OSRS Grid Master Runecrafting Training Guide
Starting Runecrafting in Grid Master feels slow, but there are a few simple tricks to skip the grind. Lamps, relics, and the right altar setup make all the difference.
How to Begin Runecrafting in Grid Master
Use every free XP source first. Claim the Karamja Easy Diary lamp, complete Enter the Abyss, and finish Temple of the Eye before it auto-completes. These instantly boost your levels and unlock altars for faster XP.
If you linked Runecrafting to Construction, you can abuse the Golden God relic for massive XP boosts. If not, use lamps (including these xp lamps) and Tears of Guthix to reach level 30 fast.
Easiest Way to Train RC Early
Mine pure essence or get it from Zulrah. Kill an Air Mage for a talisman if you need one, then take your essence to an altar. Use the Banker’s Note relic to unnote essence right at the altar and skip banking.
Once you unlock ZMI, switch to it immediately. It gives the highest XP rate per essence and doesn’t need specific runes. You can go from level 30 to 99 just sitting there with Banker’s Note active.
Best Runecrafting XP Methods
Temple of the Eye and Enter the Abyss for early XP
ZMI altar for main training after level 30
Lamps and Tears of Guthix for fast early levels
Banker’s Note for endless crafting loops
Link Runecrafting with Construction for extra XP through relics
Optional Training Paths
If Runecrafting feels pointless, you can skip it until later. It only matters for a few total level tiles and isn’t required for relic unlocks. Players chasing full grid completion usually leave it for last or power it through lamps.
Final Blurb
Runecrafting in Grid Master looks rough, but the right setup makes it painless. Stack lamps, use ZMI, and keep Banker’s Note running. Once it’s linked or leveled, you’ll never have to think about the skill again.
