How to unlock the Take It to the Max achievement in RESIDENT EVIL 5 - Definitive Guide

The rotten egg glitch still works for quick money.

Here's a video showing how:

Step 1: Give Sheva all the items you want to duplicate

Step 2: Load the game (1-2 in video)

Step 3: Connect a 2nd controller on another xbox account
*Does not need to be a gold account*

Step 4: Reload the game and give Chris the eggs

Step 5: Using Chris' controller (main account) quit the game and save

Keep doing this as many times as needed.

For those that wonder how to sign in a second controller in the game. In the Xbox Home menu, sign in an account to your second controller. Move into the game and once there just press Start on the second controller and it should work.

You need a second account, I tried a guest account and it didn't work. You can make a second non Xbox live account in about 5 mins it's really easy. Also great guide thumbs up from me!!

Is it also possible to do duplicate items with another (real) person? I remember this could be done on the 360 version. Thanks

@CadmusTheDragon Yes, I can confirm that you can do this trick with a real person. I've done this with a friend multiple times and it has helped in getting our favorite weapons to the max.

If you don't already have those maxed out weapons, the Rotten Egg is the most valuable, tradable item. Hence the solution.

I CAN CONFIRM
Once you get the achievement for owning all weapons and such

ONCE YOU FULLY UPGRADE A WEAPON (are able to buy infinite ammo for it)

you CAN SELL ANY WEAPON YOU FULLY UPGRADED for money towards upgrading other weapons, thank god.

Don't get why you do this with rotten eggs that only give 2k. If you have played through the game you will have plenty to fully upgrade a couple or more of the weapons. Do that, and then use the above method to duplicate the fully upgraded weapons. On average upgraded weapons sell for between 17 and 26k. The hydra I believe is the most valuable to sell. If you are duplicating 9 upgraded weapons, then in one run of this you will get about180k in a couple of minutes. That's a lot of rotten eggs. Duplicate upgraded weapons and you will have the achievement in about 20 minutes.

As of 05/12/24, this still works on the Xbox S/X.
The 2nd controller has to be signed in on a different profile before attempting.

An alternative solution in the event of a patch for the rotten egg glitch. Credits go to UnrealEntity from the Resident Evil 5 (Xbox 360) page.

Chapter 5-2 on Amateur difficulty is a route that will make an average of 12,500 gold per minute on runs. For this, approach the level until you reach the first elevator. Ride the elevator up and kill every Licker to net an average of 5 gems a run. Do not exit through the door; instead save and exit the game and repeat from Continue Game.

Seeing the guides on this game for Xbox one is pretty barren only giving us the duplication glitch and no other useful info. The duplication glitch is a game changer no doubt but with a newbie like me who needs to see what guns are left and how much they cost, this information is quite helpful. I like to plan out my money to know how much I need.

You will need about 1.1m to upgrade all of them unless my math is off

Pistols
M92F:86,000
H&K:84,000
SIGP226:81,000
M93R:86,000

Shotguns
Ithaca:70,000
M3:73,000
Jailbreaker:85,000
Hydra:94,000

Machine guns
Vz61:75,000
AK74:73,000
MP5:67,000
SIG556:71,000

Rifles
S75:90,000
Dragunov:62,000
H&KPSG-1: 64,000

Magnums
S&WM29:78,000
Lighting Hawk:71,000
S&Wm500:89,000

To unlock all the upgrades for every weapon you will need in excess of $1,000,000. The fastest way to earn money is by exploiting the Rotten Egg Glitch (described here) or if you want to do it "legit" you can make runs through the two temple levels (4-1 and 4-2) and pick up all the treasures. You can also begin 5-1 and kill a bunch of Lickers to get their treasure, then quit out (save your inventory) and repeat.

For this trophy you need to completely upgrade every stat on each weapon. Explosive weapons, stun rod, gatling gun and the longbow cannot be upgraded which cuts the list down quite a bit. There are a couple of areas in the game you can farm for cash along with the egg duplication trick.

