How much does Agility really affect running?

[Juggles]

I know agility makes you regain running faster but im not sure how much of an effect it really has.

Would getting 50 agility on an account that bots something with lots of running make a big difference?

I tried googling it but couldn't find any results.

yes 

 

At level 1 agility, run energy recharges at approximately 1 percent per 7.5 seconds whereas at level 50 agility, the rate is 1 energy per 4 seconds. This bonus is also applied in F2P worlds. Higher Agility levels may also allow you to avoid the damage taken when caught pickpocketing.

Interesting, didn't know about the thieving perk

I really thing it depends on what your goals are for the account. If it is a long term goal to level the account and actually play it, I would highly suggest getting 80+ agi first, partially through barbarian fishing and partially through rooftop courses. However, if it merely a throw away account or an account your just purely going to use for botting purposes/money making, I wouldn't waste the time. I can say that I have 86 agi on my main and it does make a significant difference. You probably spend a quarter of the time walking that you normally would if you have full graceful and 80+ agi. And it is nice for all the short cuts in runescape. A lot of people take them for granted, but you can navigate the map so much easier utilizing agi short cuts. Just my two cents.
