Best Level 130+ Myth Hats
Hats have strayed from their original, balanced state into a more offensive piece of gear. Still, a hyper-aggressive PvP meta and increasingly powerful enemies mean that gear from Darkmoor and Exalted Krokopatra is still worth having. Here's a look at the best hats for Myth wizards. If you're hoping for a more aggressive setup, consider items under the "For Offense" category.
For Balanced Stats:
(1) Helm of Unknown Tartarus
(2) Darkmoor Barbut of Delusion
(3) Helm of Desert Mirages
For Offense:
(1) Alphoi Commander Helm*
(2) Nostalgic Cabal Hood
(3) Monarch's Diadem
(4) Illumintated Zanadu Helm
(5) Fleet Kapudan Turban
Other:
(1) Haughty Alphoi Mantle
(2) Cyrus's Secret Skullcap
(3) Time Warden Kavuk of Reason
(4) Majoris Cowl of Insight
(5) Rogue's Puzzling Cap

(1)
Krokopatra Wonder Fez
Krokopatra's hat is still the best options for level 130+ wizards who want as balanced and multi-purpose of a setup as possible. Farming requires giving up the opportunity to get any other Darkmoor gear, but for those who despise the Graveyard, this is not just great alternative, it also may be a better hat for you anyway.
(2)
Kan Davasi Victor's Hood
This piece of gear, in my opinion, falls slightly behind Krokopatra's hat, but either is a solid choice. This Darkmoor staple is still one of the most well-rounded pieces of gear available and best overall options for your wizard. Although the Mythic Paradox Conical adds a lot of damage (and may be superior if you're looking for a more aggressive setup), the sacrifice of so much resistance could hardly be justified in a number of situations and the additional piercing on this item has become more important than ever with enemies having additional resistance and access to shields.
(3)
Mythic Paradox Conical
A well-balanced setup requires just that - balance. But sometimes the offensive capabilities of a hat are good enough that they warrant making an exception. Although this hat does not offer any resistance, its damage is 9-10% higher than the other top options. This hat can be farmed in a relatively easy dungeon that's currently a hot spot for farming. It's a great hat for hammers or anyone who doesn't mind losing some significant resistance for the extra damage.
(4)
Helm of Kan Davasi Law
So you're willing to do parts of Darkmoor, but maybe you don't want to farm the Graveyard. This could be the hat for you. If you're not into farming any of the major bosses for the top-tier gear, this is a good alternative.
Best Level 130+ Myth Robes
The recent shift to purely defensive stats on robes means that older robes are still in the spotlight, with a few notable exceptions making their way onto the list. Despite the potential for a balanced setup with defensive robes and offensive hats, the defensive robes are not only inferior in the offense department (obviously) but also often have worse defenses than the staple robes in so many setups. Here's a look at the best options for level 130 and up.
For Balanced Stats:
(1) Law of Kan Davasi Vestment
(2) Armor of Unknown Tartarus
(3) Winter Palace Full Dress Coat
(4) Champion's Armor of Courage
(5) Darkmoor Armor of Delusion
Other:
(1) Valiant Paladin's Armor
(2) Armor of the Light Brigade
(3) Turquoise Eagle's Raiment
(4) Aztecosaur War-Shell
(5) Bonesmasher's Rattled Robe
Click any boss name in the top items or item name for stats and additional information.
Select a Robe: Your stats automatically update in the calculator.
(1)
Quixotic Light Brigade Armor
Farming Corporal Tenni'syn can be a challenge, especially if you're just teaming up. That said, if you're willing to complete this fight (and save yourself from Darkmoor), you'll end up with what I think is the best robe available. It has the most health of any of the top four options, solid power pip chance, ties for the best resistance of the four, has the best critical and damage, and gives 2% shadow pip chance.
(2)
Bonesmasher Robe of Drams
This is a great choice if you aren't up for some of the tougher battles required to get Tenni'syn robe. Exalted Rattlebones isn't a particularly tough fight and it shouldn't be too hard to find people willing to run given that the challenge often provides worthwhile rewards. This robe just beats out Malistaire's in my opinion, but they're both great options.
