1. Playstyle

Right-Click Mage vs Left-Click Mage

The Mage class offers two playstyles:

  1. Right-Click Mage - This style excels in regular dungeons due to the mobs having lower EHP, making them easier to defeat with ability spamming.
  2. Left-Click Mage - This is the recommended style for master mode dungeons, especially with weapons like the Giant's Sword or Dark Claymore.
Warning: Right-Click Mage becomes less effective in master mode due to its lower DPS.

For a detailed guide on Left-Click Mage, you can refer to the separate Left-Click Mage Guide.

2. Best Pets for Mage

  1. Ender Dragon - Optimal for all stats increase.
  2. Blue Whale - Ideal for left-click mage focusing on health and defense.
  3. Wither Skeleton - Best for Necron Bossfight.
  4. Sheep Pet - Good for left-click mage for ability damage and mana.
  5. Golden Dragon - End-game pet for the highest overall damage.

3. Reforges and Gear

For Left-Click Mage:

  • Accessory Power: Simple, later can upgrade to Inspired.
  • Armor: Ancient
  • Weapons: Withered

For Edible Mace:

  • Best Reforge: Fabled for 20% more damage.

4. Pro Tips and Tricks

  • Swap to a weapon with higher Intelligence after shooting a slow projectile for amplified damage.
  • Mages are slower, so consider Black Cat Pet or Maxor's Armor for speed.

For Left-Click Mage:

  1. Livid Dagger - 100% Critical Chance but minimal damage.
  2. Shadow Fury and Giant's Sword - Great for optimized crit chance.
  3. Hyperion - Offers both room clearing and insane left-click damage.
  4. Valkyrie - Excellent for Necron Bossfight.

For Right-Click Mage:

  • High Catacombs level or Stone Sword Combat are often required. Early-game players may find Mage challenging due to these requirements.

Support Weapons

  • These are optional and can be useful at any stage.
  • Opt for armor sets that provide lots of mana or special Mage-boosting abilities.

7. Conclusion

Becoming an efficient Mage in Hypixel Skyblock takes some time, but with this ultimate guide, you're well on your way to mastering this versatile class. Remember to choose your pets, weapons, and gear carefully to optimize your Mage capabilities.
