|Self buff. On death and with Base EXP at 99-99.9%, level 5 Steel Body will trigger while also fully restoring HP and SP. Think of it as an extra life. Succeeding deaths will not trigger the skill. Relogging restores the extra life. At max level 275, it prevents AP loss and will always trigger on death. If you're soloing and you still don't want to go back to your save point, bring a couple of extra Fly Wings and teleport around until you find a safe area. Relog to get the extra life back.

The Super Novice can take one of two routes - Magic or Physical. The Mage Hyper Novice will go through many difficult trials along the way, but by transcending above the challenges, learning from other classes, and Breaking Rules along the way, they acquired a newfound power by improving existing skills and by combining two or more skills to form even more potent skills. ''I still wonder what rules are they breaking... The rules of physics, the rule of law... or the rule of er... or the rule of the letter s at the end of the plural form of rule, which is rules, but it can also be a verb attached to a singular nou- (perfectly cut nonsense blabbering).''
'''(Description WIP)''' - The Super Novice can take one of two routes - Mage or Physical. The Mage Hyper Novice will go through many difficult trials along the way, but by transcending above the challenges, learning from other classes and Breaking the Rules along the way, they triumph, going from Super to Hyper, and I got writer's block. I still wonder what rules are they breaking... The rules of physics, the rule of law... or the rule of er... I don't know.

|After getting 110 SPL and CON, adjust STA, WIS, or CRT.  Thanks to a buff making Heal spammable, investing into CRT instead of STA or WIS is now viable. 72 CRT almost doubles healing (e.g. 5500 to 9750), and with enough ACD and ASPD, one can spam heal to save a lot of potions and zeny. However, a decent amount of ACD reduction (40%+) and ASPD (165+) are needed for it to be effective.

|Here's my build. It takes advantage of Dim Glacier's Hell's Jack enchant, focusing on Jack Frost Nova and Hell's Drive. It also works great with the TDRC + Time Gap combo. There are two variations: a more powerful glass cannon build, and a slightly less powerful but much beefier variant. More comments below the screenshots.
|Here's my specialty - Jack Frost Nova. It takes advantage of Dim Glacier's Hell's Jack enchant, focusing on Jack Frost Nova and Hell's Drive. It also works great with the TDRC + Time Gap combo. There are two variations: a more powerful glass cannon build, and a slightly less powerful but much beefier variant. Jack Frost Nova by itself is already quite strong, but other skills can be cast while it is on a 3-second cooldown. One must know how to "piano" and properly rotate multiple skills for maximum damage.

[[File:HN Mage 3.png|left|900x900px|thumb|The first build has less damage (by appx. 10-15%) but has far greater survival thanks to Overcoming Crisis (OC). Even at just level 2 Overcoming Crisis, it still provides a decent boost to HP (example: from 85k to 125k), but more importantly, access to a panic / oh $$$$ button in case of emergency, as long as there is 50 AP and not on a 60-second cooldown.

However, there are compromises resulting in around 10-15% less damage. Self Study Sorcery (SSS) is down to level 5. The main skills Hell's Drive (HD) and Jack Frost Nova (JFN) are maxed, Jupitel Thunderstorm (JTS) is down to level 9, and Ground Gravitation (GG) is down to level 7. JTS has max hits and AoE at level 9, while GG has max AoE at level 7.

As a result, soloing Depth 2 is still possible, but significantly more care must be taken, especially against really hard-hitting Mosquitoes and Salamanders. The panic button is gone. Be careful!]]

|Requires Level 7 Napalm Beat and Level 5 Soul Strike. While it's optional, it is still a very handy skill and can be a life-saver in a pinch. Aside from blocking melee physical attacks, it can also prevent armor from getting broken from melee Armor Break attacks and shadow equipment from getting stripped. It can also block attacks reflected by Max Pain at melee range too!
|The Mage Tree's AP skill greatly increases the damage of all skills for 5 minutes. However, because it uses up '''A LOT''' of skill points, it is up to you to decide whether to invest in this and specialize in 1-2 skills or ignore it and max 3-4 skills for more variety at the cost of reduced damage.

|Prerequisite for Vulture's Eye. Highly recommended to max to more easily achieve 100% Variable Cast Time reduction. When using the Yordos Judge / Yortus Conjurator combo, leave it at level 3.
|Overcoming Crisis is a super-duper skill that temporarily increases Max HP, PATK and SMATK, and fully restores HP. It costs a mere 50 AP to cast and has a 60-second cooldown. A fantastic panic button to prevent a terrible fate. Due to skill point constraints, mage builds will be forced to compromise and make decisions on what skills to get.

|Napalm Vulcan Strike is a build that revolves around spamming Napalm Vulcan Strike. The floor is made of floor. It becomes a "firehose" of souls when using the {{#item:400545}} + {{#item:550133}} combo, if both are Grade A. It is powerful, but requires high ACD reduction and high ASPD for maximum power. At least 40% ACD reduction and 180+ ASPD are recommended. Unlike the Jack Frost Nova build above, piano skills and proper skill rotation aren't needed. Just set up a smartkey/smartcast [[Patcher#Turbo_Setup|Turbo]], open up with another skill like Ground Gravitation or Jack Frost Nova to tenderize them a bit, aim, and start spraying them with angry thoughts and/or angry souls.

