Magic Eraser
Erase junk and free up bag space instantly. Clear completed quest items, outgrown consumables, vendor trash, and grays with a click of the mini-map button. A curated junk list keeps what you need safe, while Auto-Vend sells the rest at your next merchant.
TL;DR: For anyone whose bags are always full. It tosses the junk and keeps what you need, and Marie Kondo would be so proud!
Features
🧹 One-Click Cleanup // The mini-map button shows the cheapest junk in your bags, and one click, or one key press, makes it vanish.
💰 Auto-Vend & Bank Retrieval // Junk sells itself the moment you open a merchant, and junk hiding in your bank comes home to go along with it.
🔔 Smart Alerts // Chat tells you when a quest item is safe to toss, and a tooltip line marks anything ready to go.
✍️ Manual Delete Assistance // No more typing DELETE: binning a Rare or better item that no vendor will buy takes a simple Yes or No.
🦺 Safety First // Never touches anything green or better, white trade goods, or quest items you still need unless you list them yourself, and your Protect List guards anything you name.
Setup
- Install the add-on, ideally using CurseForge or Wago.
- Log in. The mini-map button wears the icon of the cheapest junk in your bags.
- Left-click to erase it, or right-click to protect it.
- Visit a merchant. Auto-Vend and Bank Retrieval are already on, so the rest sells itself.
- "But wait, there's more… bag space!"
How It Works
What Gets Erased
Six kinds of clutter, plus anything you put on your Erase List. The quest, food and ammo lists are hand-curated.
| Clutter | When it goes |
|---|---|
| Completed quest items | Once you've handed in the last quest that needs it. |
| Dead-end quest starters | The moment it drops, if your race or class can never take the quest. |
| Outgrown food and drink | Once you've leveled well past it. |
| Outgrown arrows and bullets | Once vendors sell you something better. |
| White weapons and armor | Whenever a vendor will buy them. |
| Gray trash | Whenever a vendor will buy it. |
- The cheapest stack always goes first, and nothing is erased in combat.
Mini-Map Button
| Action | Effect |
|---|---|
| Left-Click | Erase the lowest-value flagged item. |
| Right-Click | Add the flagged item to this character's Protect List. |
| Middle-Click | Clear this character's Protect List. |
| Shift + Right-Click | Toggle Auto-Vend on or off. |
| Shift + Middle-Click | Open the Options Interface. |
- Hover the button to see what's next, what it's worth, and a Clutter Report of the bag slots and gold still tied up in junk.
Auto-Vend & Bank Retrieval
- Auto-Vend sells every bit of flagged junk the moment a merchant window opens.
- Bank Retrieval pulls junk out of your bank when you open it, as much as your bags can hold.
- A chat line sums up each visit: what went, and what it was worth.
Key Bindings
Find these under Key Bindings in the game menu, in the Magic Eraser section.
| Binding | Effect |
|---|---|
| Erase Lowest-Value Item | Erase the lowest-value flagged item, just like a left-click. |
| Add Hovered Item to Protect List | Protect the item under your mouse on this character. |
| Add Hovered Item to Erase List | Flag the item under your mouse as junk on this character. |
