Sailing

BetaDiffers from OSRS

BLST's newest skill, in open beta. Sail your own boat, chart seas, trawl and fight at sea. Captain Tobias gives one free 99, once per account.

Open beta

Sailing is in open beta. Parts of it have not been tested in-game. Please report bugs.

Sailing is the 24th skill. You own a boat, take it across the sea, and earn XP from tasks, wrecks, fish and fights at sea.

Skip the grind

Captain Tobias at the Port Sarim docks gives you 99 Sailing once per account, in every game mode and XP mode, if you are below 99. You cannot use this twice, so choose your moment.

Boats are sold by shipwrights, who can also build upgrades such as hull, helm, keel, sails and facilities. Boats you left behind can be returned to a dock for a fee, or summoned with the spell.

How to train

  • Port tasks: deliver cargo between ports. XP depends on the task.
  • Sea charting: explore and chart locations for the charting NPCs, 358 tasks in all.
  • Shipwrecks: salvage them and sort the salvage. Sailing takes you to 30 wrecks.
  • Trawling: fish shoals with nets (56 Sailing and 69 Fishing).
  • Barracuda Trials: timed races at levels 30, 55 and 72.
  • Sea monsters: fight with cannons and earn bounty tasks.
  • Crew: hire crew at ports to help on board.

On BLST

  • XP uses your XP rate.
  • There is no quest chain: the related quests count as done when you log in.
  • Island teleports are in the Islands section of the teleport menu.
  • Charter ships give a ride if you do not have a boat, and Vyraxis the Obsidian Dragon lives on an island you can reach by boat.
