• On-the-go junk tagging: Mark unwanted items as junk while looting.
• Instant bulk sales: Sell all junk with one button press at any vending machine.

• The system cross-references your equipped loadout to prevent costly mistakes

Why This Matters

• Seamless integration with Lost Loot retrieval systems
• Optimizes inventory space for late-game farming and build experimentation