When both are refined to +9, they grant numerous bonuses that improve quality of life in exchange for decreased power, by around 5-10% compared to {{#item:24753}} and {{#item:24754}} above. Gain increased HP, SP, stats, ASPD, and SP recovery while decreasing VCT and SP consumption. This more basic combo actually makes {{#skill:5460}} builds stronger due to the ASPD increase compared to {{#item:24753}} and {{#item:24754}}. Meanwhile, {{#skill:5456}} or {{#skill:5457}} builds will feel "lighter", because spamming multiple spells becomes faster and easier with increased ASPD, which also makes responding to whatever comes your way even better. It also works very well with the {{#item:300522}}/{{#item:300529}} combo, providing a lot of VCT reduction so you won't have to deal with the obscene SP costs due to high DEX! Now that's a lotta <s>damage</s> quality of life improvements! Enchant with MATK against monster size or ASPD.

*Focus more on hit-and-run tactics by leveling up quick-cast skills like Fire Ball, Fire Wall and Soul Strike.
*Super Novice has absolutely atrocious HP and SP pools until level 99. Without the help of equipment and costumes like {{#item:20307}}, your HP and SP will be less than 1000 and 300 respectively. Because of this, your primary survival stat is AGI, not VIT. All the VIT and DEF in the world won't do much if you have a mere ~1000 HP. It's better to evade attacks instead of taking a hit with such low HP.
*Safety Wall will be your wall of safety in dangerous situations but it will cost a lot of skill points.

When soloing, I get writer's block!
*This is the deadly part, and I think a lot of people who try the class will give up here. The struggle IS REAL especially if Hyper Novice is the first or one of the first characters you make. Correct me if I'm wrong though!
 
*Soloing isn't too difficult from 100-150, then the difficulty ramps up quickly at 150 onwards due to the lack of strong 3rd job skills. Level 5 {{#skill:2449}} will make life a lot easier, but it needs a +7 {{#item:550081}}, and it can be obtained here: [[Ancient Hero / Patent / Hero-LT Weapons]]. Once you break through this challenging phase, especially if you don't have {{#item:550081}}, you'll feel a MASSIVE surge of power once you become a Hyper Novice and reach Job Level 7 and above.
In a party setting, You'll be the secondary support, providing crowd control and extra buffs and heals. Quagmire, Storm Gust and Sightrasher will be your main crowd control skills. Once you see the tank and its lures approaching, cast Quagmire on the mobs to slow them down in order for the DPSes more easily dispose of them. Also watch out if the tank lured too many or if there are monsters coming from the side and rear - use Sightrasher to push them away or Storm Gust to freeze them in place. From time to time, you may also buff your teammates, provide additional heals with your cute Heals.
*As you gain levels, allocate more points to DEX in order to reduce VCT (Variable Cast Time) as much as possible, with INT not far behind. It is highly recommended to do the episode quests listed above, as they'll give you access to equipment sets that can reduce your VCT by up to 10% (Grace Set) and FCT (Fixed Cast Time) by 0.5 seconds, which is very helpful considering the long 1.5-second FCT of AoE skills like {{#skill:89}} and {{#skill:85}}, and the even more abhorrent VCT of some skills reaching up to freaking 6.3 seconds! At least it isn't as bad as [[Sarah and Fenrir|Fenrir]], who can take '''a full minute''' to cast {{#skill:2454}}.
*AGI is still your primary survival stat, but some VIT can now help with a much better HP pool. Most monsters up to level 200 can have up to around ~550 Hit at most. Try to have 550 Flee or more if possible. Type @mi monstername for more info on a particular monster.
**If Hit - Flee = 100 or more, you'll ALWAYS be hit.
**But even if you think having tons of FLEE is going to work, it isn't, because there is a '''FLEE PENALTY'''. If at 3 monsters are attacking you, there's a 10% penalty, so 500 Flee becomes 450. 4 monsters - 20% penalty, until the maximum 100% penalty at 12 or more monsters.

Magic Hyper Novices are very reliant on skill and sometimes buff rotation for maximum damage and effectiveness. All skills have completely different elements (duh Raku), ACD, CD, VCT, and FCT, making proper rotation quite tricky, especially in fast-moving situations like farming in Depth1 and Depth2. Below are some suggested skill and buffing rotations.

This is the best rotation I found so far when testing DPS in dummies. Slashed skills mean they can be added if you have even more ACD and ASPD. When in actual combat, adjust accordingly.<br>
Start with an opener to soften up the mobs a bit, followed by spamming the skill until the opener's duration ends. Spray enemies with a barrage of angry thoughts. If {{#item:400545}} + {{#item:550133}} are equipped, add angry souls to the mix. When in actual combat, adjust accordingly.<br>

[[File:Hybrid HN in Alice Hard 2nd attempt.jpg|thumb|A really brave and foolish Hyper Novice attempts Alice Hard. This build is so meme omg ahahahahahahaha!]]
'''(Description WIP)''' - The late-game Hybrid build combines the best of both worlds. While it doesn't have access to AP skills, it more than makes up in versatility, especially in certain places where both physical and magical attacks are required. This build is so meme omg...
[[File:Hybrid HN in Alice Hard equips.jpg|thumb|Equipment swapping (ALT+D) made this possible. Notice the Physical equipment is significantly weaker compared to the Magical one. Adjusting stats somewhat compensates for this. The stats not shown in the screenshot are: 112 STR, 102 AGI, 100 VIT, 100 INT, 100 DEX, 100 LUK, 110 POW, 0 STA WIS SPL, 110 CON, 72 CRT. Pet used is Succubus for HP leech. There is 0 SPL because the magic equipment is way more than enough to clear the Spades.]]

While it doesn't have access to AP skills, it more than makes up in versatility, especially in certain places where both physical and magical attacks are required. In Alice Hard, it is good for tentacle farming, but the damage isn't enough yet for the MVPs. But hey, solo tentacle farming is now possible at least! This build is so meme omg...
