How to drop items in Minecraft Dungeons and salvage old equipment to earn emeralds?

Minecraft Dungeons is the latest title from Mojang, a new spin on the classic Minecraft game. It can be played solo, but it’s far more fun and satisfying when played with your best friends. This is because there are certain levels in the dungeon crawler that have been specifically designed to be played in groups.

The game can be played in a local co-op session with your peers or you can simply host or join an online session with those on your friend list. It also allows up to four players to participate in one session, while allowing members to easily drop in and out of the games.

How to drop items in Minecraft Dungeons?

While the game can certainly be fun and exciting when played with friends, it doesn’t allow users to drop items on the floor. This means that you won’t be able to drop any of the weapons, gems, armour, or loots for your friends. The game doesn’t even allow you to steal items from each other. This is quite disappointing, considering that you will come across tons of items during your adventure. It can also be frustrating especially when a group of friends are looking to work their way through the story together. However, you do get to share consumable items amongst everyone in your party.
