HOW TO PROGRESS AS A MAGE! (Hypixel Skyblock)

Today we’re going to be covering a very requested video here on the channel a lot of people ask me what the really good early mid game and late game sets when it comes to running the mage class i personally run the tank class but as with a mage setup

So i’m basically mage but i’m actually the tank class for more ehp it’s uh it’s all it’s all complicated but nonetheless today we’re going to be talking about three different stages of becoming a major on hypixel skyblock kind of different money milestones as well how much things cost what you should be

Running with them honestly i think it’s gonna be a really good one so anyways if you guys are excited for this video make sure you guys are subscribed only a small percentage of you guys are and you can change your mind absolutely any time and it doesn’t cost you a single thing

Anyways without further ado we’re gonna jump right into the video today’s video actually costed me a good amount of coins because i bought quite a few items that i wanted to show for some of the lower tiers and just because they’re lower tiers doesn’t mean that some of these items are cheap

Mage is the most expensive class by a long shot archer catches up when you get to some of the later floors with boomerang as well as with necron head diamond and like necron set and overall it gets quite pricey as well near the end but mage has significantly been the most expensive

Um class to run since floor one was released so today we’re gonna be talking about three stages of them i have a set or two to show for each uh stage as well as some of the things that you can work and what level you should

Be at when you’re kind of trying to achieve these things so first off when you start at dungeons you should be using a dragon set if your level catacombs level zero and you’re just starting on floor one you should be using either whatever best set you have it won’t be dungeonized

Which means that you can wear it in any floor so for example a regular superior set a regular y set is really good for mage starting off just regular plane wise or or even young seth you want to run really fast anything that honestly your best armor set that you

Have where you get the most hp most defense and most mana so those are the most important parts there’s also two reforges that are very reoccurring throughout all stages of this and that will be necrotic and loving and we’ll get into those as we go once you start leveling up your catacombs once

You reach floor three you’re gonna start grinding for an armor set called adaptive adaptive is one of the first armor sets that you should really aim for as a mage honestly for any class adaptive was one of those sets that almost every single dungeons player wore for a very long period of time

While waiting for future floors and better armor sets to be released adaptive was really great because it gave set bonuses for every single class as you can see berserk healer mage tank and archer all had different set bonuses while wearing this set it also came with a really cool unique

Color for each class that you were running while wearing the set in the dungeon which was really cool as well what’s really good about this set is that it honestly caters for every single class so with mage for example you get an extra 50 intelligence just for running the class and wearing

The entire set um every five catacomb levels as well this armor piece gains plus two percent stats which is really good so as you level up your adaptive armor was getting better with you so the sooner you could get your hands on one of these things the better these

Armor sets are actually relatively cheap nowadays the boots actually are under 100 000 coins the most expensive piece being the chest plate i believe it was like two the four mil i honestly can’t remember off top my head but in that area you can get the full set for less than five million

Coins um it’s just an estimate obviously prices vary but time recording this you could get this whole set for five million coins the first weapon that kind of goes along with this is the bonzo staff so the bonzo staff is something that you get on floor two um

Floor one actually sorry from fighting bonzo i believe it’s floor one hold up i haven’t done these floors in a good while uh bonzo floor one actually yeah so floor one you have a chance at getting a bonzo staff from a chest the bonzo staff is one of the first mage

Weapons that you will come across it’s one that i used for a while as well as many other players so the bonzo staff is actually really cool it kind of shoots out like this little balloon type feature that does impact damage when it hits i’m going to be focusing on right-click

Mages by the way not left-click in this video um mainly because i have no experience with it i run tank mage so i’m used to the mage weapons and armor sets but i’m not used to left-clicking so hopefully uh you guys can figure that part out for yourself

So i quickly want to warp over to the crips i wanna see how much damage we can actually do with some of these things i believe my talismans are still in bizarre yep perfect so let me actually throw on the adaptive set obviously this is way better inside of a dungeon

But outside the dungeon’s sake we as you can see we actually just uh we killed it so we can kill crips we’re doing 17.8k damage right now uh without the pedo and so uh yeah we’re doing we’re doing we’re doing good we’re doing we’re doing great but as i said this is

For an early mage setup it’s tons of fun to use because you can just hold down right click and with ultimate wise five it only costs 50 mana to actually use the ability so even without a like a pedo or anything i can kind of just hold right click and just

Spam away with this thing dealing impact damage wherever it lands so that’s the early game i recommend going for these you should usually use this setup until you reach around 25. i found that i used this setup for until i was around um catacombs 25 and i’ll explain why in just a second

