Learn World of Warcraft item management: sell gray items, toss unwanted gear, and manage your inventory efficiently.
The general rule is to sell any gray item you find. If your bags (inventory slots) are full while in the field, you can toss items. If you collect many of the same items from enemies, consider tossing different items to avoid discarding the same ones repeatedly, though this might still be the best strategy.
It is always wise to drop gray equipment before gray weapons.
Late in the game, it may be beneficial to drop white items, even those related to your professions (skills like blacksmithing or tailoring), if you have small quantities and they are below the quality of items you are currently using.
It may even be advisable to drop potions and bandages before other items.
- Prioritize discarding gray equipment over gray weapons.
- Consider dropping white items of your professions if you have few and they are lower quality than your current gear.
- Potions and bandages are often good candidates for discarding when inventory is full.
