Old School RuneScape: How To Get Elite Void

In Old School RuneScape, players constantly strive for the best-in-slot items to enhance their performance in high-level PvM encounters or to progress their accounts. For those aiming to maximize DPS in boss fights or low-risk PvP scenarios, the Void Knight outfit—and its upgraded Elite Void variant—is a must-have.

The Elite Void Knight gear is highly regarded as one of the best armor sets in the game. Offering significant accuracy and damage bonuses across all three combat styles, it allows players to tribrid effectively without the need for additional inventory slots for alternative equipment. This makes it an invaluable tool for versatile combat strategies.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through the steps to unlock Elite Void in OSRS, helping you gear up for your next adventure with efficiency and ease. Let’s get started!

What Makes Elite Void So Powerful?

The Void Knight equipment is one of the most iconic and sought-after armor sets in Old School RuneScape, and for good reason. The set consists of four essential pieces: the Void Knight Top, Void Knight Robe, Void Knight Gloves, and one of three specialized helms (Melee, Mage, or Range). To fully unlock the set’s potential, you must wear all four pieces at once.

Each helm tailors the set bonuses to a specific combat style, enhancing accuracy and damage significantly:

Regular Void Knight Set Bonuses

• Void Melee Helm: +10% Accuracy and Damage
• Void Mage Helm: +45% Accuracy
• Void Range Helm: +10% Accuracy and Damage

When upgraded to Elite Void, the set becomes even more formidable. In addition to a sleek cosmetic redesign, the Elite Void Knight Robes grant a valuable +6 Prayer bonus, alongside enhanced combat benefits:

Elite Void Knight Set Bonuses

• Elite Void Robes: +6 Prayer Bonus
• Void Melee Helm: +10% Accuracy and Damage
• Void Mage Helm: +45% Accuracy and an added +2.5% Damage
• Void Range Helm: +12.5% Accuracy and Damage

The improved bonuses make Elite Void a powerhouse for tribrid combat, enabling players to seamlessly switch between melee, magic, and ranged without the need for separate gear sets. Its efficiency, versatility, and combat power make it a staple for high-level PvM and PvP encounters alike.

How to Get Void Equipment

Void Knight equipment can be obtained exclusively through the Pest Control minigame, located on the Void Knight Outpost. In this cooperative activity, players must fend off swarms of creatures emerging from portals and ultimately destroy the portals before the Void Knight at the center of the island is overwhelmed.

Pest Control Basics

Pest Control features three “landers” with varying difficulty levels, each requiring a minimum combat level and awarding differing amounts of Commendation Points per successful game:
• Novice Lander: Combat Level 40+ (3 Points)
• Intermediate Lander: Combat Level 70+ (4 Points)
• Veteran Lander: Combat Level 100+ (5 Points)

Completing tiers of the Combat Achievement Diary boosts the Commendation Points earned:
• Easy Tier: +1 Point
• Medium Tier: +2 Points
• Hard Tier: +3 Points

For example, completing the Medium Diary and playing on the Veteran Lander will award seven Commendation Points per successful game.

Pest Control Gameplay Tips

• Focus on the Veteran Lander for the highest points-per-game.
• No need to bring food or potions, as deaths are “safe” in Pest Control, even for Hardcore Ironman accounts. Dying simply respawns you at the lander, allowing you to rejoin the fight.
• Work with your team to efficiently take down creatures and portals for faster games and higher rewards.

Commendation Point Costs for Void Knight Equipment

Once you’ve accumulated enough Commendation Points, you can purchase the Void Knight equipment pieces from the Pest Control Rewards Shop:
• Void Knight Top: 250 Points
• Void Knight Robe: 250 Points
• Void Knight Gloves: 150 Points
• Void Knight Melee Helm: 200 Points
• Void Knight Mage Helm: 200 Points
• Void Knight Range Helm: 200 Points

Requirements to Wear Void Knight Equipment

To equip Void Knight gear, you must meet the following base stats:
• Attack: 42
• Strength: 42
• Defense: 42
• Magic: 42
• Ranged: 42
• Hitpoints: 42
• Prayer: 22

By focusing on the highest difficulty and leveraging bonuses from the Combat Achievement Diary, you can quickly amass Commendation Points and unlock this iconic armor set to enhance your gameplay.
