The following changed was made today:
The Escape and Surge abilities now require 30 Agility instead of 30 Ranged and Magic respectively, so that movement abilities do not require combat skills.
As a result F2P can no longer utilize this ability since Agility is a members skill.
External link →Hi, thanks for your feedback. I've had a chat with the combat council, and we agreed to lower the Agility req for Dive, Escape and Surge to 5, so it's within the F2P skill cap. Fix is implemented and undergoing QA testing.
Does it mean as a F2P, I can level up this skill to 5? New to the game so not sure how it works.
Welcome to RuneScape! :D
Yes, F2P can level member skills to 5 (20 for Archaeology), to get a 'free sample' of the skill. Member skills are lowered to this cap on F2P worlds.
You earn Agility XP mostly by running laps of Agility courses. F2P have access to the agility course in the north-east corner of Burthorpe. Click the next obstacle you can reach on a course to progress.
Here's more info from the wonderfully comprehensive player-maintained RuneScape wiki: https://runescape.wiki/w/Agility https://runescape.wiki/w/Free-to-play https://runescape.wiki/w/Skills
Happy 'Scaping!
