Sealed clue scroll (master) is part of the Treasure Trails Distractions and Diversion. Opening one will turn it into an active clue scroll (master).

Master clue scrolls are obtainable from any source that can provide an elite clue scroll (high-level boss encounters, Slayer monsters, completing other clues, level 60+ Mining, Woodcutting, Fishing, and Divination, and crystal triskelions). They can also be obtained as a reward from easy, medium, hard and elite tiers of Treasure Trail caskets, with elite caskets providing the highest drop rate.

• There is always a 1% chance for a sealed elite clue to upgrade to a sealed master clue.
  • If the quest Pieces of Hate is completed, the skeletal horror's chance of dropping a master increases from 1% to 1/12 (roughly 8.33%)
• Elite clues from the Prosper perk have the same 1% chance of upgrading to a master clue as any other elite clue.

While there is a soft cap of 25 (or 50 with the Treasure Trails Reward Shop purchase) for each of the four lower tiers of sealed clue scroll, master scrolls have no such restriction and can continue to be gained from all sources regardless of the amount currently held.

Update history

The update history project is a work-in-progress – not all updates to this topic may be covered below. See here for how to help out!

• ninja 12 October 2020 (Update):
  • There is no longer a cap on how many master clues you can obtain and hold at any one time. This also applies to elite clues that upgrade to master clues.
  • Scrolls and caskets obtained from various places will go directly to Charos' Clue Carrier, regardless of whether your Backpack is full.

• patch 23 July 2018 (Update):
  • Fixed an issue where the luck message for receiving a sealed clue scroll could be given even when you were already at your soft cap for that tier of clue.

• patch 14 May 2018 (Update):
  • Sealed clue scroll objects can now be distributed through lootshare, with respect to each players' individual clue scroll soft cap.

• patch 26 March 2018 (Update):
  • Fixed an issue where the luck message for receiving a sealed clue scroll could be given even when you were already at your soft cap for that tier of clue.

• patch 19 March 2018 (Update):
  • Receiving a sealed clue scroll from opening a lower tier casket now bypasses the 25 soft cap limit.

• hotfix 26 February 2018 (Update):
  • Loot beams now appear for sealed clue scrolls if the setting is enabled.

• patch 26 February 2018 (Update):
  • A new set of options has been added to Settings under the heading 'Minigame settings'. The new options allow players to individually toggle whether they receive sealed clue scrolls from skilling or monster drops, and whether they see loot beams for clue scrolls. Guaranteed clue sources bypass this, such as the Aquarium, Skeletal Horror, Triskelion keys, or the Prosper perk.
  • Clue scrolls are now dropped or looted as a new object called a 'Sealed clue scroll (difficulty)', which stacks and gives a new clue scroll of the same tier when opened. Players can only have up to one clue of each tier active at any one time, as before. There is a soft cap of 25 on sealed clues for each tier, but guaranteed sources bypass this.
  • Gold Premier Club members are eligible to receive a free, sealed master clue scroll from either Zaida or the Vault Guardian for the first two weeks after the update.
  • Sealed clue scrolls can now be obtained when Fishing, Mining, Woodcutting, or Diving, from most standard skilling activities. The tier of clue scroll players receive is weighted based on their level of the activity, with elites appearing at level 60 training methods and higher. There is always a 1% chance for a sealed elite clue to upgrade to a sealed master clue.
  • The Prosper perk still allows for an additional chance at a clue scroll while skilling, but now has a 1% chance of upgrading a sealed elite clue to a sealed master clue.
  • Treasure Trail caskets have new graphics, and are coloured to match their tier. Sealed clue scrolls also match this new colouring.
  • Drop options have been replaced with destroy options for all caskets, clue scrolls, challenge scrolls, scroll boxes, puzzle boxes and keys. Where applicable, the destroy message will indicate where to reclaim the item; however, in most cases the item cannot be reclaimed.

• update 26 February 2018 (Update):
  • Sealed clue scrolls are added to the game with the clue scroll overhaul.

Trivia

• For up to 2 weeks after their release, Premier Club members were able to obtain a free master clue from either Zaida or the Guardian of the Vault.
