Added a line to the second script. I'll add it in here as well, in bold. This made the effect go away when I would unequip a piece, but then it wouldn't come back when I reequiped.

Nevermind. Got everything worked out. Was a simple matter of changing removespelleffect to removespell, after adding that first line.

For one thing, you don't need this in the middle:

						   else set NX9_DBSet to 0

Since you have it set to zero at the start, and it's only set to 1 if all the conditions are met.
