OSRS Grid Master Free XP Guide | Claiming Free XP
Grid Master throws plenty of tough grinds at you, but a few hidden rewards give free XP without lifting a finger. These are the easiest ways to stack experience early and save time for harder relic tasks later.
How to Get Free XP in Grid Master
Free XP in Gridmaster comes from claimable rewards, lamps, and event milestones. They don’t cost gold or materials, and most can be collected as soon as you meet simple requirements. The best part is that some scale with your XP multipliers, giving even bigger gains later in the run.
Ellen’s 100k Combat XP Reward
After hitting 75 Hunter, catch a sunlight moth north of the Hunter Guild, then talk to Ellen for 100k base combat XP. It’s an instant reward and one of the largest single chunks of free XP in the event.
You can boost to 75 if you’re short on levels. A Hunter potion or the Hunter beer from the guild basement both work fine. Since it’s base XP, any completed rows or columns on your grid make it scale even higher.
Varrock Museum Quiz Lamps
The Varrock Museum quiz still works in Grid Master and is a quick early task for free XP. Complete the Natural History Quiz downstairs to earn two lamps.
Each lamp gives a small chunk of XP to any skill over level 20. Use them on early Agility or Runecraft since both start slow and have no easy boosts early on.
Wise Old Man Prayer XP
After you clear Barrows, visit the Wise Old Man in Draynor Village. He gives a small Prayer XP reward that’s easy to forget about. Grab it before moving on since Prayer affects later combat relics and boss setups.
Total Level Milestone Lamps
You get two lamps during your run for hitting key total levels. These are the biggest repeatable free XP sources outside Ellen’s reward.
25,000 XP lamp unlocked at 500 total level
100,000 XP lamp unlocked at 1,500 total level
Each lamp can be used on any skill you want. They don’t scale with relics or multipliers, so use them smartly on the slowest or most expensive skills.
Best Skills to Use Lamps On
Runecraft for slow XP and limited relic support
Agility since it’s time gated by course completions
Herblore for skipping ingredient collection
Construction when gold is tight before Golden God
Avoid fast or cheap skills like Cooking or Fletching since they level up naturally through gameplay.
Other Free XP Sources
There are a few smaller rewards worth claiming if you pass them during your route.
Daero’s combat XP after Monkey Madness, if you didn’t auto-complete it
Varrock Museum information clerk XP claim
Dragon Slayer II and Song of the Elves completion lamps
Combat Achievement lamps after Grandmaster tasks
Each one adds a small boost that stacks up over time. They’re not game changers, but skipping them leaves free XP on the table.
Final Blurb
Free XP in OSRS Grid Master doesn’t sound like much, but it adds up fast. Ellen’s moth reward and milestone lamps give hundreds of thousands of XP without training. Stack them with small NPC rewards and you’ll push multiple skills ahead without wasting a single resource. Collect every one as you unlock relics and watch your levels jump long before the real grind begins.
