Still have not received lost Praesul Codex from day 1 bug. Lost item request submitted a week ago
Sorry for the wait. The team are getting through any tickets as soon as we can. We'll check in with them today to see what the latest is on response times for these.
Yeah, I'm shocked they didn't do *something*.
The visibility of the targeted tile is what I'd like addressed.
Mod Ryan mentioned in his post last week, but our first week was dedicated to fixing more immediate issues as the priority and start digesting feedback for future updates.
You'll see more general improvements and refinements over the weeks ahead.
The patch note format is fantastic, but I really wish Jagex would respect the players enough to be upfront about why the black crystal is being changed. This and the overload change were both tucked away in patch notes when they should have been discussed at least a little before going through with the change.
I don't have that much of an issue with the change itself, but how Jagex has communicated it. It's phrased like a bugfix instead of what it actually is: a targeted nerf to the functionality of an item that was used for a specific purpose that it no longer fulfills.
Fair point. We'll talk to development and try to respond early next week with more context - at the very least, we'll cover it in next week's Livestream.
Just to add to this - our first Necromancy update post is dropping at 3pm Game Time today which give even more detail on where we are today (and as Mod Ryan said, more valuable conversations to happen next week).
We'll also have a stream next week focused on Necromancy to keep the conversation flowing.
Nice! I got to Hermod last night as well, and it's been awesome to be playing Full Manual while bossing for once. Good luck on your learning journey - go get Rasial!
Yeah this is definitely something we're aware of - we're discussing the feedback and how best to address it.
We just hotfixed this. Thanks for reporting it.
You'll hear from us soon - it's a conversation we'll definitely have and take feedback on.
The dev team's time right now has been focused specifically on Necromancy and initial feedback / bugs specifically on that content as the priority. Once the dust settles on release a little bit, we'll work with development on having a conversation around this - won't be long at all, we're talking days/weeks not months.
All your thoughts are being read by the team - here and elsewhere - to consider already though.
Update: Aug 8, 2:10 Game Time
We have deployed a fix and we believe the issue has now been resolved. Thanks so much for the patience - enjoy Necromancy!
Hooray! Glad you guys are working on it, figured with it being the middle of the night there wouldn't be much other than a SKELETON crew. (lol)
When it's this late at night, I greatly appreciate the dad joke. Thanks for the laugh.
We are investigating reports of Login Issues and availability of certain Worlds. Please stand by for further updates.
External link →I thought using an unintended method was considered bug abusing?
It's not unintended method, it's unintended design balancing.
There's always a risk when working with 22 years of content relevant to a new Skill that we can miss older content methods that are outside our intentions for the XP balance of the skill. There was nothing wrong being done by doing this.
Essentially it was a nice find, but something we wanted to close off for balance reasons rather than being a bug that was abused.
This is a known issue that's affecting a small subset of players. Sorry you've been affected.
If you log out and retry the cinematic, you should be offered the option to skip. This is a workaround for anyone running into this - let us know if it helps you progress.
We're consistently monitoring XP earn rates across the Skill to ensure all methods are within reasonable expectations for progression.
It was valid, you absolutely didn't break any rules or doing anything untoward. We addressed the rate because it was as outside of intended experience rates based on our designs - partly due to it being an outdated method.
Anything you earned is legitimate, even if we needed to address the XP rate, so you've still got the gains from the method even if it's not viable anymore.
Black screen for me too on mobile, I’ve reinstalled app but no luck. Keep getting insta kill animations popping up too. Any fix?
Have you tried recently? We deployed a Hotfix that lets you skip the cinematic, which we believe will be a temporary workaround for the issue.
Thanks for reporting this. We've got this logged and are investigating a fix.
4 tries, black screen for me too. Cant get in portal
Sorry to hear this. We're looking into it and we'll keep you updated.
Thanks for the report. We're looking into this as a potential bug immediately.
We recommend submitting a Lost Item report asap for the team to look into restoring this: https://support.runescape.com/hc/en-gb/articles/209366569-Lost-items

I'd love to rock some Necromancy Flair with a T-shirt :D
And perhaps add the OST too? I'd love to have a digital copy because I'm sure the Tracks will be amazing as always.
There is some new Necromancy merch on the horizon!
