Notes[]
- One barrel blueprint is required to reach Rank 2 - Clearance: Modus with the Necraloid.
- Despite ostensibly being unlocked at Rank 2 - Acquaintance with Entrati, the weapon's components require a Trapezium Xenorhast for which the blueprint can only be obtained at Rank 3 - Associate or higher.
- Alternatively, Trapezium Xenorhast can be acquired from Cambion Drift's Isolation Vault Bounties, or traded from other players.
- When the charge gauge is full, Alternate Fire can toggle between its burst-fire and lock-on modes.
- Up to a maximum of 5 targets can be locked-on by aiming at enemies within 80 meters, indicated by the circular reticle.
- Locked-on targets are marked by a white diamond.
- If the target moves 100 meters away or dies while being aimed at, their lock-ons are removed.
Trivia[]
- A sepulcrum is a grave or similar burial place, such as a tomb.
- The design of Sepulcrum's magazine is highly reminiscent of a type known as a "casket magazine".
Bugs[]
- Currently the Alt-fire lock on can not be toggled on while aiming, despite playing the audio cue and lockon sound.

Patch History[]
Hotfix 30.7.5 (2021-09-16)
- Fixed inability to engage the Sepulcrum’s Alt Fire mode while aiming.
Update 29.5 (2020-11-19)
- Fixed the sound FX that the Sepulcrum plays when you’ve reached 5 kills transmitting to all other players in the squad, regardless of distance.
Update 29.1 (2020-09-17)
- Decreased the unguided flight time of the Alt Fire on launch from 0.06s to 0.03secs.
- Decreased the unguided flight time of the Alt Fire smoothing from 1s to 0.4secs.
- This makes the Alt Fire projectile start to home in on their targets faster and curve more acutely towards them.
- Decreased Alt Fire re-arming delay from 0.2s to 0.01secs.
- This decreases the time between being able to lock onto additional targets after the first.
- Increased max lock distance from 60m to 80m.
- Increased loose lock distance from 80m to 100m.
- This increases the distance you can lock onto targets with Alt Fire from 60m to 80m, and lock won't be lost unless the targets move beyond 100m.
- Fixed cases of the Sepulcrum Alt Fire not properly targeting enemies.
Hotfix 29.0.6 (2020-09-01)
- Fixed the Sepulcrums Alt Fire homing projectiles sometimes endlessly circling low profile targets like the Deimos Carnis enemy.
