Who doesn’t like the possibility of trading all those useless items?

If you’re playing the current free-to-play RPG sensation The First Descendant, you probably have wondered if you can trade the weapons and equipment that are gathering dust in your inventory.

Given that The First Descendant draws a lot of inspiration from Warframe, which has a pretty neat trading system, players are wondering whether or not The First Descendant has a similar trading system so they can ditch their unused items for something that will be useful for their journey.

Can you trade in The First Descendant?

No, it’s impossible to trade weapons or equipmentin The First Descendant as of the time of this writing on July 12, 2025. The only way that you can put your hands on new items is by either finding them yourself or buying them with premium currency.

If you’re new to The First Descendant, you’ll soon notice that the game is more close to Destiny 2 rather than Warframe in this regard. In both The First Descendant and Destiny 2, there’s no trading system in place, which leads to an infinite grind that ultimately retains the player base.
