Came here to mention the Mage Strike as was confused why this wasn't popping. You can unlock the card through the White Council storyline.

Bugged I got this without any of them equipped but I had the full skeleton suit in a previous session without that one popping together with some mage gear.

I was expecting a lot of Mage items like set equipment in Diablo games but really, it's just Mage Gloves and Mage's Mask. I don't think Mage's Scorn will work for it but I haven't tried it myself.

ATCS confirms Mage's Scorn doesn't work the achievements, thanks

You unlock Mages Gloves and Mages Mask from completing the Mage encounter.

I can confirm the Mage's Scorn doesn't work for this achievement. Tried 3 times and no pops!

Is there a good way to make those cards appear in a particular game other than just making sure they're the only helm and gloves in the deck?

you can try it on the Queen of Skulls. The game tries to tease you to buy items to get curses, so you'll have lots of shops and really cheap items. It's how I get a lot of my item based achievements (really helped for the 300 Ore Achievement), bonus points if you can remove Haunted Curse via some encounters like the Soul Gem. Get a surplus of food and you can keep stepping back and forth between shop encounters to refresh item lists.

Since the title update the Mage's Strike artefact is also needed. You can unlock the card through the White Council story line.

If like me you started this game before Title Update 2 that was released February 2016. You may have already completed the Mage encounter as described in MemoriesOfFinal's solution and subsequently unlocked the Mage's Gloves and Mask. You may notice when you look through your equipment cards after Title Update 2 these cards are now missing.

This is because a new set of encounter cards were introduced in Title Update 2 called 'The White Council'. There are 5 encounter cards for the White Council and upon completion of the 5th you unlock the Mage Gloves and Mask as described on the wiki page here

http://handoffate.gamepedia.com/The_White_Council_5

In conclusion you now need to complete all 5 White Council encounters to unlock the Mage equipment required to unlock the equipment required for this achievement instead of the one encounter prior to Title Update 2.

(Collectible)

Collect and unlock all encounters and equipment related to the Mage items (see spoiler below for details)

This set is only 2 items. They are unlocked after beating the mage encounter for the first time.

Once you have all the items unlocked, you'll have to equip all of them at once. This (as all other equipment trophies) can best be done in the jack of skulls trail. Make sure you edit your deck before you start. Fill it with boosting cards and make sure you have all pieces in your equipment. Now add some luck and you will have equipped all pieces then the trophy will pop.

We play in adventure mode until we unlock the map of magicians. After defeating them, the Helmet and Gloves of magicians open. We put them on together and the trophy is yours.

To get the achievement you need to equip the “mage’s helmet”, “mage’s gloves” and the “mage’s strike” artifact. The student does not fail at difficulty!
