OSRS Revenant Maledictus Guide: Spawn Mechanics, Gear & Drops

Overview: Revenant Maledictus at a Glance

Revenant Maledictus is a full boss in the Wilderness boss group, rated 3 out of 5 in our boss index and normally fought solo or team.

Before you can fight Revenant Maledictus you need Revenant Caves access.

Spawn condition timing is what this fight actually asks of you, and it is the thing standing between you and amulet of avarice.

Its own attacks are ranged and magic, so Protect from Missiles and Magic both have a job.

In our index it sits in the Wilderness boss group at difficulty 3 of 5, where kill times come down to spawn condition timing.

Access Requirements

Revenant Maledictus is gated behind Revenant Caves access.

Revenant Caves access also tends to sit alongside the other Wilderness boss gates, so it is usually cheaper to clear them together than to come back for each one. The boss requirements checklist lists them by group.

Location and How to Get There

Revenant Maledictus is found in the Revenant Caves.

Enter the Revenant Caves and kill revenants. The Maledictus is not a fixed spawn — it has a rare chance to appear whenever any revenant dies, and it guarantees an ancient emblem or ancient totem to whoever dealt the most damage.
