It's sad that after all the recent bad news and events a massive nerf is added too necromancy without seeing how much better the other styles will be affected by the combat rework. Right now they have confirmed a nerf too necromancy across the board to haunted, skeleton, zombie , ghost and ultimate abilities. With that being said I have worked hard over the last few months and got both tier 95 weapons , the whole first necromancy set all too be told its all getting nerfed. I've been playing on and off for 15 plus years and allmost max skills and came back just because of necromancy. I would assume the nerf happen so that they can add the 4th summon and codex so that the damage would equal what we are able too dish out now. Mr vishous

I basically comped in legacy so I'm aware.
However Jagex doesn't cater to legacy any longer.

However regardless of your opinion that legacy is old school combat it isn't.

In old school the triangle is triangular.
Mage beats melee beats range beats mage.

Auto retaliate works.

You can point and click.

You can bind and freeze and teleblock and spec.

It's a beautiful thing. the old system was not very balanced.
fog of memory seems to mess with people.
magic was suposed to beat melee but go look at the old old magic armor it was garbage and a 99/99 melee player could near one hit kill a mage if they got close.
it all leaned havely in favor of melee at the time and really did for a very long time

Jagex hinted at a Combat Beta on the 30th of October. Wonder what that's about? They say they're gonna change the other styles of combat.

Some Necromancy features will be adopted by the other three styles. Damage Cap raised to 30k, which can be a big thing. Crit chance mechanics among other things will be updated too.

Another update, there will be a preview stream this Friday, so we should know more and get some preparation on what to test in the beta which comes after the weekend.

its not balancing..its nerfing because the idiots think if we kill shit a minute faster itll destroy the entire game......even though we killed shit a minute faster for like 3 months.........idiots. they need to sell the game to intelligent and creative people.

It is totally not nerfing. In fact, they just rebuffed Necromancy this Monday, and we are getting a lot more Necromancy buffs with new Necromancy updates.

Before Necromancy, we got updates to the other 3 combat styles since 2001. Whenever there was an update that buffed Magic, Ranged and Melee were "nerfed" inevitably. So what? Living games need updates.

I like necromancy. Especially since monsters who use protection prayers, like tormented demons, don't protect against it, and also because monsters who stun and bind you does nothing to your conjurers, so they happily fight on while you are watching.

The whole thing seems flawed, or in best case unfinished, but as it make fights easier, I will gladly use it. :-)