5-3
This was my preferred method of farming. When you go up the ladder at the beginning of the level, take the left path. This will take you to a room with a safe which contains a treasure worth $3,000. Continue on your normal path to the room where the Reapers drop down. Before getting too close to the Reaper nest, you'll need to deal with any Majini in the vicinity. Not only are they armed with guns, but the reapers won't drop if they are still around. Reapers drop a Power Stone when killed which is worth $5,000. When replaying the level, select it again via chapter select instead of choosing to continue or you won't be able to collect the treasure from the safe again. Cash per run ~ $8,000-$18,000

5-2
There is a U shaped hallway in this level which contains almost a dozen Lickers. Once killed they may drop a Lion Heart worth $2,500. After you've killed and collected all the hearts exit the game and choose the continue option instead of chapter select. By doing this you will spawn at the beginning of the hallway preventing the trek to this part of the level again. Cash per run ~ $7,500-$12,000.

Egg Duplication
Before beginning this process you will first need either two players or two controllers.

  • Go to the chapter select screen and pick any stage
  • At the item management screen remove everything from your inventory apart from the eggs
  • Player 2 should give you all of their eggs
  • Now quit the game and choose to save your progress
  • Player 2 quits the game, but must not save their progress or they will lose the eggs.


If you're in need of a partner one can be found in this thread.

As previously described in the Egg Hunt trophy. We invite a friend who has at least one rotten egg. Then he hands it to you. The friend then exits the game using the PS button. Attention: The friend must be invited, otherwise you will be kicked out too.

Your session will not be interrupted, which means you can invite him to your place again. When he comes in, he will still have one egg, since he left WITHOUT SAVING. He passes it to you again, and now you have two. Somewhere after five such procedures, it is better for both of you to enter the game and save, that is, until the first checkpoint. Now you can change places. And this means a friend creates a session and invites you. Since you now have five of them, naturally your friend will receive five from you for each time you visit him. Well, after about five such procedures, save by logging into the game. Now switch places again, so that you invite a friend who already has, well, about 25 eggs. And in general further in the same spirit. The number of eggs with each shift will naturally increase many times, something like this: 1-5-25-125-625-3125. one rotten egg costs 2000, imagine how much bobble there will be. Although you won't need that much. It's best to do it with a friend who also needs this trophy. Because guys, the time to transfer the eggs will take about 3 hours on average, they are transferred only one at a time, that’s what’s offensive. The main thing is DO NOT FORGET to exit the game using the PS button on the joystick.

PS you can share cartridges in the same way. But not with treasures.

There is Another Simple Way to Make Money.
Let's turn on: "Chapter 5-1" Mode: "Professional" and It is desirable that it be at least an Infinite "RPG" And go ahead. Mobs Drop Treasures of 2.5k+ After you kill the First Two Mobs. There will be a Room In Which There Is: “Safe” In It Lies 6k Gold. Along the Path you can Collect more junk and also sell it) In General, Maximum 20k-25k Takes 2-3 Minutes) You can also Collect 2 Treasures at the Beginning. One is above you at the very Beginning. 2nd go to the Left and there will be a beetle.

For those who do not have endless ammo for weapons (in short, have not yet mastered the game to the end), the best place to earn money is chapter 4-1. The only enemies there are pooches, who quickly die with one cartridge (and the whole crowd if you shoot from a shotgun). There are also a lot of bryuliks there for 1000 each. The level can be completed in a couple of minutes without even rushing.

Alternatively, in order not to worry about getting money, just start playing cooperatively with a random partner. And then, sooner or later, one of them will have a golden egg with him, which does not have a quantity number. It is technically infinite. You can try asking for such an egg (When he gives it, it won’t disappear from him either). If he doesn’t give it back, select “End co-op game” in the menu and take the egg from the bot without leaving the game (the player’s entire inventory remains with the bot until he exits the level).

The rules for using the egg are as follows:

1) First put it in the storage (in the mission settings between levels). It is advisable to sell the entire stock of old golden eggs in advance to avoid the disappearance of the infinity glitch.

2) The egg in the storage has become endless, but you need to sell it either from your inventory or by accumulating enough in the storage. To do this, we clean the inventory of objects and weapons and fill it with golden eggs.

3) Eggs are sold as follows: It is sold 2 times. Moreover, the first time you can only sell or move it. It can no longer be given away or put into storage. So, we sell each egg once, and put the rest into inventory (just in case, make a supply of endless eggs).

4) Place 2 eggs in your inventory, sell each one once and combine both. Now this egg can be sold endlessly. And if you throw it into your inventory, it will be replenished with 999 eggs (it’s easier to sell it en masse). Just don't sell them all at once. Leave 10 pieces in reserve. If an egg with a negative value suddenly appears, just sell it completely.

