The Ghostly Robes in OSRS are incredibly unique cosmetic items, providing minor Magic bonuses and making their wearer completely transparent. They are often sought after by completionists and those looking for specific cosmetic items.
The transparency effect is a fun novelty you can enjoy while adventuring throughout Gielinor, or show off to your friends in the costume room of your Player-owned House. This requires a magic wardrobe, however, and lets you save on the bank space.
If you would like to get the ghostly robes in Old School RuneScape, know there are a few requirements to be met and tasks to be completed. In this guide, I’ll show you how to get Ghostly Robes in OSRS.
Necessary Items
Getting the Ghostly Robes in OSRS can be done in a few steps. First, you need to have started the quest ‘The Restless Ghost’ for access to the Ghostspeak Amulet. You also need to have started “Desert Treasure” for access to the Ring of Visibility.
Both the Ghostspeak Amulet (or Morytania Legs 2 or higher) and the Ring of Visibility are required to start the miniquest ‘Curse of the Empty Lord’, each step of which rewards you with part of the Ghostly Robe set.
Curse of the Empty Lord
You can start Curse of the Empty Lord by equipping the Ghostspeak Amulet and the Ring of Visibility, and talking to Valdez the Explorer outside Glarial’s Tomb, which is northwest of the Fishing Guild. You will have to follow one of three routes, depending on what he tells you.
The route he will give you is determined randomly, and may require you to go to Entrana, or deep into the Wilderness. Pay attention to what he says to you, as this determines your route. If he talks about PIRATES AND A SHIPWRECK, follow route 1. If he talks about a thief being NORTHEAST, follow route 2. If he talks about a thief being SOUTHEAST, follow route 3.
You will need to speak to the same NPCs who will give you the same pieces of the Ghostly Robe set regardless of the route you’re given. The only thing determined by your route is the location of these ghostly NPCs. They must also be spoken to in the order described.
Curse of the Empty Lord: Route 1
If following route 1, you first need to speak to Rennard, who is between the Wilderness Agility Course and the Pirates’ Hideout, near a shipwrecked ship. This is in level 52 Wilderness, so be prepared for that. Listen to his story, and he will give you the Ghostly Gloves.
Then, speak to Kharrim, who is located at the Chaos Temple altar in level 38 Wilderness. Let him speak, and he will give you the Ghostly Boots.
Next, talk to Lennissa at the Church on Entrana. You must use the Ghostspeak Amulet instead of the Morytania Legs 2/3/4 for this step, as the legs are armor, and as such, are not allowed on Entrana. She will give you the Ghostly Robe Bottom after listening.
After Lennissa, talk to Dhalak, who is on the first floor of the Wizard’s Tower near Draynor Village. Listen to him, and he will give you the Ghostly Hood.
Finally, speak to Viggora, who can be found upstairs on the second floor of the Rogue’s Castle. This is in level 52-56 Wilderness again, so don’t bring anything you’re not willing to lose. He is near a bronze sq shield spawn and the Chaos Elemental, so this place is quite dangerous. After listening to Viggora, he will give you the Ghostly Cloak.
Curse of the Empty Lord: Route 2
If given route 2, you can find Rennard near the shops in the Wilderness Bandit Camp, in level 17-24 Wilderness. The bandits around may make it difficult to get through the conversation with him. If that’s the case, try luring them into the food store and shutting the door on them.
After speaking to Rennard, Kharrim will be located at the Graveyard of Shadows in level 18-21 Wilderness. Usually, he will be found near the southernmost tomb in the Graveyard.
Once you’ve spoken to Kharrim, you can find Lennissa in Port Sarim, at the docks. She will be near the Lady Lumbridge ship, which is how you get to Crandor during ‘Dragon Slayer I’.
With Lennissa listened to, you will find Dhalak upstairs at the Edgeville Monastery. You need 31 Prayer to access this floor.
Finally, after listening to Dhalak’s spiel, Viggora will be located on the second floor of the Slayer Tower near Canifis. He will be near the Infernal Mages, by the southeast stairwell. Consider bringing a nose peg or Slayer Helmet, as you will be near Aberrant Spectres.
Curse of the Empty Lord: Route 3
If you are given route number three, you can find Rennard on the western side of the Bandit Camp in the Kharidian Desert. Keep in mind that other players may be standing on top of him.
After speaking to Rennard, you can find Kharrim inside the fenced area at the end of the Lava Maze in level 40-45 Wilderness. You will need a knife or slash-based weapon in your inventory to cut through spider webs blocking your progress.
Once Kharrim has been listened to, Lennissa can be found in the Tree Gnome Stronghold, on the western side, just south of the Gnomeball Field’s fence.
After Lennissa’s listening has been completed, you will find Dhalak in the upstairs section of the Falador Party Room. He will be on the eastern side of the building.
Finally, Viggora will be in the northernmost room of the Edgeville Dungeon near the Earth Warriors. The Warriors are aggressive and may attack you, but trapping them with Viggora himself between you and the Warriors is possible.
If attempting to trap the Warriors, speak to Viggora and get through the first lines of dialogue as soon as possible. This prevents the Warriors from continuing to attack you until you’ve finished your conversation with the ghost.
Final Thoughts
Getting the Ghostly Robes in OSRS can be done in a few simple steps. First, you need to complete the quests ‘Restless Ghost’ and ‘Desert Treasure’ until you get the Ghostspeak Amulet and Ring of Visibility, respectively.
From there, you’ll need to speak to a number of ghostly spirits located throughout the world with these items equipped. Their locations are determined randomly, and you simply need to let them speak to obtain their Ghostly Robe set pieces.
