''RuneScape'' partially treats [[combat]] with death spawns as a non-combat situation. The auto-retaliate setting has no effect against them; in other words, unless the Death spawn is manually clicked, a player will never fight back if attacked by one. To fight a Death spawn, the player must attack it directly (must right click it and click 'attack'). A player under attack by a Death spawn can even log out instead of needing to wait 10 seconds after combat. Random events can take a player away even while they're fighting a Death spawn. Also, the [[Lumbridge Home Teleport]] is not interrupted by death spawns. Despite all of this, however, the attack of a Death spawn can still interrupt conversation. Also, multiple death spawns and a Nechryael may attack a player at once even though it's single combat in the slayer tower, yet the player cannot attack a death spawn until the Nechryael is dead or combat with the Nechryael is disengaged as its single combat.

A death spawn only exists for a limited amount of time after being summoned by the Nechryael. It fades away at the end of its time, even if engaged in combat with a player.

When using a [[Guthan's set]] while fighting Nechryael, Death spawns are useful targets for healing with Guthan's, as they have low defence, a low max hit, and a fair number of life points for their level. As Death spawns attack using a typeless melee attack, Protection prayer will not work against them, while it hits easily through the melee armour. This can be dangerous while fighting Nechryaels while using Dharok's set effect.

RS
Old School RuneScape uses the British convention for floor numbering: Ground floor, first floor, etc.
For the monster spawned while fighting the Nechryarch, see Chaotic death spawn.

Death spawns may be summoned when players are fighting Nechryaels or their greater variant; when attacked, they may summon up to two death spawns to help attack the player. While having an extremely low max hit of 2, they are able to hit through protection prayers. Unlike their summoners, death spawns have no Slayer requirement in order to be harmed.

In the Slayer Tower, which is single-way combat, death spawns can attack the player even if they are under attack by other death spawns or a Nechryael. The player cannot attack the death spawn(s) until they kill the Nechryael they are in combat with.

Auto Retaliate does not trigger to attack them. Home teleports are also unaffected by the death spawns attacks. Despite this, they can still interrupt conversation with other NPCs or other dialogue screens, such as teleport options when operating a piece of equipment.

Players who use Guthan's equipment may prefer to heal on death spawns rather than Nechyraels due to their lower combat stats.

After being summoned by a Nechryael, the death spawn will despawn after 1 minute.

Death spawns are demons, so the special abilities of the silverlight, darklight and arclight affect them.
