OSRS Grid Master Animal Wrangler Relic Guide
Animal Wrangler is one of the best early relics in Grid Master. It turns Fishing, Cooking, and Hunter into easy, nonstop XP gains that basically run themselves once unlocked. Here’s how to get it and how to use it for maximum efficiency.
How to Unlock Animal Wrangler
You can unlock Animal Wrangler in two ways. The first is right after finishing the Grid Master tutorial, where you choose between Power Miner, Lumberjack, or Animal Wrangler. The second method is by completing tasks tied to chopping maple logs or mining gold ore.
Starting with Power Miner or Lumberjack first is usually smarter since both help you unlock the others faster. Once you’ve mined gold or chopped maple logs, you’ll gain access to Animal Wrangler automatically, giving you its relic and skill bonuses.
Echo Harpoon Benefits Explained
Animal Wrangler gives the Echo Harpoon, which completely upgrades how Fishing and Cooking work. The relic automatically handles catching, cooking, and banking while giving extra XP.
Here’s what it does:
50 percent chance to succeed even after a failed Fishing attempt
Fish are automatically sent to your bank
50 percent chance to instantly cook fish, granting Cooking XP
Works one tick faster while Fishing
Replaces any net, rod, lobster pot, or harpoon
You’ll also never burn food again. Every catch turns into free XP, and you can AFK without worrying about wasted inventory space or failed attempts.
Hunter Bonuses with Animal Wrangler
Animal Wrangler doesn’t stop at Fishing and Cooking. It also makes Hunter one of the fastest and smoothest skills in Grid Master.
With the relic unlocked, you get:
100 percent success on catches
Faster box traps for chinchompas
Double chinchompa spawns and double XP
Impling jars that never break
This makes Hunter training incredibly quick. You’ll catch chinchompas twice as often and always get XP, which stacks well with the event’s global XP boosts.
Training Routes and Relic Pairing
Animal Wrangler works perfectly with relics like Golden God and Production Prodigy. Together, they let you chain XP gains across multiple skills with almost no effort.
Suggested training flow:
Fish anywhere to gain Fishing and Cooking XP passively
Alch cooked fish with Golden God for Magic XP
Switch to chinchompas when you want fast Hunter XP
Combine Production Prodigy to cook or craft instantly using gathered materials
This setup turns Animal Wrangler into a triple-skill relic that fuels your grid progress from start to finish.
Tips for Maximum XP
Grid Master’s boosted tick rates make Animal Wrangler even stronger. Since failed catches still have a success chance, you’re always gaining XP without downtime.
For optimal results:
Fish near areas with altars or banks to multitask XP
Alch while Fishing for constant Magic XP
Save cooked fish for Cooking-related grid tasks
Rotate between Fishing and Hunter to avoid burnout and maximize XP flow
Because everything stacks automatically, you’ll make fast progress even while multitasking or idling.
Final Blurb
Animal Wrangler is one of the most efficient relics in Grid Master, offering endless XP with almost no setup. Between the Echo Harpoon’s passive cooking and the doubled chinchompas, you can train three major skills while barely lifting a finger.
Unlock it early, pair it with Production Prodigy, and you’ll breeze through Fishing, Cooking, and Hunter in no time.
