Welcome to my updated agility guide! Over the past few years, Jagex has implemented a variety of changes to the agility skill, making it more rewarding and versatile for players. From increased XP rates to new shortcuts and AFK options, agility training is now more efficient, profitable, and enjoyable than ever.

Recent Updates to Agility

Several significant changes have been made to agility in Old School RuneScape:

XP Rate Boosts: Fifteen agility courses received a 5–10% XP increase, with the Falador rooftop seeing a notable 28% boost.

Marks of Grace: These can now spawn at non-rooftop agility courses, providing more opportunities for completing the graceful outfit.

Agility Shortcuts: A broad range of new shortcuts have been added across the world, including Tavali Dungeon, Mount Kurulum, and the Revenant Caves.

Brimhaven Agility Arena: Adjustments here now provide more XP and profit.

Run Energy Improvements: Run regeneration is faster, especially at low levels, reducing the early-game reliance on the graceful outfit. Overall, run energy drains slower at all levels. From level 1 to 99, run energy regenerates nearly twice as fast, which is useful for questing, exploration, raids like Whisperer, and God Wars kiting methods.

For Ironman accounts, agility is required to make stamina potions. Additionally, level 70 is needed for the Song of the Elves quest (quest cape), and level 90 is required for the Ardougne Diary cape, although a summer pie boost can temporarily reduce the requirement to level 85.

Training Agility: Level 1–33

Questing for Fast Early XP

Questing remains the fastest way to train agility from level 1:

1. Tourist Trap: Levels 1 → 26

2. Recruitment Drive, Depths of Despair, Grand Tree: Levels 26 → 33

Low-Level Training Courses

If questing isn’t your style, several low-level courses are accessible from level 1:

Draynor Rooftop: No level requirement (formerly 10).

Gnome Stronghold Course: Level 1+

Shayzien Basic Course: Level 1+

XP rates: ~10k XP/hour at level 1.

Once you reach level 15, the Brimhaven Agility Arena spike trap method is significantly faster (~30k XP/hour with a summer pie boost). Comparatively, the Al Kharid rooftop at level 20 gives ~12k XP/hour.

Core Training Methods: Level 1–99

On the path to 99, most players will utilize seven primary training methods:

1. Rooftop Agility Courses

2. Brimhaven Agility Arena

3. Wilderness Agility Course

4. Hallowed Seula

5. Quininners Course

6. Apatlon Course

7. Colossal Worm Course

Additionally, niche methods include Barbarian Fishing, AFK Player-Owned House Agility, and spike trap training.

Rooftop Agility

Rooftop courses are the most relaxed method and excellent for low- to mid-level training. You click obstacles in sequence, completing laps while collecting Marks of Grace.

Level 1–99 Efficient XP: ~230 hours

Top Courses: Ardougne Rooftop (best XP), Prifddinas (level 75+), Seers & Pollnivneach for diaries and marks

XP Rates: Up to 70k XP/hour on the Ardougne rooftop with diary boosts

Tips: Use a summer pie to temporarily boost levels and access higher-tier courses early. Plugins like RuneLite’s agility boxes can streamline clicking.

Brimhaven Agility Arena

Location: Eastern Brimhaven

Entry Fee: 200 coins

XP Rates: 30k–70k/hour

Highlights: Navigate obstacles to reach highlighted dispensers for tickets, then exchange tickets for XP and rewards.

Spike Trap Method: At low levels (15–40), repeatedly crossing the spike trap can yield ~30k XP/hour, faster than rooftops.

Recommended Gear: Kuramja Gloves (2+), a graceful outfit, summer pie, food, or stamina potions.

This arena is also ideal for profit by purchasing items like Pirate’s Hook with tickets.

Wilderness Agility Course

Level Range: 47–62

XP Rates: 50k–higher XP with survival

Profit Potential: Up to 2M GP/hour

Risks: Located in the Wilderness, so PKers are a threat. Use anti-PK gear or team strategies.

Entry requires 150k coins. Loot scales with consecutive laps—average 6k GP/lap, rising to 26k GP/lap after 60 successful laps.

Hallowed Seula

The fastest XP method from level 62 to 99, but highly demanding:

XP Rates: 50k/hour (level 62) → 100k/hour (99)

Unlock: Level 52 agility + Sins of the Father quest

Money: 1M+ GP/hour at higher levels

Traps: Priest, Wizard, Knight, Crossbow statues, and blue/yellow teleport tiles

Tips: Use Saradomin items, Mithril grapple, crossbow, and Tile Packs plugin. Private instances reduce interference.

Prifddinas Agility Course

Unlock: Level 75 + Song of the Elves

XP Rates: 50k–70k/hour

Bonus: Crystal shards worth ~300k/hour

Relaxed training: Similar to rooftop courses with portal shortcuts.

Apatlon & Colossal Worm Courses

Apatlon (level 48): Collection log-focused, XP 40–55k/hour, provides Marks of Grace

Colossal Worm (Valore, level 50+): Slightly AFK-friendly, XP 30–42k/hour, provides Valore graceful recolor and agility pet transmog

AFK Agility Methods

Brimhaven Spike Trap: Semi-AFK using detached camera plugins or automated clicking.

Barbarian Fishing: Achieve ~74 agility while training fishing.

POH Agility: Longest AFK times but requires monitoring; XP 1k–12k/hour.

AFK methods are slower but allow multitasking and casual gameplay.

The Agility Pet: Giant Squirrel

Rarity: One of the rarer skilling pets

Chances:

  Rooftops: 44% (1–99)

  Hallowed Seula: 50%

  Brimhaven Arena: 60%

  Penguin Course: Best for guaranteed drop (~4M XP)

Training agility in OSRS requires patience and perseverance, with maximum XP rates reaching just over 100k/hour. With Jagex’s recent updates, faster run regeneration, new shortcuts, and improved XP rates make training more efficient than ever. By choosing the right courses and methods for your level, players can achieve level 99 agility, collect Marks of Grace, obtain the Giant Squirrel pet, and complete various diaries and quests with confidence.

This guide covers all major methods, from low-level questing to high-level AFK training, ensuring a smooth journey to 99 agility. Whether you prioritize XP, profit, or collection logs, this updated agility guide has you covered.
