RuneScape 3has revealed a crucial detail about the game’s upcoming Necromancy skill. The lastskill added toRuneScape 3was Archaeology, but it won’t be long until Necromancy provides a fresh stream of content for the game.
The game has had a lot to offer players lately, despite being one of the oldest MMOs on the market. Just recently,player-owned forts were released forRuneScape 3, a feature that had been long requested by the community to complement the already existing player-owned houses. Developer Jagex hasn’t always pleased the community over the years, but the studio’s commitment to releasing more updates for the game is unquestionable. The game continues to retain an extremely active player base, soRuneScape 3certainly isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.

Redditor Tkf530 pointed out that in a recent tweet made byRuneScape 3, the game has revealed the skill icon for Necromancy. Up until now, it had been kept a secret, but it seems as though Jagex is ready to begin unveiling more about the upcoming skill. The icon itself is quite interesting, a small skull with a purple and green hue on either side. It certainly has a magical feeling to it. The reveal of the icon does confirm that Necromancy will not be an elite skill like Invention, as some in the community had previously speculated.
Despite the reveal of the skill icon, it still isn’t massively clear exactly what the gameplay loop of Necromancy will look like. There are just so many unanswered questions at the moment. If it’s combat based, it could be one ofRuneScape 3’s most profitable skills. Some in the thread noted that the skill icon looks very similar to Slayer, but until there’s any solid gameplay then everything is just speculation. A hybrid between Slayer and Magic seems plausible, as there hasn’t been a new combat skill added to the game for a very long time.
It’s not justRuneScape 3players that have a lot to look forward to in the coming months.Old School RuneScapeis getting a new skill too, in the form of Sailing. Right now, Jagex is still consulting with the community about what the skill should entail, and only then will development move forward with it. It’s great news forOld School RuneScape. For the longest time, it seemed as though the community would never vote to add a new skill, but the most recent polling changed that. WithOld School RuneScapenow being ten years old, it’s the perfect time for such a big injection of new content into the game.
RuneScape 3is available now on PC and mobile devices.
