How to Get Duplicate Items | The Bazaar
When a duplicate is available for purchase, both your existing item and the shop item will show an upward scrolling chevron overlay.
Hovering over the shop item will display the exact upgrade effect before you confirm the purchase. Any interaction that lets you click to collect an item, including monster rewards, counts as a purchase and can trigger the upgrade.
Using Item Effects to Create Duplicates
Some items can generate copies of themselves or other items. These will upgrade your gear if they are obtained in a way that counts as a buy.
If the purchased duplicate has an enchantment, the enchantment on your existing item will be replaced with the one on the new item.
Level Up and Encounter Upgrades
Certain level up choices or encounter events can upgrade items without requiring a duplicate purchase.
This method does not allow you to preview the changes, so it helps to know the item’s benefits in advance.
No Combining from Inventory
Owning two copies in your inventory without buying one will not trigger an upgrade.
If you gain an extra copy in a way that bypasses the buy interaction, such as an item creating it directly in your inventory, the upgrade will not occur.
Final Blurb
In The Bazaar, duplicate items are gained by buying the same item you already own from shops, encounters, or monster rewards that count as purchases. This will upgrade the item to the next tier, while simply holding two copies without buying one will not work.
