OSRS Agility Guide - Training 1-99 Fast (F2P & P2P Methods)

Agility is one of the P2P OSRS skills that can only be trained in the membership worlds. It is one of the slowest skills to train in the game and this is due to the lack of good AFK methods to train it. All of the efficient and fast ways to train Agility are not AFK at all and requires your attention for almost all of the time.

By training Agility, you are able to unlock various and very useful shortcuts that give you an advantage over the lower Agility level players in addition to being able to start some quests. Also at a higher level of Agility, your run energy will be restored much faster especially after level 50 where you can notice the difference.

In this article, we will be introducing the fastest way to level 99 Agility as well as how to make money while training but don’t expect much money. Training this skill is fairly cheap, the only thing you will have to pay for is probably the Stamina Potions or the Agility boosts at the early levels.

Make sure to check out all 23 OSRS skills in our relevant guide.

OSRS Agility 101

Training Agility is mainly done at some specific places which are called Agility Courses. These places consist of a circle that has many obstacles to pass, each time you pass an obstacle you gain some Agility XP. The obstacle with the most Agility XP is usually the last obstacle in the course, which means you have to complete the whole course to gain good XP rates.

How to Train Agility

To complete an Agility Course, you have to follow the direction signs found once you pass an obstacle. These signs show you the next obstacle you have to pass until you finish the course and this is when you have to start it again. To start an Agility Couse, you should find the first obstacle in the course which will be marked by the Agility Course sign on the map.

Keep in mind that you can fail passing one of these obstacles resulting in talking damage and starting over the whole Agility Course, thus you will need some food at the early levels. Also failing an obstacle is depending on your Agility level, the higher level, the lower fail chance. Some obstacles have 0 fail chance, so the chance of failing is not always there.

The Agility Course may drain your run energy as a result of failing an obstacle and repeating it all again especially at the early levels which means you will need some Stamina/ Energy potions. Also, your total weight should be 0 kg or below so you drain much less energy by running around.

Agility Courses

There are many Agility Courses in the game with each having a required level as well as a completion of a quest to gain access to some courses. You can check these courses in the table below.

Marks of Grace

The most useful item you can get by training Agility is the Graceful outfit, this outfit reduces your weight by 25 kg which results in boosting your energy restoration by 30%.

This outfit can only be obtained through exchanging Marks of Grace from Grace NPC in Rogues’ Den under The Toad and Chicken bar in Burthorpe.

Marks of Grace can also be used to make some money by buying Amylase packs from the same NPC. These Amylase packs contain 100 Amylase crystals which can be sold for around 1K gold each at the Grand Exchange.

The only way to obtain Marks of Grace is through participating in some Agility Courses called Rooftop Agility Courses. Note that doing these courses to buy Amylase packs is the only good way to make money from Agility. You can see these courses in the table below.

The chance of obtaining Marks of Grace is reduced by 20% if your Agility level is 20 levels higher than the required level of the Agility Course.

Obtaining the Graceful outfit as fast as possible is also very useful for the training the remaining of your Agility levels as it helps to reduce your run energy consumption by restoring it faster than the normal rate.

Shortcuts

Shortcuts are various and can be found almost everywhere in the game. They are very helpful in some cases and some areas are only accessible via a shortcut. The tables below contain all the Shortcuts you can find in the game.

Useful Agility Items

Items below will make it easier to train and probably faster, use them if it is possible.

Weight-reducing Clothes

Reducing your weight is very helpful as it reduces your Stamina consumption during the Agility Course. There are some good weight-reducing clothes in the game and the most important one of them is the Graceful outfit. But since you can’t get it from level 1 Agility, it is advised to use the other weight-reducing clothes until you get enough Marks of Grace to buy the outfit.

You can check all of the weight-reducing clothes and their requirements in the table below.

Potions

Some potions like Stamina, Energy, and Super Energy are very useful during the Agility course. You should only use them if you find your run energy being consumed quickly so you don’t waste your money.

All of these potions can be obtained through Herblore with each having it’s required level. Stamina requires level 77, Energy potions require level 26 and Super Energy requires level 52.

Boosts

Using some Agility boosts is very useful to unlock a higher level of Agility Courses thus gaining more XP/Hour. Keep in mind it also means you will fail the obstacles more often since your Agility level is pretty close to the requirements.

Agility Quests

Completing these quests will help you to get to a higher Agility level instead of beginning at level 1, but this also means you will get your Graceful outfit at a higher level of Agility. Completing them is totally up to you.