(3)
Kan Davasi Victor's Gear
This is a really close call between Malistaire's robe and the Exalted Rattlebones robe. You could really go for either one. The Rattlebones robe is slightly better, though this could be a superior choice if you need other Darkmoor gear anyway that you might get from farming the Graveyard.
(4)
Winter Solstice Vesture
A very unusual entry on the list of best robes, the Winter Solstice Vesture is really quite an impressive robe for Myth, offering better damage than any of the other top robes (and and half of it is universal), good resistance, plus solid power pip chance and other stats. The only problem is that Wizard101 changed the make-up of this robe's stats starting at the level 110+ tier, meaning you'll need a wizard level 100-109 opening the Winterland Pack to get it!
Best Level 130+ Myth Boots
Boots have continued to offer fairly balanced stats across the board, and as such, Darkmoor gear has been pushed completely out of the top four items. Now, you can go super aggressive with boots while maintaining defenses and other stats. Here's a look at the best boot options for your wizard.
For Balanced Stats:
(1) Monarch's Footwear
(2) Cyrus's Scholarly Striders
(3) Ancient Purrzian Galesh
(4) Winter Solstice Snowboots
(5) Silent Knight's Snowboots
For Offense:
(1) Alphoi Commander Boots*
(2) Haughty Alphoi Boots
(3) Nostalgic Cabal
Stompers
(4) Allfather's Boots
(5) Dashing Outlaw's Treaders
Other:
(1) Dwarven Boots
(2) Boots of the Silent Knight
(3) Abyssal Warrior's Boots
(4) Wysteria Warrior's Sabatons
(5) Unicorn Knight Sabatons
Click any boss name in the top items or item name for stats and additional information.
Select Boots: Your stats automatically update in the calculator.
(1)
Mythic Paradox Boots
These incredible boots have resistance equal to Malistaire's boots, but much more damage and around 500 more health! It's amazing how far boots have come. The nice thing about these, outside of the fact that they drop at a fairly easy boss which everyone is teaming up for, is that you can craft an alternative. If you don't have much luck farming, you can craft the Alphoi Commander Boots with identical stats.
(2)
Illuminated Zanadu Boots
These boots are a really close second to the Mythic Paradox Boots. If you pick these up during your travels or want to try somewhere new to farm, these could be the boots for you.
(3)
Nimbari Justicar Greaves
These impressive boots offer almost double the resistance of others and about as much damage as any other option, but sacrifice power pip chance. If you're good on that, these could be the best boot option for your wizard.
(4)
Ebony Pandamonium Boots
The level 130+ version of these boots has great health and damage without sacrificing all of your power pip chance or resistance. There's also some critical included, making these a solid option particularly for offensive setups.
Best Level 130+ Myth Wands
The range of available wands has increased significantly with the introduction of new packs and bundles. Additionally, the stats that are valued on wands have changed, too. With critical and block decay, more balanced choices with critical and block that were once very powerful are now less desirable. Here are the best wand options for your wizard.
For Balanced Stats:
(1) Road Legend Skull
(2) Eye of the Soothsayer
(3) Poison Apple
(4) Majoris Fragment of Insight**
(5) Aquilan Secutor Lance
For Offense:
(1) Admiral's Boarding Hook
(2) Baba Yaga's Mace
(3) Allfather's Gungnir
(4) All Souls Cranium Wand
(5) Mythic Paradox Defenders***
**Titan Warrior Kernel of Logic and Borealis Artifact of Vision are close equivalents.
***Mythic Paradox Defenders and Alphoi Commander Glaive have identical stats.
Click any boss name in the top items or item name for stats and additional information.
Select a Wand:
Your stats automatically update in the calculator.
(1)
Baba Yaga's Focused Mace
This weapon has great damage in addition to critical and pip conversion, but also includes piercing. This makes it a fairly balanced but still aggressive wand choice that is great for Myth wizards.
(2)
Ebony Pandamonium Jian
Either of the other two Jian weapons would be great choices for Myth. They may even be preferable if you want to run off-school wand hits or want the universal damage for attacks from another school. The damage on these weapons is what makes them worth having.
(3)
Nimbari Justicar Scimitar
The Nimbari Hoard Pack has a lot to offer for Myth, and this wand is just one more item. Although not universal, the and critical on this wand closely mirror that of the Ebony Pandamonium Jian. This wand also includes pip conversion.
