I'm Now 100% PREPARED FOR NECRO! - My Levelling Plan 👀 [Runescape 3]

[@OEx25]

Big respect for you being so detailed in your planning while racing. Putting the community first 👏🏼 Good luck with the race!

[@MaikeruRS]

Thanks! :D Just here to have a good time and share whatever I know/discover along the way, hope you enjoy the new skill too! 1 week away now, super exciting

[@Ryan-kt5me]

This man is COMMITTED and im here for it. rooting for you

[@MaikeruRS]

❤🙏

[@BigTownHashBrown]

thanks for the vid maikeru. your really pumping me up for necromancy. im in australia so its always hard to catch your streams. (might catch the end of some or i watch reruns). but i will absolutely be watching you smash through this skill as im sure you will be extending your hours again. was so enjoyable watching you do archeology and you taught me as i leveled too. so i look forward to you showing me the ways of necromancy! keep up the great work champ

[@bjornvandenberghe5818]

The hybrid gear makes alot of sense man, can't believe i never thought about that.

[@MaikeruRS]

Happy to help :D

[@TheDarthDarth3]

This is the first skill I’ve been truly excited for in quite a while 🙂

[@MaikeruRS]

Hope it lives up to the hype, but im sure it will

[@lnspector]

Great video as always! I didn't watch your streams back when Arch was released because I didn't want spoilers, but that was a big mistake since it put me at a big disadvantage not listening to your advice / plans. Now you can be sure I'll be there when you first stream your Necro race and hopefully help me on my own!

[@MaikeruRS]

Understandable - spoilers can be annoying sometimes for sure! Hopefully the plans/info has helped you in your own gains and i wish you the best :D Will hopefully see you after release sometime in stream then 👍

[@i7ven]

Wondering if archeology is linked. Some relics sound relatable or don't have functions in the game 'yet'.

[@Achievius]

I am fully rooting for you man, I want to see you at #1!

[@rp19888]

Can you get normal zuk cape stone thing before necromancy release and use it to make it when you get necro kiln cape?

[@THExJMC]

Yes. The stone is not specific to any combat style used so just like you can use mage for melee and range upgrades you can also use it for necro (and do it preemptively). I just got mine today.

[@sky4946]

Your guide has helped me so much. Thank you!

[@robinallpets]

Can you ask the mods to make the 99 Cape sellers and Max be training necromancy when the patch goes live? That would be awesome

[@leonaustin123]

Max will probably only be seen at rituals so he's not "stealing kills" from people at random locations. The cape seller will probably be Death or Malignius Mortifer or some other Necromancer NPC that isn't technically evil. So death won't wear the cape if he's the seller, but anyone else hopefully will be wearing it already.

[@StyIoire]

3:42 I believe PVME actually listed that Necromancy won't interact with Impatient, so losing that literally loses you nothing Edit: might just be regarding the attacks the constantly throw out. "The necro auto/basic has been confirmed to not function as a "basic ability" for cases of impatient and fury of the small" (PVME, #Necromancy-Info)

[@MaikeruRS]

I believed it worked? It's just very weak iirc. Maybe I'm wrong though

[@JorrickL]

Isn't that only the case for basic (auto) attacks? We'll still have access to a few basic abilities

[@StyIoire]

@@MaikeruRS maybe that's it then, I just saw they made a note on it that it wouldn't be as important as we're used to

[@StyIoire]

Maybe this question has already been answered and I missed it somewhere, but where do you need to go to start Necromancy? Would love to log out nearby the entrance. Is it Death's Office?

[@JorrickL]

I believe it's the entrance to Death's office and War's Retreat, north of Draynor

[@DarthChosen]

they said on stream that the rune pouch isnt going to have the new runes added to it, unless theyre changing their mind.

[@MaikeruRS]

Well it's moreso if they release a new thing to upgrade a pouch - maybe made from threads from the new RC or something. If that happens, then you would have a pouch

[@DarthChosen]

@@MaikeruRS understood

[@nickwoollon9855]

@@MaikeruRS Yeah but they've included all the other upgradeable equipment. The spider silk, mystic and subj armour is not necromancy related, but is upgradeable into necromancy gear. If the pouches were upgradeable to be useful for Necromancy, they'd include them in the list

[@The0ldeKnight]

​@@MaikeruRShey, what do you mean by new RC?

[@kevintjuhh070]

Hey! IDK if you have thought about this or other people, but you might want to make sure your rested XP of Fort Forinthry is also at maximum and be ready to claim the bonus xp to put on Necromancy!

[@MaikeruRS]

That cannot be claimed into Necro, its part of the XP embargo for the first 6months. Good idea though.

[@kevintjuhh070]

@@MaikeruRS ah shit, alright! Thanks for letting me know aswell.