5) The golden egg has the ability to completely restore health. But to use it in the game, you need to take it into your inventory and sell it once (otherwise it will be unusable and will disappear at the first checkpoint).

By playing online or asking friends you can receive an “unlimited” Golden Egg as a gift. It is “unlimited” because when moved to the “backpack” it remains in the inventory. The process of farming money comes down to filling a backpack with eggs and selling them. Each run gives 18,000. If you have a joystick with a firmware function, each run lasts about 30 seconds.

In my opinion, the most optimal option for “farming” money is the following: we start chapter 5-2, go to the elevator, after you go down, there will be a U-shaped corridor, there will be lickers in it, we run and shoot them with a magnum or bazooka (the ammo should be endless ), we run to the door, but do not go into the door, go to the menu, click continue the game, and you are again in the U-shaped corridor. The corridor takes 20 seconds to run through, in one run you will pick up 5-6 lion's hearts, the difficulty level does not matter.

So that's it. We launch chapter 3-1 on the pro (or veteran, if the pro is not open) and proceed as follows:

1) On the first island we take a beetle and a stone (we do not take part of the ornament).

2) We sail to the chicken island and take a beetle and a vase there (there will also be eggs and, possibly, gold).

3) We sail to the island in the northeast. There we take 2 stones and an urn (we don’t take the ornament so that the natives don’t come running).

4) We swim to the broken boat and take a beetle and a rocket launcher from it, which you can then also drive for 1000 gold.

5) We swim to the northern building and take a beetle and another vase there.

Then we exit the game and save. In total, you get 16-18k gold per call. Then we choose to continue and repeat the entire procedure as many times as necessary. Good luck.

To fully upgrade all weapons, you will need 900,000 credits . You receive credits for killed enemies and sold treasures. When completing the game on the Professional difficulty level, you will receive double the currency for killing enemies. For examples of fast credit farming, see the tip for the War Hero trophy.

To earn this amount of money, it is enough to have a friend and at least one rotten egg in your inventory. Personally, they fell out of liqueurs for me. What you need to do for dupe:
1) Your friend must invite you to their lobby so that you have an invitation notification.
2) Go to his lobby and give him all the rotten eggs.
3) IMMEDIATELY open the notifications and the same invitation to the lobby, go to it, rejecting any saving of inventory progress.
4) Total: you gave him your eggs, came by invitation, and returned them without taking them from your friend. Thus, you can multiply their number as much as you like. Each rotten egg costs 2k.

If anyone needs help with eggs, I can help. My PSN: gutenleid. At the same time, we can forget about Versus.

The glitch with Rotten Egg and two gamepads with X360/PS3/XOne does not work on PS4 - items can be duplicated, but only with the help of another person online. In short - you invite a person, go to any quiet level, the friend gives you the items that you want to split and then leaves without saving your inventory. You invite, repeat the procedure - you get x2 of the desired item. Repeat until you collect the required number of items (1 rotten egg sells for 2000 coins, that is, in total you will need about 450 eggs). But given the time it takes to connect, disconnect and download, in my opinion this is not the most effective way.

A faster way, in my opinion, is the corridor with liqueurs at 5-2 (a video of the place is in the tooltip for the "War Hero" trophy). I would recommend farming it on a professional with endless ammo in L.Hawk - the liquor drops in 2-3 shots, they still won’t have time to reach you, and extra money from them won’t hurt. One run takes 80-90 seconds, for which you get 12500-13000 coins. In total, farming 900 thousand will take from 2.5 to 3.5 hours - turn on the music, lean back in your chair and the time will fly by.

I found a more convenient way for myself.
Done in Chapter 6-3 during the final battle with Wesker.
As soon as you appear in the volcano, shoot an RPG at a rock from which a Diamond (Marquise) falls out, pick it up and immediately exit the game, saving everything you collected. In fact, from the moment you exit the game (pointing at Quit) until the moment the level starts, you can close your eyes without looking at the screen, meditate and click the cross when items appear in the menu (after a couple of replays, you can already determine by the sound with your eyes closed when in it) press the zero (so that the cursor jumps from Organize to Ready) and again the cross 2 times.
In the level we skip all the cutscenes.
As a result, in 10 minutes I collected 14 Diamond (Marquise) treasures, which I sold for 70,000. As a result, in an hour we earned 420,000 of the money we needed for the upgrade.