(4)
Road Legend Skull
This wand offers only decent damage, but knocks it out of the park on universal critical and block. On top of that, you get piercing! It's a good choice for a Myth wizard, specifically if you're looking for a more balanced approach.
Best Level 130+ Myth Athames
Not very many athames have become available in recent updates that are particularly good, but priorities with some stats have shifted. It's important for a good athame to have solid damage and enough power pip chance to keep your wizard getting power pips every round. More recent athames sacrifice both balanced stats and damage overall, but could be a good option if you're looking for a little more block in your setup.
Click any boss name in the top items or item name for stats and additional information.
Select an Athame: Your stats automatically update in the calculator.
(1)
Dirk of Dimwood Vale
The Darkmoor and Morganthe athames are still the best ones available in the game, and by quite a stretch compared to any newer athame. Either one works, but I find Yevgeny's to come out ahead of Morganthe's because its universal damage allows for more flexibility with types of attacks and the rests of its stats are either superior or comparable to Morganthe's athame.
(2)
Morganthe's Bite
If you don't pick up your athame from Darkmoor, Morganthe is a popular farming spot where you should absolutely be able to successfully team up and complete the fight in a reasonable about of time. Plus, Morganthe is a great place to pick up a few other accessories, too.
(3)
Blade of the Felled Titan
Venture into Tartarus for this athame! Cronus is kind of a fun side boss in the dungeon that doesn't require completing any other fights to battle. The Blade of the Felled Titan is an item that could be useful for multiple wizards and is available several levels before either the Darkmoor or Morganthe athame.
(4)
Aphrodite's Barb of Vexing
Moving up on the list, this athame offers more of a stat which is in high demand in most builds today - damage. Unlike newer athames, Aphrodite's still offers power pip chance plus higher damage.
Best Level 130+ Myth Amulets
Amulets have pretty much stayed exalted the same over the past couple of years. All of the recent amulets are mastery amulets, which means they're more specialized and don't offer as good of stats. While Amulets provided cards for quite a long time, the introduction of stats onto these gear pieces means you'll want to pick one that can help you stay competitive.
For Resistance:
(1) Yolok's Ampul of Observation
(2) Warlord Minak's Medallion
(3) Arcanum Exile Idea Bauble
(4) Amulet of the Arcanum Exile
(5) Auroracle's Torc of Intent
Select an Amulet: Your stats automatically update in the calculator.
(1)
Relic of the Shadow Palace
Morganthe is a great place to farm for accessories, and at level 130, it shouldn't be too difficult of a battle. The stats are competitive with or superior to the Amulet of Divine Influence and the school blade cards provided are something you can actually use.
(2)
Amulet of Divine Influence
If you're in Tartarus and farming for other gear, keep an eye out for the Amulet of Divine Influence. It's a worthy substitute for Morganthe's amulet and remains to be a pretty rare item.
(3)
Universal Memento
Note that this amulet only drops from Shane von Shane in the Upper Halls, so here's your chance to avoid farming the Graveyard! This amulet also has more piercing that any of the others, so if that's what you're after, this might be the choice for you.
(4)
Kan Davasi Medallion
This amulet drops from a number of Darkmoor bosses, meaning you have a chance to get it in just about any dungeon that you farm. If you haven't picked up any of the other top amulets and you have this one from your travels through Darkmoor, it's still a good choice.
Best Level 130+ Myth Rings
Rings, like other accessories, haven't changed much. Newer rings offer some additional critical and damage options that are nice for aggressive setups, but lack power pip chance and even have less damage that many previous rings. In my book, giving up that sort of consistency for chance isn't a good choice, but the aggressive options and there nonetheless. Here's a look at the best rings for your wizard.
For Balanced Stats:
(1) Band of Exultance
(2) Sir Corwin’s Ring
(3) Red Razor’s Signet of Lore
(4) Royal Guard’s Signet
(5) Darkside’s Nightmare Band
For Offense:
(1) Drake Ancestral Signet
(2) Mythic Paradox Ring*
(3) Illuminated Zanadu Band
(4) Nostalgic Cabal Ring
(5) Tetrus Ringlet of Rumination
Click any boss name in the top items or item name for stats and additional information.
Select a Ring: Your stats automatically update in the calculator.
