Got this to drop from the third necromancer I killed, went and traded it with Snuggly for the RoF, went back, killed  the other two and got the lantern again from the last one - it makes sense it would work this way every time, but can we confirm this, or did I just get the random drop chance twice?

The only other non-respawning enemy where the last one killed gives you a guaranteed drop is the Bell Gargoyles in Parish/Anor Londo. What happens if you got Gargoyle equipment the first time via random drop chance and then lost it or dropped it before killing the second set of gargoyles in Anor Londo? Would you also get the 100% drop for the equipment you did not have on you?

If the game checks, at the moment of the final necromancer's death, if you HAVE a skull lantern instead of it one was dropped already, it would be possible to go into Tomb of Giants with both a lantern AND a Ring of Fog provided you can get one of the first four necromancers to drop the lantern for you, which would be an immense boon.
