If you're like me, and you play in survival, you may always want a ranged weapon in your hotbar/inventory. Problem is, bow and arrow take up two slots, so switch your sword out for the trident and ditch the bow and arrow. What you trade in damage you may gain back in inventory/convenience, Give it a try!

See what other weird/wacky stuff you can do with a trident: youtu.be/rN9JTaUvslg
