even out yet and I was legit. I could have duped then but I thought it was useless since the item always disappeard when I left the game.
