[[File:3rd age mage set equipped.png|right|150px|A player wearing Third-age mage armour]]
'''Third-age mage armour''' is a set of [[Third-age armour]] for [[Combat classes#Mage|Mages]], currently the most powerful non-degradable, non-dungeoneering, mage armour. To wear this armour the player needs at least 30 [[Defence]] and 65 [[Magic]]. To obtain this rare armour the player can complete a Hard [[Treasure trail]] for a chance at receiving parts of it, trade with another player, or buy it in the [[Grand Exchange]].

Originally, the bonuses of this armour were equivalent to the [[Infinity robes]] obtained in the [[Mage Training Arena]] but were later altered to make this armour more of a useful item rather than just a collector's item. Despite this, the robes are so expensive they are rarely used in combat and players who own them do so mostly as a show of wealth.

The robe top and bottom's bonuses are better than Infinity, with an extra +11 magic attack and defence, but worse than [[Barrows equipment#Ahrim the Blighted (Magic)|Ahrim the Blighted's set of barrows equipment]] which gives +7 more magic attack and defence bonus, along with bonuses in all other areas, for a total extra bonus much higher than the third-age mage armour. However, the third-age amulet currently holds the title for highest magic attack bonus for the necklace slot at +15, although, the Arcane stream necklace has a magic attack bonus of 14 and adds a 15% magic damage boost. The third-age mage hat also currently holds the second title for the highest magic attack bonus for the helmet slot in the game, at +8, surpassed only by the Virtus Mask, at +9, obtained from Nex in the Ancient Prison. Ahrim's hood and the Farseer helm have only +6, while the [[Healer hat]] reward from Barbarian Assault gives a +7 bonus.

Since these robes are extremely valuable, most choose to hold onto to them as a sign of wealth, prestige, and accomplishment.

It was long thought that the chance of obtaining a piece of third-age armour was about 1 in 10,000 (according to [[Paul Gower]]); it was revealed that the odds are between 1/100,000 and 1/1,000,000.{{CiteForum|author=Mod Maylea|url=http://www.webcitation.org/5t5rruBYB|title=Treasure Trails Q&A Answers!|forum= News & Announcements|postdate=28th of September 2010|date=03:15, July 3, 2011 (UTC)}}

==Trivia==
* The third-age robe top on male characters had a glitch where every action the player does the bottom part of the robe top stayed static in one place. This has been fixed by Jagex with the update that improved some weapons' animations.
* The third-age robe top has a striking resemblance to a lab coat.
* The third-age robe top is one of only a few items that extend past a characters body, most armours tightly fit their body.
