Can you drop items in Minecraft Dungeons for inventory management?

One of the more chronic problems in dungeon-crawlers like Mojang Studios' Minecraft Dungeons is the sometimes overwhelming amount of loot. Any player experienced in dungeon diving will tell you that often the most frustrating part of running them isn't the boss battles at the end—it's forgetting to empty your pockets before you go. Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to manage your inventory space such as purchasing more slots or simply dropping items you don't need.

Can You Drop Items in Minecraft Dungeons?

Unfortunately for Minecraft Dungeons players, there isn't an option to drop loot you don't want—at least, not yet.

When you run a dungeon, the loot you pick up will be specifically marked for you. This is likely to prevent fighting among teams or World of Warcraft's infamous practice of "ninjaing" valuable items. Your friends pick up items you don't want since they're exclusively meant for you and vice versa.

There isn't much of a trading system in Minecraft Dungeons, either. It goes without saying that this can be frustrating. Imagine watching your friend pick up a rare spawn you've been grinding for only to trash it because they don't use melee weapons.

Not all hope is lost, however. There is certainly a demand for some form of trade from the player base, so it will likely show up in a future patch. When this would be is unknown. Hopefully, Mojang takes the hint from its fans and implements the mechanic soon.
