Avoiding Agility Brain-Freeze
For the longest time, I've considered Agility to be my least favorite Runescape skill to train (by far!). Mindlessly running laps in the Gnome Stronghold agility course and finally graduating to the Barbarian course to run that course over and over and over. With a goal of 50 agility in mind, I used the tip.it calculator to see what I was in for. 440 more laps to go.. While that might not seem like much, anybody who's run there for any length of time surely knows what sort of toture that is.
Desperate, I decided to give the Brimhaven arena a try. I put on my trusty boots of lightness, grabbed 200 coins, and filled my inventory with cakes. I gloried to Karamja, ran west, and was at the dungeon in no time at all.
The course consists of a grid of platforms, each with a pillar at the center. The platforms are seperated by various agility obstacles. A flashing arrow will point to one of the platforms and the object is to get there and touch the pillar before time runs out. If you manage to do this two times in a row, you receive a ticket and continue to receive tickets for each consecutive success. If you miss one, you have to start over.
Some notes:
One needs at least 40 agility in order to traverse all of the obstacles in the arena.
You can take damage if you fail obstacles so be sure to bring food. You can die from the damage taken in this arena.
One of the obstacles involves darts that shoot out from a pillar. Avoid this at all costs!! The obstacle is difficult to traverse and when you fail, you lose agility points for a period of time.
The best thing about this arena is the tickets. You can turn your tickets in for herbs or experience. I saved up 100 tickets and exchanged them for around 26k agility experience!
Finally, best of all, training agility in Brimhaven is actually fun and that's worth a lot to me.
