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.
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

Marks of Grace
Graceful Outfit, Old School Runescape
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 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.

Weight-reducing Clothes
Full Graceful Outfit Equipped, Old School Runescape
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
Stamina Potion Effect, Old School Runescape
Some potions like
Stamina,
Energy, and
Super Energy are very useful during the

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
Agility Level Boosted, Old School Runescape
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.

Required level: 30 Recommended level: 50+ XP/Hour: 20K~40K Average time per round: 3 minutes Recommended Items: Food, Waterskins & Stamina Potions
Agility Pyramid is a special Agility Course that can be used to make money while training your Agility. First of all, you can start this
Agility Course at level 30
Agility, but it is highly recommended to do it at level 50
Agility at least.
This
Agility Course is located southwest of Nardah in the Kharidian Desert, thus you need waterskins to avoid getting damaged by the desert heat.
The aim of this
Agility Course is to climb up the Pyramid until you reach the top to collect the
Pyramid Top which is an item that can be exchanged for 10K coins from Simon Templeton who is located near the start of the course.
Players can fail to pass the obstacles in this
Agility Course, but there fail chance gets reduced as you train the
Agility to a higher level. At level 75, players will stop to fail any obstacle permanently. Note that failing an obstacle can damage you up to 10 points each time.
Failing an obstacle will force you to start from the previous layer of the Pyramid.
Agility Money Making
Methods to make money through
Agility is not that popular since you won’t really make that good amount of money. However, you can still make money as a secondary target while focusing on your main target which is training. The following method is the most used way to make money while training.
Completing any of the Rooftop Agility Courses has a chance of finding
Marks of Grace, making these courses a very good way to make money.
The
Marks of Grace and the Rooftop Agility Courses were previously explained in this article, so you can head to the OSRS Agility 101 section to know more about them.
It is advised to start doing it only for the money at level 40
Agility as you can participate in the Canifis Agility Course which has the best chance to find
Marks of Grace among in terms of requirements to start it.
Having 20 more
Agility levels above the required level of a Rooftop Agility Course will reduce the chance of finding
Marks of Grace by 20%.
