The Dropper is a companion to the Dispenser, but the two have one major difference: the Dropper spits out all items as entities, but the Dispenser shoots out some as projectiles or otherwise. They are similar in many ways to dispensers, such as placing behaviour.
Use[]
Droppers are useful over Dispensers in some cases because they can drop items that Dispensers would shoot out as entities (such as a Splash Potion or Arrows). This does mean they are useless for base defence, however they have uses as reward droppers in maps.
Crafting[]
A Dropper is crafted with 7 Cobblestone and 1 Redstone, leaving a gap in the middle.
