The Necromancer is Arigon's equivivalent to Oldschool Runescape's Crazy Archaeologist. He is weak to Melee (stab, slash and crush) and is strong against Ranged and Magic. Therefore, players are heavily advised to use melee gear and weaponry when fighting him.
Warning: This boss is located in the Wilderness!
Fighting the Necromancer
It is recommended to use Melee armour with a Dragon scimitar (or better) while praying magic. The fastest way to get there is by using the Forgotten Cemetary teleport (Level 30) through the Teleportation Interface and running South. His location in the wilderness is single target only.
Quotes
One quote is said every time the Necromancer attacks the player.
- "I'm a wizard - respect me!"
- "Get off my site!"
- "No-one messes with my incantation!"
- "These ruins are mine!"
- "Taste my witchcraft!"
- "You belong in the sewers, you rat"
