Barry (Retired Mayor)

Barry the Wizard was a regular mayor candidate whose perks centred on Enchanting and Alchemy.¹ He no longer runs for election. He left the candidate pool in August 2022 and moved to the Wizard Tower, and since update 0.19 he lives in the Rift, where he is mayor of Barry HQ.¹²

His one famous win

Barry was the last regular candidate to win for the first time, in the election for Year 189.¹

• Popular streamers and YouTubers campaigned for him, and the other candidates' perks that year were unpopular.¹
• He began that election with a single perk. After the community attention, a Hypixel admin gave him all three mid-election, the first time a candidate's perks changed during a vote.¹
• Once elected he revealed three Secret Bonuses on top of his three perks.¹

Perk notes

• Astral Negotiator spoke of "Enchanting" in general, but it never applied to the Experimentation Table.¹
• Magic XP Boost was reworded in update 0.14 (after he had left the pool) from a percentage of extra XP to a flat +15 Alchemy and Enchanting Wisdom.¹
• He still turned up in Jerry's Perkpocalypse rotation in Years 233 and 257, though his hidden perks weren't shown and probably weren't active.³
