Step 1
Log into a Quest Speedrunning World and you’ll be immediately prompted to select the quest you’d like to run via the Quest Speedrunning menu.
You’ll see the following data for the quest that you’ve selected:
- Current Speedrun Time.
- Personal Best Time.
- Global Best Time.
- Times required for each trophy (see Rewards section).
- Unlocks
- Unlocks are the stats, completed quests, travel, and other unlocks you’ll get when starting a speedrun. These unlocks are the same for everyone.
- Items
- This heading shows the items you’ll get when starting your chosen quest. Be aware that the items given are not necessarily the items required – for example, if the quest requires a dagger, you may be given a suitable pickaxe (or the money to buy one) to go mine some ore and smith it into the dagger you need.
After you’ve made your choice, the game will automatically adjust your stats to the recommended levels for the quest you’ve chosen and provide all the relevant items. This keeps things fair and ensures that everyone starts in the same place.
Step 2
The race will begin after you speak to the relevant NPC and begin the quest – after that point, the Speedrun Timer will be ticking, and you’ll be conveniently whisked away to the start point of your chosen quest. The timer will automatically stop once the quest is complete or when the speedrun is abandoned, which can be done at any time via the Speedrunning Menu. If things go wrong, you can also cancel your current adventure and start over from that same menu – convenient! Logging out will pause the timer but be aware that doing so will add a couple of seconds to your time to prevent logging out becoming a viable strategy.
Your current time is shown on the Speedrunning Menu and the Speedrunning Helper, which appears onscreen throughout the run and also displays the time required for the next trophy.
Step 3
Finished Speedrunning and ready for your reward? Head over to the NPC located by the Fountain in Varrock Square to find the Speedrunning Rewards Shop! Since they’re all untradeable, you’ll be able to reclaim any rewards you purchase should you accidentally lose them.
