Runescape Game Play

I am just hanging on in the top 1k for agility, about 780 if I remember correctly.

For some reason people don't like agility, it is quick and easy to train but can be a bit boring.

Brimhaven is close to being the best for xp, over all for playability it is without doubt the easiest, I would not be 86 agility if it wasn't for Brimhaven, In fact I would probably still be the same agility level as the people who say Brimhaven is crap.

To get the most out of Brimhaven you need to collect 1k tickets before you trade in click here for my Brimhaven guide.

Another option although an option I have never tried is to build clockwork mice, wind them up and release them, apparently you get 15 xp every time you wind them up and release, its probably a good idea to do it in a small room in your house so no one pinches them.

The next best route for agility as regards time is the Wildy course, there are many dangers here and there is a good chance of your training session being cut short this will slow your leveling down considerably.

Ape Atol is a longer route so will take longer than the wildy but there is no risk of death from pkers so you can stay as long as you like, there is even a fishing spot to catch food if your health drops.

The warewolf course is good xp but I haven't trained there much so I am unable to comment to any extent.

The agility pyramid is good xp but you need food and waterskins and there is no bank nearby so I never trained there for long.

The penguin course, this is a waste of space unless you are very low agility give it a miss too slow.

And now the best route by far, the new goblin course, sorry you need to be at least 70 agility to use it, I would suggest 75 plus is recommended, the xp here is tremendous about 3k per lap using the agility route.

So a Summary for the best agility training.

If I was planning on my agility career again I would:-

1, 1 to 40 Gnome stronghold
2, 41 to 45 Barbarian outpost
3, 46 to 75 Brimhaven
4, 76 to 99 Underground Gnome course.

I would also use the other routes for a change but the above list would be the easiest and fastest.

People tend to hate agility, I am not really surprised so many people do not know how to train it effectively.

When done properly it is quick and fun to train, the first few levels are the worst as you can only go round and round a course to get agility up.

To start use the gnome stronghold course, this is very easy but does get a bit boring stay here until you can get into the barbarian outpost then stay there or use the gnome course for a change, continue until you get to level 37 agility, you may choose to get a bit higher level but I stopped at 37.

This is where the fun starts, grab a bag of cakes and 230gp, in the early stages take a teleport (This is not so important as you have the Lumbridge home teleport now). just in case you are out of food and cant get to the exit.

Only wear Boots of lightness, wearing anything else will cause you to fail many more obstacles, I wore a camel mask at level 70'ish agility and was being beaten to the post by lower agility level players without every time. wearing Boots of lightness helps you fail obstacles less.

Wearing this at any level will reduce your chances at getting tickets.

So you have your cakes and your 230gp 30gp to get across from Ardougne to Karamja and 200gp to get into the agility arena, you may also want to take some super energy pots in your early stages, agility pots only give you a small boost and wears off quickly, you will fall a lot to start with and will spend a lot of time running around the lava pit, your energy will soon run out and you will end up walking to get the next pillar.

You can not complete the spinning blade obstacle until you are 40 agility so you must avoid them until at least 40, also avoid the darts at any level (they reduce your effective agility level) I went down from level 65 to 40 in one attempt at getting past the darts.

The darts look cool but can seriously hinder your chances of making other obstacles if failed too often.

To last any length of time you need to be at low hp level, you should remain between 8 and 18 hp, you take less damage at low hp level and therefore your food will last longer, thats why you take cakes instead of fish so not to bring up your hp too much. this is not without its dangers you can get carried away trying to complete an obstacle and not notice your hp level getting dangerously low especially if others are trying at the same time, watch your hp you don't want to lose your hard earned tickets.

Loads of cakes and if you are a lower level agility player a few energy or super energy pots is ideal for a long stay the the Brimhaven agility arena.

Saving your tickets until you get 1k will make your agility level soar, not many people have the will power to do this, even trading in a few tickets at low levels will bring up some nice increases in agility levels making it easier when you go back.

People often say that the wilderness course is better when you can do it, my opinion is it is boring going round in circles, the only thing that makes it more interesting is when a pker comes along and give you a quick tele back to Fally.

It is nice for a change as is the werewolf course and Ape Atol but in my eyes is just too boring.

People often tell me that its a lot better at the wilderness course, I then ask them their agility level, after they tell me I say I would be too if it wasn't for Brimhaven, I am 81 agility at time of writing and I am in the top 1k agility level in the Runescape high scores.
