Magnetism glitch

[ChrisB]

i found an axe with magnetism, and used it once. Now I permanently have this magnetism which makes it impossible to throw unwanted items into a pit of lava. I've already got a chest full of backpacks full of broken armour!

Has anybody else experienced this? if so did you find a way to solve it?

Are you sure you are not wearing any meteor armors? They have magnetism. You have to remove the armors when you try to get rid of things.

If your character is glitched with magnetism even without the axe, creating a meteor armor piece, wearing it and then removing it may trigger the game to remove the magnetism status from your character. But that is just a guess.

tried putting on meteor armor on and back off and it worked, thanks.

I've had something similar happen when I was wearing my first meteorite chest piece with Magnetisim I. I replaced it with a different meteorite chest piece from a rare mob drop (or chest) that had Protection I and Fiery Aura. I continued having the Magnetisim ability with the second chest place. I didn't spend time testing/experimenting so I apologize for the anecdotal addition.

I believe meteorite armor always has the enchant on it, even if it's not listed.
