OSRS Agility Training Guide: 1-99 Fastest Rooftop Courses

OSRS Agility Training Guide: 1-99 Fastest Rooftop Courses

Agility is an important skill in OSRS. Players with certain agility levels have access to shortcuts and areas around RuneScape that would be inaccessible otherwise. It also allows for faster run energy restoration. Training agility requires a lot of attention to get optimal experience rates and does not cost the player any GP unless they want to get the fastest rates by using stamina potions to maintain their run energy, which will cost a decent amount in the long run.


Useful Unlocks

Graceful Outfit

The Graceful outfit is a weight-reducing gear. When the full graceful outfit is worn, it increases the rate of restoration of run energy by up to 30%. The full set can be bought from Grace’s Graceful clothing found in the Rogues’ Den beneath the Toad and Chicken in Burthope for 260 marks of grace. 

Graceful Outfit

This outfit is quite useful when training agility as it allows players to run for longer, therefore improving their experience rates. Although the graceful has no requirement, the experience gained from doing rooftop agility courses will get the player to at least 53 agility before the required 260 marks of grace can be obtained, assuming only rooftop courses are done from the start. Doing quests to skip early agility levels before doing agility rooftop courses will get the player to at least 56 agility before the required marks of grace can be obtained.


Fastest Methods of Training Agility


Questing: Level 1–33

quests that give agility experience

Like most skills, completing quests is the fastest method to skip the early levels. Players should complete the quests below as they have low requirements and offer the fastest agility experience rates when starting:


  • questsTourist Trap: This requires 10 fletching, 20 smithing, and the ability to kill a level 47 enemy. It rewards players with 2 lots of 4,650 experience which can be used in agility, fletching, smithing, or thieving. Both rewards should be used to get agility experience. This will get you from 1-26 agility immediately. 
  • questsThe Grand Tree: this requires 25 agility and decent combat stats to defeat a level 172 black demon. The black demon can be safespotted and killed easily medium ranged or magic stats. This rewards 7900 agility experience. 


Completion of these quests grants the player a total of 17,200 agility experience, which takes the player from level 1 to level 32 agility.


Brimhaven Agility Arena: Level 32–47

The Brimhaven agility arena is an agility minigame located beneath the Brimhaven. It offers the fastest agility experience rates between levels 33 to 47 agility. This course is quite different from regular agility courses, it comprises 25 pillars with adjacent pillars connected through agility obstacles and 24 of these pillars contain a ticket dispenser; Players are given objectives to tag ticket dispensers for agility experience, and they can only do this by traversing through agility obstacles in the course as fast as possible. One ticket will be awarded for every ticket dispenser tagged.


Requirements of the Brimhaven Agility Arena

  • 200 coins: this is the entry fee for the course
  • An agility level of at least 20 is recommended to increase the success rate when passing the traps in the arena.
  • Food as you will fail traps which will cause some damage


Experience rates at the Brimhaven Agility Arena

Players can gain up to 30,000 agility experience per hour at level 20, which increases up to 67,000 experience per hour as they approach 99 agility. It will take approximately 2 hours to get level 47 from level 33 agility.


Wilderness Agility Course: Level 47-62

Wilderness Agility Coursep

The Wilderness Agility Course is an agility training area found in the wilderness. Training agility in this course is dangerous as it is a singles-plus combat area and allows PKers to attack you at any time, so players are advised to only bring items that they are willing to lose. The course can be completed without any risk or with paid access to the agility dispenser. This costs 150,000 coins and rewards the player with valuable loot after each lap, but the coins are lost anytime the player dies or leaves the course. However, the coins are safe if the player decides to log out while they are on the course.


Requirement of the Wilderness Agility Course

Level 52 agility: Players can still train agility in this course at level 47 by using a summer pie to boost their agility level.


Experience rates of the Wilderness Agility Course

Players can get between 50,000 to 60,000 experience per hour. Players who pay the 150,000 coin fee will get access to the dispenser which will reward them an approximate 50/50 split of alchables and blighted items which can be sold or used by the player. It would take the player approximately 5 hours to get to 62 agility when training on this course at full efficiency. 


Hallowed Sepulchre: Level 62–99

Hallowed Sepulchre


No doubt, Hallowed Sepulchre offers the fastest agility experience from level 62 agility to 99. This method of training requires good practice, timing, and focus to get the optimal experience rates. It is found in the ancient Saradominist burial ground of the city of Hallowvale which is found beneath the Darkmeyer. There are five floors in the Hallowed Sepulchre, each requiring a different agility level to access. Players need to loot coffins on each floor which provide useful loot, these coffins can only be found after the player has evaded a series of traps that increase in difficulty on every floor. 


Requirements of the Hallowed Sepulchre

  • 52 agility: although this is the required level to do the Hallowed Sepulchre, it only gives access to the first floor, which offers lower agility experience rates than the wilderness agility course.

Here are the agility requirements for each room:


  • Floor 2: 62 agility
  • Floor 3: 72 agility
  • Floor 4: 82 agility

  • At 62 agility, players should expect 56,000 experience per hour when training agility up until floor 2 
  • At 72 agility, players should expect 66,700 experience per hour when training agility up until floor 3
  • At 82 agility, players should expect 76,000 experience per hour when training agility up until floor 4
  • At 92 agility, players should expect 98,500 experience per hour when training agility up until floor 5

Agility Rooftop Courses

Players can start to do agility rooftops from level 1 agility. Agility rooftop courses are a very popular method of training agility because players get marks of grace while training on them. They are also very easy to do and require little attention to get optimal experience rates. Agility rooftop courses are located in different areas in RuneScape, but they all have similar mechanics. The fail rate on any agility rooftop course reduces as your agility level increases relative to the agility level required to use the course.

Werewolf Agility Course

The Werewolf agility course is an agility course located near Canifis. It requires a lot of attention similar to the Hallowed Sepulchre but offers significantly lower experience rates.

Requirements of the Werewolf Agility Course

  • 60 agility: Summer pies can be used at level 55 to boost a player’s agility level and gain access to this course.
  • Completion of the Creature of Fenkenstrain Quest


Experience Rates at the Werewolf Agility Course

The Werewolf agility course rewards the player with 730 agility experience per lap. At level 70 and above, an average time of 38 seconds is required to complete a lap, so players should expect 68,500 agility experience per hour when paying full attention. At lower levels, players can only get between 60,000 to 65,000 agility experience per hour.


Ape Atoll Agility Course

Ape Atoll Agility Course

Players looking for a less click-intensive alternative should train at the Ape Atoll agility course, as they can get decent experience rates without 100% attention. The Ape Atoll Agility course is an agility training area located near the Marim. It consists of six obstacles, The player has to transverse through these obstacles and if the obstacles are passed in the correct order, some bonus experience will be given to the player.


Requirements Of the Ape Atoll Agility Course

  • 48 agility: Boosted agility levels will not work
  • Partial completion of the Monkey Madness I
  • The Ninja or Kruk Monkey Greegree: attempting to use this course without any of these will result in the player failing the cause and taking damage as a result.

Experience Rates in the Ape Atoll Agility Course

The success rate when training at the Ape Atoll agility course improves as the player’s agility level increases, which also increases the player’s experience rates. At lower agility levels, a player can only get around 40,000 to 45,000 agility experience per hour At above level 75 agility, players can complete a maximum of 95 laps per hour which nets them around 55,100 agility experience per hour.
