Why do you hate Agility?

agility training for me just gets too dull. I am 75 agility and running round ape atoll is just dull. Most of my agility xp has come from getting 2k tickets in brimhaven - the course is lots of fun, but the xp is too low for my liking. I would love to have a high level agility arena (with the upper threshold for obstacles at, say, 65 or 70.

I love it because it requires little to no attention on my part, I can set up my laptop in front of the TV, or with space to do homework. And then just run around the wildy course over and over and over.

Defender2516 glad to see you on tip.it

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

( Ps. I'm 83 agility)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Well, agility is quite slow at higher levels. 50k an hour is not very fast. (When you are 80+). Remember that you need total focus on the screen, all the time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, its no challenge at all. And it is static. While in combat you might get an insane hit streak, or you might get hit 7 times in a row by a chicken. Agility is doing the same over and over without change. At level 75 you dont fail the monkey course anymore.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You might argue that woodcutting is static aswell. But when you are cutting a magic tree another person might show up and cut down your tree. In agility noone can interfear or affect your training with actions. You are alone, doing the same thing, without change.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No wonder it gets boring.

The title of this thread should be "Why do you LIKE Agility?"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That is the answer most people would like to have.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Agility is a never-ending series of clicking. You constantly have to pay attention to the screen, if you want to chat with someone, training stops.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For better or for worse, if I have to spend several hundred hours repetively training something, I want the luxury of being able to set it for a minute or so, and then go read a forum or something.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If all skills were like agility, and required that I pay attention to the screen 100% of the time and get carpal-tunnel in the process, I wouldn't have played Runescape for as long as I have. I would never have paid for membership, that's for sure, and would have quit long ago.

I hate running around in circles. I would rather see pretty red numbers then run around in circles.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Though irl running in circles is pretty fun... :oops:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That doesn't make any sense lol

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hate it because it's time consuming and a bit harder to raise than most skills

Hooked on Phonics works wonders.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyway, agility is just too boring. It's also carpal tunnel's best friend.

I don't hate it, but it's a bit slow.

Plus I think the whole teenage girl thing will end soon (hopefully), because my girlfriend is absolutely in love with him(she is 18), and im beginning to feel threatened by his [Justin Bieber] dashing looks.

What makes agility fun is racing friends. I personally like the advantages agility gives aka the shortcuts and the faster restore of your energy. It is especially good in f2p because you can outrun almost anyone there :D (especially good if you're running away from noobs or pkers)

Agility owns. Faster run recharge owns. Agility shortcuts own. The skill cape/emote own even harder :P .
Geez, already at 84! Ooh, pole dance for me Wakka. Then You'll have to go get Blue P-Hat with the best C Wars armour.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don't hate it, i don't like getting hurt, while watching Golv go past me 13 times (yes, I counted) while I didn't even do 1 run at the Monkey Agility Course..
