Agility is a members support skill which gives access to various shortcuts around RuneScape, though free-to-play players can train the skill up to level 5. More shortcuts become accessible as the player's Agility level increases. A higher Agility level also causes the player's energy to recharge quicker naturally, when resting, and when listening to a musician. The main way to gain experience in Agility is for the player to complete an agility course. Agility courses are loops of simple obstacles. The themes and levels required to use a training course are highly varied. Agility was released on 12 December 2002. The current minimum requirement to be ranked (at approximately rank 862,964) on the HiScores for Agility is level 15. As of 06 April 2025, there are 205,267 active players that have achieved level 99 in Agility. There are 29,544 active players that have achieved level 120 in Agility.

Useful equipment

Using food

Many agility activities can not be failed and do not damage the player. Food is only required for certain activities or as a precaution. On courses that can damage the player, it is often worthwhile to keep the amount of life points fairly low because the amount of damage taken after failing an obstacle is based on the player's remaining life points.

Agility courses

The player's Agility level is increased mainly by completing laps around agility training courses. The training courses are identified with a running figure () on the map. Most courses and obstacles are themed to the surrounding area. Many of the courses have an Agility level requirement and some also require other levels or quests before they are accessible. Some courses have obstacles that can only be traversed at higher levels and sometimes advanced versions of the course are offered for higher level players. For each course, a set amount of Agility experience is gained per obstacle completed. Typically, players are rewarded with an additional larger amount of Agility experience for completing the lap in full without failing any obstacles. In some cases, this bonus reward makes up the majority of the experience gained for running a lap of the course.

The advanced Gnome Stronghold Agility Course begins at the same location as the regular Gnome Stronghold Agility Course. Players with level 85 Agility or above can gain access to this path in the course. The benefit of completing the course using the advanced path is a higher experience gain and the ability to earn Agility weight-reducing equipment, agile legs, as a reward for completing the course 250 times without failing. Boosts such as a summer pie can be used to gain access to the advanced path in order to obtain the agile armour at a lower level. The signpost run can be failed, but after level 89 Agility, no obstacles will be failed. With few misclicks and no delays, this course takes about 40 seconds to complete which yields roughly 65,000 experience per hour.

Brimhaven Agility Arena

Main article: Brimhaven Agility Arena

Brimhaven Agility Arena

The course is located underground in the north-eastern section of Brimhaven. The Brimhaven Agility Arena has no level requirements to use. However, players are charged 200 coins to enter each visit. The course is free after completion of the Rocking Out quest. This training method differs from a typical course because instead of a loop of obstacles, players must tag pillars marked with flashing arrows. Obstacles stand between the pillars which slow the player's movement around the arena. Successful consecutive tags earn the player tickets which are redeemable for prizes such as experience. The marked pillar changes every minute. This means players can gain a maximum of 60 tickets per hour which, when redeemed for experience, gains the player roughly 20,000 experience per hour.

Agility Pyramid

Main article: Agility Pyramid

Agility Pyramid

The Agility Pyramid is located in the Kharidian Desert and requires at least level 30 Agility to begin. Players complete this course by climbing over obstacles to reach the top of the pyramid before sliding down. While this agility training spot is arranged in a repeatable loop, it also offers players the secondary task of retrieving an artefact from the top which can be sold to the nearby Simon Templeton for 1,000 coins. Because this course is located in the desert, players will face desert heat and must bring a water source with them, such as an enchanted water tiara. Obstacles can be failed on this course. With no failures, this course takes about 160 seconds to complete, yielding roughly 27,000 experience per hour.

Advanced Barbarian Outpost Agility Course

Main article: Barbarian Outpost Agility Course § Advanced course

The Advanced Barbarian Outpost Agility Course begins at the same location as the regular Barbarian Outpost Agility Course. However, instead of climbing the obstacle net, the player runs-up the wall to the left. Players with level 90 Agility or above can gain access to this path in the course. The benefit of completing the course using the advanced path is a higher experience gain and the ability to earn Agility weight-reducing equipment, agile top, as a reward for completing the course 250 times without failing. Boosts such as a summer pie can be used to gain access to the advanced path in order to obtain the agile armour at a lower level. Obstacles can be failed, but after level 92 Agility, no obstacles will be failed.

Hefin Agility Course

Main article: Hefin Agility Course

This lap-based agility course can be found in the Hefin Clan district of the elf city, Prifddinas. It requires level 77 Agility and completion of the quest Plague's End. Obstacles on this course can never be failed. This course features two shortcuts which are periodically available to the player and allow for quicker lap times. A unique feature of the course is the build up of velocity while completing obstacles. When a player's velocity bar is filled following the completion of an obstacle, the player will automatically begin the next obstacle, draining the entire bar. For each completed lap, there is a chance of receiving a reward from the light creature at the end of the course. With few misclicks and no delays, this course takes about 44 seconds to complete, yielding roughly 58,000–109,000 experience per hour depending on the player's Agility level. The parentheses in the table below indicate experience gains when the Voice of Seren is active in the Hefin district.

