Very helpful thread! Jagex's info isn't easy to google up so I appreciate you accumulating it here.

Let's just come to terms with it; Necromancy will be dead content on release!

 

I won't be racing myself, I will be thoroughly enjoying the new skill release and take it all in. Maybe I will even make some extra change and supply you all in your race! Anyways, for those who are racing or just want to be extra prepared, here is a good resource (Spreadsheet on google docs, courtesy of Dragonseance) full of good tips and tricks, both on possible progression paths, and armor ideas.

Good Luck on the 7th!

I have not watched the stream. There is a link in the post linked below that is supposedly where Jagex mods speak of this.

Well congrats to all the 99/120/200m people already yall beat the nerf

If there are things people wish to see in this threads main posts that aren't mentioned feel free to poke me and I can edit.

 

Most of the skill is straight forward training, as someone who usually bothers to look everything up beforehand I'm unsure what if anything else would be worth mentioning here.

 

I could clean up the prep section since that rush is over and a lot of it isn't overly important anymore.

It's just for the necromancy variant of the DFS but that's largely irrelevant with super antifires being tradable nowadays.
