OSRS Revenant Guide

The Wilderness is scary enough already with all the player-killers and bosses inside of it. On your journey, however, you'll eventually come across Revenants. These are ghost version of the monsters that were killed during the God Wars. While their combat level isn't that daunting, the Revenants are still dangerous - capable of dealing high damage.

These ghosts are loved because of their generous drops, which include the acclaimed Wilderness Weapons. This in-depth guide tells you everything you need to know about the Revenants.

Where To Find OSRS Revenants

You can find Revenants within the Wilderness Area, particularly, inside the Revenant Caves. This is a high-risk cave that can only be accessed by P2P players. There are three entrances with various combat levels: level 17, 27, and 40. To make your journey easier, we suggest going to lower-leveled entrances. This will let you save your potions and food for the fight ahead.

There are multiple options to get to the caves other than walking. These are easier as they are less risky:

1. Revenant Cave Teleport - Drops you at the level 40 entrance.
2. Burning Amulet - Takes you to Bandit Camp or Lava Maze. From there, head east to get to the level 17 and level 40 entrances respectively.
3. Wilderness Obelisks - Takes you to level 27 obelisk which is near the level 26 entrance. Alternatively, you can go to the level 35 obelisk and then head northeast for the level 40 entrance.

4. Carallanger Teleport - Near the Graveyard of Shadows, which is near the level 17 entrance.
5. Canoeing - Use a canoe in the Wilderness to reach the level 40 entrance.

Are Revenants Worth Fighting?

Revenants are a great source of money because of their generous drops. However, the most common reason why players farm these enemies is because of the Wilderness Weapons.

These include:

• Craw's bow
• Webweaver bow
• Thammaron's sceptre
• Thammaron's sceptre (a)
• Accursed sceptre
• Accursed sceptre (a)
• Viggora's chainmace
• Ursine chainmace

These weapons are particularly strong against Wilderness monsters when they're charged with revenant ether.

OSRS Revenant Strategy

Getting to the Revenants is a challenge in itself. Make sure that your route is as optimized as possible and avoid any fights.

One of the most annoying mechanic of Revenants is their ability to heal themselves whenever their HP drops to below 50%. The good news is that their healing is limited so you'll eventually kill them. As this is a battle of attrition, it pays well to bring a good set of armor for high defense.

Just keep in mind that Revenants can use all combat types. It's best to bring defensive prayers for areas that you're lacking in.

As a general rule of thumb, it's to always be the first to initiate the fight. This helps you land more strikes on the Revenant. Make sure to keep your distance and pick your targets well so that you don't get overwhelmed.

If there are player killers in the area, make sure to be on guard with the right Prayer. If there are other players in the area, it's best to wear a full black d'hide armor to lessen the amount of damage you take from them.
