Hi Chris, I think you are confusing magical items with magical powers. You certainly want to keep any magical items you get as they are more powerful than standard items. Also some adventures such as the Secret of Stoneback Hill requires you to be equipped with a magical weapon in order to defeat the undead creatures and the Voren-Thul leader. So hang on to your magical weapons and items unless you find a better one along the way. The problem here has to do with magical powers. Many of the standard monsters in the game such as skeletons, murkmen, goblins, etc can be easily defeated with magical powers such as illusion and elementalism. However, in the proving Grounds there are creatures that are able to defeat your magical powers, and can only be defeated by conventional combat. While they are able to defeat magic powers such as illusion and elementalism they are not able to defeat magical weapons with a seriously high melee rating.