Level	Obstacles (×6)	Lap bonus	Total experience	Hourly experience

Dorgesh-Kaan Agility Course

Main article: Dorgesh-Kaan Agility Course

The Dorgesh-Kaan Agility Course requires level 80 Agility, completion of the quest Death to the Dorgeshuun, and a light source. The basic premise of the course is to cross obstacles using one of two routes to get to an item requested by the goblin Turgall. Once the item is obtained, either path can be used to return to Turgall, who will bestow an experience bonus depending on which route the player used to depart and return. The longer of the two routes gives the player more Agility experience. The shorter of the two routes gives less Agility experience and requires a mithril grapple, a crossbow, and level 80 Strength and 80 Ranged. With few misclicks and no delays, this course takes about 160 seconds to complete, yielding roughly 53,000 experience per hour.

Route	Seconds	Experience
Agility Route (×2)	160	2,375
Agility Route (×1), Grapple Route (×1)	150	1,444
Grapple Route (×2)	110	108

Anachronia Agility Course

Main article: Anachronia Agility Course

The Anachronia Agility Course is one of the primary ways of getting around Anachronia, requiring Agility levels from 30 to 85 to traverse. The course is divided into seven sections of varying difficulty. Each obstacle provides 20 Agility experience. Completing the entire circuit around the island of seven sections will yield a total of 20,040 experience. Players can travel through the course starting at any obstacle, but they must traverse every obstacle in a row to qualify for the full lap bonus. There is a small chance to fail an obstacle, which will deal 5% of current health as damage, but the obstacle will not have to be repeated. Due to how spread out some of the obstacles are, there are white markings on signs and obstacles to help determine the path to take.

Agility activities

Gnome Ball

Main article: Gnome Ball

Gnome Ball is a small members-only minigame located in the north-west section of the Tree Gnome Stronghold. There are no requirements to participate.

Players can make a penguin suit on a crafting table 3 in the workshop of a player-owned house after completing the quest Cold War. This requires a steel bar, piece of silk, and a plank. These can be wound and released on the ground. Catching it will then give the player 12.5 Agility experience even if unsuccessful. Unsuccessful catches will cause the suit to teleport away and it cannot be retrieved.

To gain entrance, players must have completed the Creature of Fenkenstrain quest and be wearing a ring of charos. To play, talk to the Skullball Boss at the start of the course. Then, kick the skullball through a course of 10 obstacles by right clicking it and selecting how far you want to kick it. A tap advances the ball 1 space, a kick is 4 spaces, and shoot is 10 spaces. Players are rewarded 900 Agility experience for completing the last obstacle. If players need longer than 4 minutes, this reward is reduced to 750 experience.

Blast Furnace

Main article: Blast Furnace

The Blast Furnace is a minigame found in Keldagrim which is used to smelt ores as a team with other players. The facility requires one of the team members to operate a belt to transport ores into the furnace. This role gives 2 Agility experience each second. This requires level 30 Agility.

Barbarian Fishing

Main article: Barbarian Fishing

By catching leaping trout, leaping salmon, or leaping sturgeon near the Baxtorian Falls, players will receive 5–7 Agility experience for each fish caught, depending on the type of fish. This requires at least level 15 Agility, 15 Strength, and 48 Fishing.

This requires completion of the quest Lunar Diplomacy and at least level 70 Magic, 60 Agility, 60 Crafting, 60 Farming, and 50 Construction.

Manual Auto-cycle

Main article: Manual Auto-cycle

Cycling on an Auto-cycle requires level 65 Agility (cannot be boosted), and gives Agility experience every 1.8 seconds. This 3.8 experience at a time is received normally, but this amount is ten times higher (38.2 experience) if using an empowered Auto-cycle. After players have reached the cap of 800,000 experience, they can no longer gain Agility XP from it.

Serenity posts

Main article: Serenity posts

Serenity posts are located in the Hefin Clan district of the elf city, Prifddinas. Access to this activity requires level 75 Agility and completion of the quest Plague's End.

More experience is earned if the pose matches the pose set by Lady Hefin.

Skill benefits

Players gain benefits in other skills by having a high Agility level.

Fishing

A high agility level gives a small chance to catch two tuna, swordfish, or sharks instead of one when Fishing. There's no additional experience when this occurs. The requirement to catch two are: 35 for tuna, 50 for swordfish, and 76 for sharks. This ability does not work for Baron sharks.

Thieving

A high agility level gives a chance to pickpocket double, triple, or even quadruple the usual amount of loot when Thieving. There's no additional experience when this occurs.

For the chance to pickpocket double the standard loot:

• Each Agility level gained decreases the time it takes to fully regenerate Energy from 0% too 100% by about 0.2 seconds, or one half of one game tick. The regeneration time is 1 minute and 15 seconds at 1 Agility, and decreases to 55 seconds at 99 Agility, or a 20 second decrease.
