OSRS Hallowed Sepulchre Guide: The Ultimate Agility Method

For years, Agility training meant one thing: running in circles on rooftops. The Hallowed Sepulchre, introduced with Darkmeyer, changed everything. This Agility-based minigame offers the best XP rates in the game, engaging gameplay, and fantastic rewards.

This guide will walk you through the mechanics of the Sepulchre, from the requirements to mastering each floor and claiming your loot.

Getting Started: Requirements

  • Quest: Sins of the Father
  • Skill: 52 Agility (minimum to enter)
  • Items: Hallowed Symbol (or Vampyre Dust to make one), Hallowed Grapple, Hallowed Focus. You'll need a crossbow to grapple.

The entrance is located within the church in the center of Darkmeyer.

How it Works: The Five Floors

The Hallowed Sepulchre is a timed Agility course. You have a set amount of time to reach the end of each floor. As you progress, the obstacles become more complex and require better timing.

  • Floor 1 (52 Agility): The basics. Simple arrow traps and magical projectiles.
  • Floor 2 (62 Agility): Introduces sword traps and new projectile patterns.
  • Floor 3 (72 Agility): Adds flame traps that must be doused with water.
  • Floor 4 (82 Agility): Features teleporting projectiles and more complex obstacle combinations.
  • Floor 5 (92 Agility): The final and most challenging floor, with a grand treasure coffin at the end.

Your goal is to complete each floor as quickly as possible to bank time for the later, more difficult floors.

Looting: Hallowed Marks and Rewards

The main incentive beyond XP is looting the coffins found on each floor.

  • Looting: To loot a coffin, you must reach it and solve a simple puzzle before the timer runs out. Looting coffins on higher floors gives you a better chance at more valuable rewards.
  • Hallowed Marks: The main currency you'll get from looting. These are used to purchase unique rewards from the shop.
  • Ring of Endurance: The grand prize. This ring has a chance to reduce the amount of run energy drained, and can be charged with stamina potions for even greater effect.
  • Dark Graceful: You can purchase dyes to recolor your Graceful Outfit into a sleek black and red design.
  • Other Rewards: The coffins can also contain runes, alchables, bolts, and even the rare Hallowed Crystal Shard.

XP Rates: Why It's the Best

The Hallowed Sepulchre blows rooftop courses out of the water. While rooftops cap out around 60-65k XP/hr, the Sepulchre offers a much higher ceiling.

  • Mid-Levels (72+): 70-75k XP per hour.
  • High-Levels (92+): 85-95k+ XP per hour.

The trade-off is that it requires constant focus, whereas rooftops are very low-effort.

Ironman Hallowed Sepulchre Strategy

For Ironmen, the Sepulchre is a fantastic, self-sufficient training method.

  • The Rewards: Unlike rooftops, which only give Marks of Grace for stamina potions, the Sepulchre provides tangible value. The runes, Sanfew's Serums, prayer potions, and alchables are all highly valuable for an Ironman account.
  • Focus on Looting: While a main account might skip early floor chests to maximize speed, an Ironman should consider looting them. The consistent supply rewards are well worth the slightly lower XP rates.
  • Long-Term Goal: The Ring of Endurance is an amazing quality-of-life item for an account that will be doing a lot of running for clue scrolls, quests, and skilling.

Conclusion

The Hallowed Sepulchre is a masterclass in skilling design. It transformed Agility from a tedious, low-effort grind into an engaging, high-risk, high-reward challenge. If you want the fastest Agility XP in the game and a chance at some truly unique and valuable rewards, there is no better place to be.
