I don't think so :P You can see the new XP Rates and math out the numbers in an evening to come up with a strategy. So far it seems the META for Necro XP will be some Low level mobs like Banshees, Ankous or Soulless (an actually obscure monster few people know about), from there you camp Zombie Hands in the POSD until you hit level 70 and from there, you may want to farm either Hermod or Re-Fill your POSD with Bound Skeletons (which are vulnerable to the Amulet Salve e and Undead Slayer Perk + Ability), oh and these guys drop super restores (1) pretty often so you don't have to worry about Prayer Points. Then, from 99 - 120 I'll be doing elite dungeon trilogies, but only if necro is able to do 2 trilogies per hour, otherwise maybe HM Zuk or Raksha, I'd do solak in groups too but unsure atm.
@@dhruvizhere i did not because thats all dependent on your gear and which style you are using, and we dont know exactly how necro is going to handle aoe yet. Ive done this in the past and i think my xp rates were around 200-300k i think, which isnt great, but they are getting an xp buff with the new system and a lot of other mobs are getting a nerf so this is more of a psa that this MAY be a bangin spot after monday and an actual rs3 content creator should jump on this concept lol. I make Elder Scrolls Online videos. This was just for fun as I was theory crafting my own plans for necromancy
Using t90 necro power armor with t90 weapons, reavers ring, and split dragontooth neck + Soul Split/vampyrism and Darkness, not using any Overloads, and I am completely safe. Have had a few instances where I hit below 5k health, but its usually pretty brief.
dude please figure out the range setup here to go. I can't in hell survive them with darkness + t92 gear BOLG OR even achto with darkness.... there has to be something??
If youre trying to range these, youd probably want mechanized chinchompas, and a vamp aura. Or youd have to not afk and run a decimation eof or a decimation and keep the spec up the whole time for aoe damage. Still with a vamp aura. You could also try onyx bolts maybe? Those would provide some reasonable sustain I think but would be expensive of course. But honestly, ranging this seems like a bad idea. Without onyx bolts there isnt a ton of sustain options, and youre fighting in the wrong direction on the combat triangle. Another idea, depending on accuracy, you could try using cryptbloom armor. It would make you absurdly tanky, and if you can keep your accuracy up with a high enough tier weapon, potion, and prayer, your damage might still be good enough for afk xp. Just some thoughts though, Ive never tried range there.
@@CreativeExcusesGaming I was doing that last night. it seems to be 500k/H. I'm using t92 draco and BOLG with splintering arrows. Is this setup going to lose me profits? I was not really able to super afk it. I mean afk in the regard leave for like 8 mins away... instead i check everry kill with ss and pen arua
@ i play only ironman accounts so i dont know the cost, but I do know you can afk it with much worse gear than that. You shouldnt have to check every kill though. Grab a bunyip familiar for free healing, and use a demon horn or split dragon tooth necklace for free prayer points back. Then use a vamp aura instead of penance. And use prayer renewals. Also make sure youre overloaded. If youre not overloaded, go unlock overloads lol
Yes! Its not strictly the best but it is one of the best afk spots in the game. The requirements are quite high though with a blood essence which is untradeable
@@CreativeExcusesGaming idc about completely afking. just aboutsustainable semi afk. i wont get any of the dung stuff yet. but my levels are mostly 80+ whats the minimum setup to make it worth it? I was gana afk abyssals but it seems meh
@@fvlse_ mmm unsure on the minimum setup as I made the video before necro released and dont have membership on an account that can test that 😂 id probably guess you can start reasonably killing these with occasional food use around the 70-80 necro mark assuming you have t70-80 tank necro tank armor. The biggest requirement is the blood essence though which requires the entire vampire questline
@@CreativeExcusesGaming appreciate the response. My main was banned (hacked) long ago. I quit after eoc and my account sat for years. It was maxed but I had another alt account from back in the day with decent stats. I’m just having to do a lot of quests lmao…..
@@zentetsu811 unsure. If using mechanized chinchompas, you might do even better. If you sweat a little and use a decimation spec with a ring of death for basically infinite adrenaline, youll probably pull some great xp too. But I haven’t tested it with ranged so I don’t know for sure. You’ll definitely need darkness active for range though
100% positive unless the timer is longer than an hour or two. Ive afked in there way longer than standard aggression timers (10 minutes) and they stay aggressive.
