RuneScape's latest addition, necromancy, has taken the gaming world by storm, offering an accessible yet powerful combat experience. In this concise guide, we'll delve into the key highlights of necromancy and its impact on the game.

Why Choose Necromancy?

Necromancy boasts a lower skill floor, making it a user-friendly choice for players of all levels. Say goodbye to hours of grappling with clunky combat systems only to relearn them after periods of inactivity. Necromancy streamlines the experience, allowing you to focus on the thrill of battle.

What truly sets necromancy apart is the sheer satisfaction it brings to combat. It offers smoother animations, more distinguishable abilities, and a raised hit cap that delivers those coveted high numbers. These high numbers translate into increased neuron activation, a feature other combat styles are keen to incorporate in the future.

Necromancy's Versatility

Necromancy's strength lies in its ability to combine the best elements of other combat styles. For melee enthusiasts, it offers the "spectral Scythe" ability, upgradable to mimic cleave, hurricane, and meteorite strike. Ranged users enjoy a special attack that rivals the power of the crossbow's, without the need for additional gear. Magic enthusiasts, on the other hand, find a superior version of the "Greater chain" ability in necromancy.

PvM and Slayer Tasks

Necromancy shines in Player vs. Monster (PvM) and Slayer tasks. While it may not always outperform top-tier magic users, it gets remarkably close, particularly for Slayer tasks. With optimized action bars, it could potentially surpass other styles. Additionally, necromancy excels in AFK and low to mid-level boss content due to its substantial healing capabilities.

Economic Impact

Necromancy's introduction had a notable impact on the RuneScape economy. Certain items experienced a surge in demand due to their role in leveling up the skill or upgrading gear. However, this surge was temporary, and prices are expected to stabilize as supply adapts to meet demand.

High-level weapons, on the other hand, have seen significant price drops as players liquidated their gear to invest in necromancy. As more players realize the skill's effectiveness across various content, they are reluctant to return to their previous combat styles.

What Lies Ahead

Necromancy's accessibility sets a precedent for what combat styles should be in RuneScape. While its impact on the game and the economy is undeniable, there is still much more to be added and balanced in the future. For now, enjoy the skill for what it is - an exciting addition to RuneScape.
