Starting with the recently found Over Encumbereance exploit. It's a simple process to ensure you never become OE again. Anytime you do find yourself slogging away, drop any of your major items and command your NPC to pick it up.

Turns out this item will not count towards your companions total item count, meaning you can pick up everything always!

Want to up your Character Creation? Head to your house in Sanctuarywith Dogmeat as your companion. This cheat works on consoles, and we've tested it successfully on PS4 and Xbox One.

Under furniture near Shawn's bed is You're Special, a helpful Book that grants readers a +1 increase in any stat.

Pick up the book, collect the instant stat boost, and then drop it. Order Dogmeat to pick it up, then grab it yourself just before he does. The timing on this is VERY difficult...you want to snatch the book the split second before he leans down. Keep him fully in your field of view and set him a little away from the book so you can watch him approach.

If timed correctly, he'll drop the book and you'll still have a copy in your inventory. Pick up his book and drop both. Most times, picking up both books triggers one, allowing you to increase a stat. Repeating the process allows you to collect near-infinite books and boost your stats.

In theory this duplication method should be applicable to most items in Fallout 4, though we haven't tested it that far

Crafting without using Resources

First head over to a station that lets you craft items, for example in diamond city or at your home. Before you start it's important to know that this only works on items that you could potentially build. So it has to be highlighted in bright green in the crafting screen.





To do this exploit simply pick an item and hold A an then B or X and Circe if you're on playstation and then release the two buttons at the same time. You know you did it correctly if the menu in the background switches back to the main category screen. If you did it wrong, the menu in the background won't change. In this case cancel the crafting process and try again and you won't lose any resources.
