How to Get Magnets
There are 2 ways of obtaining magnets! After getting one, you can open the Shovel window by pressing the ‘F’ key and selecting which magnet you wish to use on the left.
Magnet Boxes
Opening Magnet Boxes grants you random magnets. There is no guarantee of which type of magnet you’ll obtain, and how many you get in total. At this current time, you can dig up both Normal and Ice Magnet Boxes. The latter is only available when digging on Permafrost Island. Simply hold out the box and click anywhere on your screen to open it!
You can also purchase Magnet Boxes from Magnet Box Sellers, residing on various islands across the map. They’re easy to spot as they have a Magnet Box icon above their head! One box costs 250 in-game coins, or you can buy a pack of 5 for 1.25K.
Magnet Shovel
The Magnet Shovel is the best way to farm for Magnet Boxes. By using this shovel, you can collect Magnet Boxes, Vases, and Loot Bags, which are all items that you open for extra goodies. To obtain this shovel, you need to head to the Badlands, have 26K coins spare, and have a player level of 20+.
