Requirements

You will have to complete the icthlarin’s little helper quest beforehand to unlock access to the city of sophanem. Additionally, if you want bank access while in this area, you will need to complete the contact quest.

Suppose you are lower level and intend to use prayer while playing the pyramid plunder. In that case, you must complete any of the ardougne diaries to teleport to the monastery and restore your prayer points.

You only need level 21 thieving to access the first room of the game. Still, it’s strongly recommended to have at least level 71 because lower levels give you access to a minimum amount of rooms, meaning that the XP you will get per hour will drop significantly.

• keep in mind that boosts don’t work to go to another room; you must have the level required to enter that room.

Recommended Armor

You should focus on using weight-reducing gear to keep your run energy long and as high as possible. A good option uses full graceful, but boots of lightness and the spottier cape are suitable replacements.

For the anti-poison, you can either use antidotes ++ or a serpentine helm.

A prayer book or holy symbol will save you some food overtime. If you can wear and hp cape or a regen bracelet, you are encouraged to help your health regenerate quicker.

Make sure to bring the following items on your inventory:

• Food.
• 1 or 2 stamina potion. You can also restore your energy every time you bank.
• Emergency teleport. If you die in the pyramid, you will lose all of your items, so bring this teleport if you have to use it.

If you are lower level and you’re protecting from melee, bring some prayer potions to extend your trips.

Bringing a lockpick will increase the chances of picking the doors to the next room, but it will decrease your XP per hour.

Pyramid Plunder Location

There are a few ways to get to the jalsavrah pyramid in sophanem. The easiest option is through carpet rides. The first thing you need to do is travel to the shantay pass, which you can do by using a ring of dueling to travel to the dueling arena or using a ring of glory to get you to al kharid.

Once you are at shantay pass, take a carpet ride to pollnivneach, run south and take another carpet ride to sophanem.

• to get cheaper carpet rides, complete the feud quest if you want carpet rides for the free, complete desert hard diary.

You can also use the elite version of the desert amulet to teleport to nardah and then run towards the pyramid.

The pharaoh’s scepter will also teleport you right in front of the pyramid.

How To Play Pyramid Plunder

To start with the minigame, locate the mummy in either of the four entrances to the pyramid. Be aware that at random points in time, the mummy will change locations. When you start the game, you will be teleported inside the temple when your 5-minute timers will kick-off.

Depending on your thieving level, you will be granted access to a given amount of rooms. This means that to get the maximum amount of XP per hour, you need all these rooms completely. The first thing you need in each room is to disable the spike traps by clicking on the first set of traps. If you click on the second one, it will automatically bounce back.

Once you have completed the first room, move onto the next by pick-locking the wall’s doors. If it is the correct door, you will automatically be teleported to the next room.

When you reach your second to last room, loot the urns and then the gold chests. Don’t forget to watch your timer; if you have taken longer than necessary looting or finding the next room, it might be better to move onto the final room right away, since that one will give you more XP.

Loot

There are two main drops at the pyramid plunder minigame. The first is the pharaoh’s scepter, which has a 1 in 1,000 drop rate for each gold chest or sarcophagus your loot. You will also have a chance to receive statuettes and scarabs from the urns you are looting and turn in at Simon Templeton to get some cold coins.