(1)
Law of Kan Davasi Band
This level 100+ ring remains to be the reigning champion of rings, even 30 levels later. While some newer rings offer critical, this one offers the best damage available for Myth wizards, solid stats overall, and good power pip chance. It can be a tougher place to farm than some of the other spots, but it could mean getting the best ring available for your wizard.
(2)
Signet of the Lizard Tyrant
For level 86, this ring has fantastic stats and offers an additional jewel slot compared to the Alpha and Omega ring. Plus, it's dropped a lot more places, meaning you can change up your farming location if you get bored.
(3)
Signet of the Shadow Queen
Morganthe is the accessory hot-spot, and this is one more thing you can cross off your list from a battle that's very manageable, even using Team Up! Despite a few points of damage sacrificed, its otherwise superior stats and additional jewel slot make it a great ring option.
(4)
Alpha and Omega Ring
You should still be able to find people farming for this ring. It's one of the earliest available on the list, requiring only level 90 and remaining to be a solid choice up through level 130. Like the number one choice from Aphrodite, this ring's damage is universal, meaning it could work well for a setup with a mastery amulet.
Best Level 130+ Myth Decks
Make no mistake, the single best thing you can get from a deck is the bonus pip that so many of the top-notch decks offer. Don't ever sacrifice that for a tiny increase in another stat. Every deck on this list (save for the damage deck) is a good option for your wizard, with minimal differences in stats. There is some difference in card capacity, but school-specific decks that can hold more cards are generally favored over universal decks.
For Balanced Stats:
(1) Divine Paradox Deck
(2) Hopeful Zanadu Deck
(3) Luphilim's Eternal Deck
(4) Chief Advisor's Pack of Lies**
For Damage:
(1) Barbed Case of Stratagem
**Ancient Deck of Horizon Hold and Parcel of the Arcanum Exile are equivalent substitutes for this item.
Click any boss name in the top items or item name for stats and additional information.
Select a Deck: Your stats automatically update in the calculator.
(1)
Mythic Paradox Deck
The Rat and Scorpion battle is a lot of fun and there are likely plenty of people still farming, so feel free to jump in on that and try for the best deck available for Myth wizards! Alternatively, you could snag it from the Titan's Trident Chest after the big battle.
(2)
Illuminated Zanadu Deck
If you're looking to change up your farming or avoid those Husk bosses, Admiral Dynt and some of the other bosses that drop this very close second deck are quite a bit easier and you'll lose almost nothing in terms of stats.
(3)
Luphilim's Legend Cards
If you still have your deck from Omen, there's really no need to farm one of the newer ones for the tiniest bit of extra health. If you don't and you have other items you're hoping to win from Omen, he might be the spot to farm!
(4)
Rasputin's Hypnotic Hand
The nice thing about this set of three decks is that it's the only one in the top four to offer you a choice of jewel slots. A lot of people prefer the triangle slot on a deck, so it has been used on the newer decks and is what's shown where there are options. Rasputin can be a tougher battle on this list (even compared to both him and the Scorpion in Empyrea) but you've got a chance to pick up all kinds of gear!
Best Level 130+ Myth Mounts
Mounts are a relatively new introduction to the world of best gear, as they haven't always given stats. Now, you can get at least a little bonus from your ride. Here are the best stat-boosting mounts available for your wizard.
**Vulpine Avenger is an equivalent substitute for this item.
***Waddling Witch Hunt is an equivalent substitute for this item.
Click any boss name in the top items or item name for stats and additional information.
Select a Mount: Your stats automatically update in the calculator.
(1)
Myth Ghulture
Wizards can improve on many of the other 2% damage mounts with this 3% damage Ghulture from the same pack!
(2)
Balance Ghulture
This Ghulture gives 2% universal damage (and can be swapped out for several equivalent mounts including the Battle Havox and Battle Narwhal) and is a close second mount option.
(3)
Clockwork Courser
If you have either the Cuckoo Clock Gauntlet or the Avalon Outlaw's Bundle, you're in good shape for your 2% universal piercing bonus!
(4)
Crystal Unicorn
It never hurts to be a little more accurate. If you don't have any of the other mounts or could use a little bonus to push you up to 100% accuracy, this could be the mount option for you.