Cheers pal, you're correct. :) Super awesome guide, I was using this to train Necromancy for a bit, now I''m using it to level up items. Cheers!@@CreativeExcusesGaming
Currently doing this, using no potions, no auras, im getting 460-480k necro xp/h Devotion + enhanced devoted, ice asylum and blood syphon is enough to keep me alive. if i didnt have to click once every 10 minutes, i could do this to infinity.
T80 weapons and t70 power armor, sweet. Im playing two accs right now so i havent leveled my main iron enough to afk it yet, but im close. I think if i made the t70 tank armor, i could jump in there real soon.
So I trained on these nonstop with a Sara godsword passive before necromancy release and I was able to sustain myself entirely with just prayer and that sword, after necromancy release I'm no longer able to sustain myself at ghouls without just immediately getting clapped back to lumbridge. Whatever that damned update did it nuked the other styles without having overloads on. One way to get people to use your new combat style.
They didnt change anything about not having overloads on, they nerfed (then reverted) overloads on multihit abilities. You should still be able to use an sgs passive there just fine. Ive done that method too which was great for full afk
Basically xp is all about dpm regardless what u kill 200k dpm is 600k per hour . Undead just have that extra 22% dmg bonus if I'm not mistaken, with salve and undead perk
@@CreativeExcusesGaming Alot of ppl are just focusing on damage on undeadafter maikeru put his plan out and I feel like the only one paying attention to defense stats , given we wont have high weapons and gear
@@zachcarter3186 salve ammy giving increased accuracy will be really strong, but after you read 100% hit chance and damage without a salve ammy, other monsters will have a chance at coming out on top. These should be roughly 700k xp an hour if another commenter’s rates are accurate enough for necro (about 1k kills per hour)
If these counted as undead, then they would absolutely be the play. Unfortunately they don't though, so I'm having a hard time justifying them over bound skeletons & armored phantoms. Comparing them to Bound Skeletons, the ghouls have the advantage of higher LP (14,500 vs 12,000) and more spawns. But Idk if it makes up for the higher defense (75 vs 65) and not being susceptible to salve, undead slay perk & undead slay ability. But even if they're not meta, there's no doubt this is a good training spot.
Yea they might be like a 2nd or third best in slot kind of place and they dont require ushabtis which is nice. I think my favorite part is that they are 0 supply training. No aggro pots, no prayer pots, no food necessary. Just charges which is nice for my lazy self ironman lol
@@joshuaeissler22 thats probably still a really solid plan lol. This may just be nice for people without a nicely stacked dungeon (like me lol). I have no ushabtis at all lol
the problem is that necromancy seems to be primarily a single target focused skill, so doing damage to multiple enemies won't be amazing but I am sure still just killing one of these things one at a time with the added two known abilities that are actually aoe will make it pretty decent.
Yea it will 100% depend on the aoe potential. The biggest thing is if there is a target cap on the aoe abilities like chain or ricochet. If there isnt a cap, then no matter what, hitting as many enemies as possible with those abilities is what will lead to higher xp rates because you are dealing more damage overall. With the new/old xp system, overall damage per hour will directly correspond to xp per hour.
It would be hilariously slow, but as Maikeru has pointed out, you can wear hybrid gear so its possible you could come here right away, bring a 2h melee weapon and quake for the defense debuff and affinity debuff, and then jump straight to level 10 or something. Its probably faster doing something else, but its likely possible
@@blardmann hahahaha i love the honesty. I tried it at low levels and got smacked hah. But I look forward to being able to use the spot in the future. Been playing my new ultimate iron more than my main ironman
Lol yea the vamp aura and reflect melee does a lot there. With melee you can also use the vampyric blood essence or a vamp scrim which helps a lot too. Im sure the vengeful ghost could also help sustain if you can use that. The healing on it is super nice if youre not using it

Very nice and detailed vid. I think the spot itself was well known but it's nice to have the specifics, ty. :)
This was a great video! I didn't even realize this place existed. Will definitely be checking it out!
Its where i farm congealed blood for my vampyric blood essence! Thats the only reason I know about it. Was an easier afk than vyres believe it or not
Ima go with Ditto!
Thanks a lot, it's a great spot. Seems like it's a secret gem. Haven't seen this mentioned anywhere else.
Thank you very much, the aggro option is huge and will be maxing tonight!
The free aggro is my favorite part for sure. It turns out it isnt the absolute best in slot place, but the 12 minute afk can be veeerrry nice
