Tutorial:Right-Click Mage Guide

Mages differ from other classes by relying heavily on for  rather than  and. Whether the player is exploring Dungeons or fighting Bosses, this tutorial can teach them how to become an efficient mage. The best Minecraft version to play Mage in is 1.8.9, although it is not the most performant, it has lots of modifications available to improve the player's Dungeoneering experience.

Note: Gear in this tutorial will be vaguely categorized in order of importance, with a higher emphasis on Dungeons than Slayers.

This guide also mainly focuses on the right-click abilities of mage weapons more than the left-click mage beam function.

Playstyle
There are generally two playstyles for mage: Left Click Mage (mage beam) and Right Click Mage (ability spamming). Right click mage excels in regular dungeons due the regular mobs having low enough EHP to be one shot. However, in master mode, right click mage becomes obsolete due to its abysmal DPS not being even enough for even clearing. And even with a high Catacombs level, many mobs are still too tanky to be defeated by a single magic weapon ability. If you want to run master mode as mage, it is heavily recommended to run Left Click Mage with a Giant's Sword, although you will clear slower than even an Archer. For Left Click Mage, refer to the Left Click Mage guide.

Recommended Weapons
These weapons are required or heavily recommended when playing as a Mage. These often have requirements such as a high level or. Taking into consideration these items' usually high requirements and their high prices, it is not recommended to play the Mage class in the early-game.

Support Weapons
The weapons below are all support weapons and optional. Most of them are for any stage of the game, as they all have different uses.

Other Weapons
These other weapons that deal are niche as they are often overlooked or under-powered.

Recommended Armors
These armor pieces/sets either provide lots of Mana or have special abilities that can help you out as a Mage.


 * Perfect Armor or Super Heavy Armor- These armors are similar to Zombie Soldier Armor in that it does not buff Intelligence at all by default, however when reforged to Necrotic it allows for huge mana boosts inside dungeons. Their high makes them great choices at higher floors of the Catacombs. Overall, a maxed set of Super Heavy Armor is approximately as good as Tier 9 perfect armor. However, perfect is generally considered the better choice as the negative speed from Super Heavy armor can prove to be very bad. Perfect is also the more expensive choice, costing about 5 million coins as opposed to 1 million coins. Necromancer Lord leggings and boots is recommended instead of Perfect if the player can afford them. Higher levels of perfect boots can outclass a Necromancer Lord boot in terms of EHP.

Recommended Pets
Having a good mage pet can greatly improve the player's mage abilities. Listed below are some recommended pets.

Left-Click Mage

 * This is a build used by players looking for high-damage to kill bosses quickly such as Necron and Sadan.
 * People usually use Storm's Armor with a Warden Helmet reforged to Ancient until they reach 100% Critical Chance with a Dungeon Potion.
 * Left Click mages usually use Berserk weapons and setups but more optimized for mages. This includes not including attack speed due to mage beam not working with attack speed. and a bit of intelligence as well as mage beam's power is increased by the aforementioned stat.

Weapons

 * Livid Dagger is a good choice as it gives 100% Critical Chance leaving the player free to reforge their armor for Intelligence. However, it does minimal making it a poor choice for left click mage, which is primarily for late-game players.
 * The Shadow Fury and Giant's Sword can be great alternatives if the player is optimized for perfect . Giant's Sword ability is also a great option as it's ability boosts the left click mage's poor clearing power unless they have a Hyperion with Wither Impact.
 * The Hyperion was a weapon with better damage and Intelligence than the Shadow Fury. The Hyperion can also clear rooms easily with right-clicks while still dealing insane left-click damage.
 * Valkyrie is another left click weapon for the Necron Bossfight as it gives great ferocity and can deal over double the DPS of the Hyperion.
 * Giant's Sword or the Dark Claymore are the best left click mage weapons for damage.

Pets

 * Ender Dragon is the optimal pet as it gives 10% in all stats increasing your damage by an insane number, your Effective HP by around 21%, and also increasing your intelligence.
 * Blue Whale Pet can be used for left-clicking as it increases health and defense by a large amount in case that one's health stats and survivability are insufficient.
 * The Wither Skeleton Pet is the best pet for the Necron Bossfight as the Wither Blood ability boosts damage by 50% and the Death's Touch Ability boosting your Dps by 66%.
 * The Sheep Pet is still a great choice as Left-click Mage also relies on their and
 * The Golden Dragon Pet is the highest overall damage pet in the game, and is used in end-game left click mage setups.

Reforges

 * As mentioned earlier, left click mage focuses on and  but without the need for . It's recommended to use the Simple accessory power to start as it gives even   and, some  , and  . Later on, you can mimic this with Inspired, as its similar to Simple, but without the EHP boosts. Other notable accessory powers are Bloody, Hurtful, and Forceful.
 * For armor, is the most optimized for . For weapons,  is one of the best options as the combination of both give the perfect mix of  and.
 * The best reforge for the Edible Mace is Fabled, since you get 20% more damage.

Tips

 * Shooting a slow-moving projectile from a weapon like the Bonzo Staff, then swapping to a weapon with higher (i.e. the Spirit Sceptre) would cause the flying projectile to apply the held weapon's modifiers (Enchantments, intelligence, etc.) for damage.
 * Mages are usually incredibly slower than other classes, so you may want to get a Black Cat Pet or Maxor's Armor pieces.
