Dungeon Set 1 "Magister's Regalia" (Mage)
Vanilla WoW Classic 1.12 · x5 realm · wowx5.ruMagister's Regalia is the Dungeon Set 1, also known as Tier 0, for the Mage. The full set has 8 cloth pieces that drop from level 55-60 five-man dungeons. It is the first serious set before raiding: it fills your gear slots cheaply and acts as a springboard toward the Tier 1 raid sets. For a general farming overview see the dungeon grinding guide.
What Tier 0 is
Dungeon Set 1 exists so that mages can quickly gear up in solid blue armor right at level 60 without entering a raid. The set focuses on intellect and mana, so it suits the class main spec. Once collected, it unlocks the upgrade quest chain to Tier 0.5 and lets you clear the first raids confidently.
The \"Magister's Regalia\" pieces
The set has 8 slots. Below are the typical sources; the exact boss for each item is easy to check with the Atlas addon.
| Slot | Main source |
|---|---|
| Head | Stratholme |
| Shoulders | Lower Blackrock Spire (LBRS) |
| Chest | Stratholme |
| Wrists | Blackrock Depths (BRD) |
| Hands | Dire Maul |
| Waist | Blackrock Depths (BRD) |
| Legs | Scholomance |
| Feet | Scholomance |
Where to farm
Tier 0 items drop from bosses in the level 55-60 dungeons. The main pool:
- Scholomance — legs and feet;
- Stratholme — head and chest;
- Blackrock Depths — wrists and waist;
- Lower Blackrock Spire — shoulders;
- Dire Maul — hands.
Drops are not guaranteed, so most players run the relevant dungeons several times. The keys and attunements for these dungeons are covered in the dungeon keys guide.
Set bonuses
Dungeon Set 1 has set bonuses that unlock at 3, 5 and 8 equipped pieces. For the Mage they reinforce intellect and mana — in other words they follow the class main role. To check the full bonuses in game, hover over any set piece and read the green lines at the bottom of the tooltip.
x5 tip: on an accelerated server it pays to farm Tier 0 in bulk — form a group of 5 and run Stratholme and Scholomance back to back. In one evening you can realistically close 3-4 slots. Do not vendor spare pieces: they are needed for the Tier 0.5 upgrade quest.
Is it worth it
Yes — Tier 0 is your entry base for raiding. It is weaker than Tier 1 from Molten Core, but you obtain it without a raid and build up combat stats early. The optimal path: collect the key Tier 0 slots -> grab the best non-set items from the Mage BiS guide -> head into your first raid for Tier 1. Some Tier 0 pieces stay relevant until you get raid armor.
