Dupando AO VIVO Ragnarok @THOR

Overview

The video creator says they have spent “months” investigating an ongoing item duplication (“dup”) bug in Ragnarok Online, which they claim has been happening since late 2024 and continues into May 2025.

They repeatedly frame the goal as documentation and warning rather than teaching cheating, while still walking through how the exploit supposedly works.

---

Background and claimed origins of the investigation

• The creator describes an escalation beginning mid-February after a “mysterious screenshot” appeared accusing several players (including named streamers) of duplicating items.
• They claim they received information from a contact named Daniel, who allegedly negotiated trades involving:
  • “Verlares”
  • extremely large quantities of “billion spheres”
• According to the creator, after they forwarded these screenshots to staff:
  • Daniel (and possibly Caio) was banned
  • Caio Verlares allegedly disappeared
• Despite the bans, the creator claims the duplication continued, and investigators expanded the search for additional participants.

Claimed key contributor and theory

• A researcher named Diego Souza is presented as crucial.
• The creator claims Diego conducted research and, with technical help (including references to a developer/bug-fixing expert in the community), helped produce a working explanation/theory.
• The video claims the duplication is linked to map instability, where specific maps enter a “ghost”/unstable state.

Technical mechanism (as described)

The creator’s explanation includes the following points:

• Ragnarok maps are organized by zone servers, so instability in one map’s zone can affect other maps within the same zone.
• Investigators supposedly identified which maps had instability (“ghost state”) by:
  • testing relationships between maps in the same zone
  • using technical methods to determine map/zone behavior
• The creator claims that at 1 AM on Friday, May 9, Diego reported that duplication was possible and provided instructions:
  • go to the specific unstable maps
  • attempt duplication actions by interacting with items while the map is in a ghost/unstable condition

Demonstration and reported results

The creator provides a step-by-step demonstration using item drops and recovery:

• They claim that upon entering an unstable map and leaving it, items would duplicate in their possession.
• They demonstrate using multiple banana hats (a test item), claiming:
  • items disappeared briefly on entry
  • then multiplied after leaving/re-entering
• They claim they repeated the method with more “real” high-visibility items (e.g., “Revenge of the Dead” mentioned in subtitles).
• They state that refined/enhanced items duplicated with the same refinement, enchantments, and insignia, arguing this makes it harder to dismiss as “legitimate copies” or normal trading artifacts.
• They also claim that after a screenshot of the duplication evidence went viral, their account was banned/blocked, preventing further login.

Claims about market impact

The creator argues the duplication caused severe economic disruption, including:

• spheres allegedly being sold in massive quantities
• vendors allegedly selling 1000+ spheres per day
• a specific mention of a 1 billion sphere item costing around R$ 5

They also claim staffing actions may be insufficient because moderators supposedly need proof/log correlation and may not have automated ways to locate duping occurrences quickly.

---

Overall conclusion / opinion

• The video’s main message is that a real duplication exploit is occurring, is widespread, and needs urgent fixing.
• The creator expresses regret and disappointment that they feel they’ve had to publicly warn the community.
• They end hoping this will be the last video needed about Ragnarok Online duplication, while signaling future content.