When we reach mid game so once you get to 25 you can finally move on to the mid game of your mage setup and uh yeah let’s talk about some of those sets right now so as i said there you have it the early game setup for the catacombs um

Adaptive honestly all reliable i wore my adaptive set for a very very long time uh one more thing about the reforge is you’re going to want to put necrotic on your your helmet your legs and your boots everything except for what this helm with this chest play has i just happened

To buy this from the auction house with necrotic on the chest plate necrotic is really good on the helmet legs and boots because it actually provides an extra 120 um intelligence and also scales depending on what rare the armor piece is as the reforge does the reason why you

Want loving on your chest plate we’re going to talk to in a second so now it’s time to move on to mid game and this is where things start getting getting very very expensive um also just for reference the bonzo staff is roughly six million coins for a decent one right

Now on the auction house you can buy a clean one for about two mil but if you want a good one they’re about six million coins that’s already five stars so in terms of mid game there’s two main armor sets that i recommend and that i used

So first we have young dragon armor and we also have wise dragon armor each of these have different levels and the reason why that you have these two in here is because once you reach cat comes level 25 you can actually wear five star that dragon uh or

Young armor sorry and this is where you can actually start working your way up through the ranks a lot faster so one thing that you should keep in mind though once you’re going mage and you passed your adaptive phase or even while you’re wearing adaptive

Too try and go to ophelia and take a look at the goggles the goggles are actually a really good headpiece and actually there’s one for each stage here so dark goggles would be really good for early game 77.6 k coins uh depending on your talisman the one that you get from

Not serious but the dark auction one the sealed family as you can see right here makes a discount on this three percent off at the shop so i believe it’s probably 80k maybe dark goggles though your abilities deal 50 damage to undead monsters nearly every single mob in the catacombs

Is undead and that’s why this is really good as you progress as well shadow goggles this is a really good mid-tier one 776 000 coins as you can see your abilities now deal plus 60 damage down dead monsters and this is what i recommend wearing while you’re running some of

These dragon sets so only focus on the three quarters of it don’t look at the heads kind of just use um the helmets for this part and once you’ve actually completed floor seven you can actually and your catacombs level 28 you can also get the wither goggles so

By the time you’re wearing your um necrotic or wise dragon armor you can actually run a weather goggles at the top so those are really good for mage because with weather goggles your abilities deal plus 70 damage to undead monsters and this is actually still the best helmet for mage

When it comes to late game as well we’ll get to that in a second so some of the weapons that you’re going to come across while you’re in this phase um when you have um catacombs level 25 you’re gonna see yourself using a spirit scepter you might even be using a yeti sword

And if you have a little bit more coins to spend you could even end up using a midas staff all three of these weapons are actually really good when it comes to running mage they’ve all had their time in the spotlight in terms of the meta

And um well now they don’t because of are the next weapon in late game but they were all really important when it came to some of the mid game play so for example spirit scepter similar thing to the bonzo mask except for it shoots guided bats so you can actually shoot these blow

Mobs up as you can see i’m doing 32k damage now per hit with this uh with the spirit scepter outside dungeons here and uh it’s already looking a little bit better no armor on by the way let me throw on just a set of young dragon armor five stars

There we go so now we’re doing 42k damage as you can see right here shoots guided bats honestly a ton of fun to use i used to use this thing for a long while and i just actually sold mine like two days ago another weapon is the yeti sword a lot

Of fun you kind of hurl chunks towards your mobs that you’re trying to kill and as you can see you can do a lot of damage with this i believe that’s 300k damage right there and you can also kind of just spam right click it in a similar fashion

If we go in here well it has a one second cooldown but one second really isn’t that much and as you can see you can just kind of clear up rooms and honestly it’s a really fun weapon to use next one is the mida staff the most

Expensive of this of these three by far um actually to get a good one you need to pay a hundred million coins if sirius is elected as mayor and or scorpio sorry and he has the dark auction mayor and you can buy this from him otherwise you can buy them on the

Auction house for 125 mil plus um and then also make sure you’re always putting ultimate wise on these things as you can see we’re doing a million damage per mob right now as you can see in our chat so as you can see they kind of scale up in terms of price

As well as damage that you can do with them so yeah that’s kind of the scale start with the spirit scepter maybe work towards a yeti sword or you can just jump straight to a mida staff all three of these weapons though tons of fun to use and once your cat

Once your cat comes level 28 you can start wearing your wise dragon armor wise dragon armor obviously a lot stronger than young um kind of just based on that progression and as you can see it actually had 300k damage to my midastaff damage and instead of 300k now we are doing

330 to 450 with our yeti sword which is actually quite a large improvement if i’m being lost and it looks like our chunks are getting stuck on the ceiling in this room but i think you guys get the overall point um golden ghoul dead lavaroon you love to see it but yeah so

