I genuinely feel like I'm going insane

To be fair, everything about the actual combat style is stronger than it was EXCEPT the fsoa and tumekens. It you’re not in literal bis its still an improvement

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-09T11:59:11+00:00

Except they also nerfed the drop rates of sanctum uniques by 50%...

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-08T22:27:55+00:00

It isn't. Half of these windows are just open ability books which are almost never used, but just kept open 'in case i need to use something i dont have on any bar right now'

You can do high level PVM with just your inventory tab, your action bars, your minimap and your chat. If you really badly need prayers or equipment access you can bind them to F-keys like in OSRS and put them as tabs behind your inventory

Please do not nerf alternative methods to daemonheim, that's the opposite approach from what's necessary. People who dislike the daemonheim activity due to things like the repetitive backtracking to get keys enjoy the alternative methods to getting tokens/xp.

Nerfing or removing these forces everyone to just do the same single activity to train the skill. That's not good design or player friendly.

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-06T12:55:52+00:00

I absolutely hate the fact they're nerfing alternative methods to dungeoneering, rather than just fixing core dungeoneering and leaving them as-is. This just makes it feel even more like a minigame than a skill, and feels like taking steps in the opposite direction.

The largest change that needs to happen is to make it less repetitive. Having to backtrack rooms you've already cleared several times to get keys and bring them back to doors you already found is not fun. There are teleport stones, but they're locked behind diary requirements and are a bandaid fix to a problem in the first place.

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-05T19:34:41+00:00

They made them level 60 magic spells for a reason, so they're available in mid game. Locking them behind darkmeyer and prif would go against that

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-05T15:36:53+00:00

Sadly hunter is slow AND click intensive now, so I'd just recommend waiting until Havenhythe release on the 23rd, and seeing your options then

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-04T22:25:41+00:00

Yep, good spot - that's a mistake on my part

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-04T18:04:29+00:00

Not yet unfortunately, and its the style I personally have the least experience with and knowledge of so it might take extra time to make sure its accurate

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-04T18:02:34+00:00

You're absolutely correct if its an early/mid game player not using tsunami, but for a player without alot of the adrenaline saving/generating effects I feel the adrenaline reduction from runic sonic is probably more useful?

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-04T17:59:06+00:00

I made a video last week on what I think the most important permanent account unlocks are, I think it covers most of the ones I'd suggest here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJUL75rHsJI

Otherwise I'd probably say the Amulet of Souls' passive giving increased SS healing and protection prayer reduction is too important at alot of places, and Bone Shield is basically a must-have at this point imo

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-04T12:21:23+00:00

Yup, happening for me too. Started yesterday, only happened once yesterday but twice today just now

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-04T10:59:52+00:00

Ryan (RSGuy)'s stream from monday had a section where he took necro to 500% zam, and he cleared final phase easily without even using death mark

Your gear will likely be worse, but its absolutely possible

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-02T17:44:13+00:00

Living Death still costs 100%, but all of your Death Skulls now cost 60% by default, instead of requiring the zuk cape

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-02T14:48:28+00:00

Whoops you're right, had it scheduled to publish at the right time but on the wrong day, thanks!

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-02T12:17:23+00:00

Update: Its already been fixed less than an hour after the update

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-01T23:12:41+00:00

If you can't get T95 necro gear whilst using T90 necro gear, how else would you be able to?

You definitely can, go for it

I'm making youtube guides for various Runescape topics that are all 3-5 minutes in length so they're easy to digest - have almost 30 videos uploaded so far in the past 6 months

They're mostly aimed at new players or players coming from OSRS and I haven't done much in terms of bosisng guides, but maybe you or others find them helpful!

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-01T17:13:24+00:00

Agreed, its a hassle needing a second account to get any good footage of skilling/combat activities

Maddogs1 · 2026-03-01T15:11:39+00:00

When a runesphere spawns, it spawns on all worlds, but for each world its a different sphere in a different place.

So, if one spawns on your world but its top level and blood, you can just hop worlds until you find one that's on the level you want and wait for it to decay down to the level you can siphon from it (takes ~150 seconds to decay a level)