[@wackojacko4679]

just a thought, you could prefer the undead cluster task and try to force it for most monsters you will be killing for the slayer helm buff too

[@jasperlarvitar]

i dont think we know for a fact yet that the full slayer helm bonus will extend to Necromancy it is a very likely assumption and still a good suggestion, but the chance exists we'll need to add an extra new item to it for us to get a necromancy bonus.

[@wackojacko4679]

@@jasperlarvitar that is very true and I completely forgot the components of the helm add the bonuses to the specific styles.... probably means what you said, we will need to add another component. still something to keep an eye out for, that boost would be lovely to get through more kills

[@TheSubbyGod]

When they mentioned ashes, I thought they were talking about the ones you scatter for prayer xp. Maybe I misunderstood.

So glad you made this video! Thank you :)

[@MaikeruRS]

Anytime! Hope it helped :D

[@CommanderWaterSoul]

Not that it has any relevance to the race, but has there been any confirmation if Necromancy will be added within Daemonheim?

[@MaikeruRS]

I believe it won't be, i think they mentioned it on a Q&A stream and said it will just remain the normal styles for dung sadly

[@CommanderWaterSoul]

Ah that is disappointing lol. I made a HCIM with the intention of being primarily Necro-focused, but if it won’t be included in Dung, I’ll have to figure out another method to train it.

[@MaikeruRS]

Elite dungeons/beach i guess

[@terrafirma8833]

Gl on the race Maikeru. One question though, what's the item between the mask of the abyss and ring of shadows?

[@Hunter-ew2ve]

That's the Mask of Mourning, basically the same as the Mask of the Abyss, but for killing banshees. (i.e. double drops every 10 kills, ability to get assigned banshees as a slayer task daily, more slayer xp, etc.)

[@killler240]

Time to copy this! 😂 Hopefully it works out 🙏🏾

[@MaikeruRS]

🙏

[@lukapreradovic3365]

only problem I have with it is that I don't feel like bossing (iron btw) because I am at a stage where I would go for t90s but since necro gives t90s and t95s might actually not be that bad to get gear wise (since necro only), so I am just skilling and waiting.

I notice all the monsters you're killing are undead. Dunno if i missed it but has it been said anywhere that the creatures you need to be killing with necromancy need to be undead, is there a list of such creatures we should follow?

[@nwind9594]

He's killing undead so he can get the bonuses from salve amulet (e) early game along with ghost hunter to speed up early leveling

[@MaikeruRS]

Yeah, what nwind said. Ghost hunter 2set its 6% damage & salve ammy is 20% damage and accuracy against undead. I spoke briefly about it when i mentioned my gear when swapping to the spreadsheet 👍 So thats 26% damage and 20% accuracy over other monsters, a huge buff that you'll want early game especially

[@robingielis2575]

is it possible to use combat dummies with necromancy?

[@xjayyyy]

Didn't they mention Daily Challenges wont apply with Necro on the newspost last Thursday?

[@MaikeruRS]

existing combat daily challenge lamps will not. But there will be a new unique challenge for necro most likely something like "do a ritual or kill X" so its more than just a combat daily

[@xjayyyy]

@@MaikeruRS So in theory, if maxed, could you get 3 daily Necro challenges, and re-roll them at the end of the day (after levelling up some more) to get a challenge which is of a higher base level?

[@winterturtle1596]

You can’t put normal banshees in a POSD they just turn into regular ghosts

[@MaikeruRS]

You can, any "ghost" turns into a normal ghost, but not banshees specifically. For example, the stronghold of security ghosts wouldn't be POSD because they'd turn into a normal ghost

[@De_Jere]

Unless he's holding information for himself, I highly doubt we'll see "noticable" faces this time around. The huge difference with previous new skills is that there are now THOUSANDS with max XP, all ready to take the front page. With other skills there were many people that raced to 200m in the new skill, got a nice rank, but weren't 5b, 5.2b, 5.4b, etc. I'm just hoping we're finally gonna see a new rank 1 overall. The current one has been there for a few years now and he's one of the most corrupt kids on this whole game. A known scammer with no boundaries. It's a miracle he didn't get banned yet...

[@davidmaly6606]

holy ish. I havent played in like 10 months and I feel like im missing so much. dude is out here talking about 20 and 40B like its nothing.

[@De_Jere]

This dude has no job and does nothing except bossing on this game. 20-40b is way too overkill for this skill, it's not a buyable anyway. A few hundred mil will suffice for the new runes, gear, etc. Don't worry.

[@SpiritAus1]

Racing for top page is different scenario because some of the racers will buy the T-95's at ridiculous price 10's of Billions just like how Guildmaster Tony's mattock was 20b or something on release. The other Racers / Casuals who can't afford it might only use 100m's or couple Billion to get 99 / 120 or 200m

[@aeth3r630]
