RuneScape 3's upcoming Necromancy skill is set to provide players with a fresh and exciting addition to the game. Despite being one of the oldest MMOs on the market, RuneScape 3 remains popular among its active player base and continues to offer new content, such as the recent release of player-owned forts. While developer Jagex has faced criticism from the community in the past, their dedication to providing regular updates ensures that RuneScape 3 is here to stay.
Recently, RuneScape 3 shared an intriguing tweet that caught the attention of Redditor Tkf530. The tweet unveiled the skill icon for Necromancy, a skill that has been shrouded in secrecy until now. The icon itself is striking, featuring a small skull with a purple and green hue on either side, evoking a magical aura. Interestingly, the reveal of the icon confirms that Necromancy won't be an elite skill like Invention, which had been a point of speculation within the community.
Despite this exciting development, there's still a lot of ambiguity surrounding Necromancy's gameplay loop. It's unclear whether it will be combat-based, but if it is, it could become one of RuneScape 3's most profitable skills. Some have noted that the skill icon bears a resemblance to Slayer, but until more information is released, everything is purely conjecture. A hybrid between Slayer and Magic seems like a plausible direction, especially given that the game hasn't introduced a new combat skill in quite some time.
Old School RuneScape players can also anticipate a new skill, Sailing, coming their way in the near future. Jagex is currently seeking feedback from the community on what the skill should entail before proceeding with development. This is exciting news for Old School RuneScape players who may have thought that adding a new skill would never be possible. With the game being a decade old, the addition of new content through Sailing is a much-needed refreshment. RuneScape 3 is currently available for play on both PC and mobile devices.