That’s kind of the scale of this now we’re gonna move on to late game this is where it like it gets really expensive as you go up with mage and i think you guys can kind of understand why these weapons get very very expensive as you move up so

There you have it that’s mid game for you um young to wise and kind of the dragon armor phase um if you hit catacombs level 30 it’s not even worth using superior anymore because you’re getting really close to late game i’d say 30 plus is where where you’re

Looking at late game mage right now maybe a little bit past that but you can start using some of the late game stuff around catholic 30 and i’ll explain why in a second once you can start comfortably clearing floor seven you start working towards some of these

Items as you can see in this chest right here i have a hyperion which is one of the most expensive swords in the game right now um as you can see ultimate wise five bunch of other enchants five stars this thing costs a lot of money mainly

Because of the necron handle that you need to craft it you guys have probably seen some videos on the channel recently about some of this late game gear that you’re about to see here as well so in terms of the set you’re wearing a necrotic wither goggles as you can see on the

Head you’re using a loving storm chest plate all five star storm leggings and storm boots so three quarter storm as well as with those wither goggles that we were talking about from ophelia not too long ago the goggles actually are really good because you’re doing ability damage with your hyperion

And so by having these goggles you’re doing an extra 70 damage to undead monsters which is actually really good so in terms of this setup it it’s very pricey it’s quite expensive the armor set alone well over 100 million coins in terms of the sword you’re looking at over four

To 500 million coins right now um it gets very pricey and as soon as you start putting on good enchants whether it be smite 7 giant killer 7 sharpness 7 whatever you feel like putting on your weapon it gets very expensive as well so quickly we’re going to go over to the

Crips we’re going to see how much damage we can actually do while wearing this setup outside dungeons so right now quick little right click i just did 3.8 million damage to four mobs to one mob oh a couple more spawns let me try and single out a mob here

Um i guess i can kill this one and then boom we do 944k the reason why this setup is so op though and it’s not as much damage as the midas staff the mida staff is you have to aim it and you have to try and line up your hits

Hyperion i can just stand back and just spam right click once you have the scrolls attached on and you can absolutely obliterate a room it actually reminds me this setup’s actually more like 600 million plus for the sword um because the scrolls completely forgot about that price

There’s three scrolls you need to put on the hyperion each one over 65 million coins at the time recording so yeah it gets relatively pricey quite quickly if i look at auction house right now maybe we can see if there’s a max one that someone’s selling uh this one that

One doesn’t have any scrolls on it this one has wither impact as you can see five star 615 mil this one here weather impact as well four-star for 605. so yeah you’re looking at the 600 million range this one’s 600 mil on the dot these other ones without scrolls

Obviously a lot cheaper because uh some of the most expensive parts aren’t yet put onto the sword so obviously as you know as you add more things to it it gets more and more expensive i’d say 600 million coins for it kind of clean and with the scrolls on it that

Would be my guess so yeah this is the late game setup very expensive in terms of pets while you’re working your way through dungeons sheep is the go-to mage pet and there’s many reasons behind it if we look into our pets menu my sheet pet here reduces the mana cost

Of abilities by 20 which is amazing when you’re running mage already gives you plus 20 ability damage and plus 200 intelligence as base stats um gives the 10 shield after not taking damage for 10 seconds uh overheal so it’s an extra buffer if you do get attacked all of a sudden

And dungeon wizard increases your total mana by 25 while in dungeons and if you put a textbook on it which is a pet item you can get an extra 100 intelligence increases the pet’s intelligence by 100 sorry not your overall intelligence so overall there’s just so many dungeon buffs that come into one

Single pet like if we kill one mom now we’ve already upped their damage by like 20 percent actually is what exactly how much we have to buy so yeah it’s tons of fun to run with um this pedo honestly sheep is by far the best mage pet when it

Comes to later floors you might start switching to wither skeleton or ender dragon when it comes to try and do damage to some of the uh boss mobs try and kill them faster so you can start clearing a lot faster but overall um sheep pet is going to be

Your best friend as a mage and it will be for a long while so quickly it up it’s an alchemy pet you can level it very quickly and it’s uh very easy to use right off the bat that was a lot of talking hopefully you guys were able to pick something up from

That and maybe it helped you a little bit if you guys want me to do a similar thing for other classes i’d love to i think it’s a really cool idea to kind of share some knowledge about some of this stuff because a lot of people are

Scared to get into dungeons because they just don’t know what they need to actually succeed in it and it’s not too hard once you know what you need to get so hopefully you guys did pick something up and this was educational in some way if you guys did enjoy the video make
