Sepulcher Lost Sector Destiny 2 Guide and Location

by Legionless | Feb 18, 2023

Sepulcher is one of the five fastest Lost Sectors in Destiny 2. With Gjallarhorn, the Sepulcher Lost Sector can be cleared in 2 to 5 minutes with very little difficulty.

While our Master Lost Sectors guide features every Legend and Master Lost Sectors in the game, this Sepulcher mini-guide covers everything you need to know to prepare, including recommended loadouts, enemy shields, and Champions.

Sepulcher Location and Requirements

The Sepulcher Lost Sector is located in The Florescent Canal, on the Throne World.

Recommended loadout

Weapons & Armor

Weapon	Type	Archetype	Rarity	Ammo	Element	Requirements	In loot pool?	Ammo?	Element?	Tier	Excels	Source	Requires	Released	Slot	Can be Crafted?	Best of?	Top Perk?
Gjallarhorn	Rocket Launcher	Exotic	Exotic	Heavy	Solar	30th Anniversary	Yes	Heavy	Solar	Best ❘ S	PvE + PvP	Grasp of Avarice Dungeon	30th Anniversary	30th Anniversary event	Heavy	No	Top-tier

Pardon Our Dust	Grenade Launcher	Lightweight	Legendary	Special	Kinetic	Free-to-Play	Yes	Special	Kinetic	Strong ❘ A	PvE	Dares of Eternity	Free-to-Play	30th Anniversary event	Kinetic	Craftable	Top-tier

This season, the best loadout is:

Pardon Our Dust
BXR-55 Battler
Gjallarhorn (or Xenophage)
A Solar 3.0 Build

The majority of your ad clear in the Sepulcher Lost Sector will be with your Solar abilities and with Gjallarhorn. Your Solar abilities will create Solar Wells that will buff the damage from the BXR and Gjallarhorn.

Use your legendary grenade launcher to deal with Unstoppable Champions. The BXR and everything else in the recommended loadout will take care of the rest of the Lost Sector.

With Rocket Launcher ammo mods on your armor, you only need one Gjallarhorn rocket per Champion. The extra rockets go towards quickly killing a wave of enemies and the final boss.

Pro Tip: All of these weapons are very strong with a Solar 3.0 build. Weave a Solar 3.0 ability into your Solar weapons to make the Lost Sector easier for yourself.

Essential Mods

Make sure to equip these mods for easy runs:

Mod Name	Slot	Cost	Requirements	Effects	Type
Harmonic Siphon	Helmet	1	Rank 6	Rapid final blows with weapons matching your Subclass create an Orb of Power.	General
Anti-Barrier Pulse Rifle	Arms	1	None	Pulse Rifles you are wielding fire shield-piercing rounds and stun Barrier Champions (also deal bonus damage to Barrier Champions).	Champions
Recuperation	Legs	1	Rank 5	Replenishes health each time you pick up an Orb of Power.	General

Requirements

Difficulty	Legend	Master
Recommended Power	1580	1610
Exotic armor (if solo)	Rare	Common

Needless to say, these aren’t easy, and the least you should do is ensure you have a reasonable Power Level. By reasonable, we mean no less than 10 Power Levels below the recommended levels. If you find yourself struggling, work on increasing your Power Level as much as possible and focus on Legend Lost Sectors.

Sepulcher Lost Sector guide

Sepulcher is a really fast Lost Sector, but it’s easy to get surrounded by enemies. The Lost Sector is very close and confined with enemies spawning from multiple locations.

At the beginning of the Lost Sector, you’re stopped in an open room with almost no cover. In this room, enemies spawn from the left and right corners of the room.

Normally, this room can be difficult with all of the Solar abilities coming your way. What makes it easy is if you kill everything as they spawn.

Use your Solar abilities on one corner and Gjallarhorn on the other corner. One well-placed Solar Grenade and Gjallarhorn can kill almost every enemy that spawns.

In the final two rooms of the Sepulcher Lost Sector, there are a lot of enemies grouped up together. If it feels like there are too many enemies for you, use your Solar 3.0 abilities first.

This should clear away a good amount of enemies for you. If it’s not enough, the BXR and Gjallarhorn will make quick work of the rest.

BxR-55 Battler Destiny 2 featured Pulse rifle

BxR-55 Battler Solar Legendary Pulse Rifle

One especially annoying thing about the Sepulcher Lost Sector is how many Lucent Moths will attack you. They do a lot of damage if they get near you. It’s really easy to kill yourself if you shoot it when it’s too close.

Keep a look out for these Lucent Moths and shoot them when as soon as they spawn. If you kill them early, their explosions will kill enemies for you. You’ll save a ton of ability energy and ammo this way.
