Old School RuneScape (OSRS)

Grid Master points control your entire progression. Every relic, tile, and mastery unlock depends on them, and the faster you earn points, the faster your account snowballs through the event.

How Grid Master Points Work

Points come from completing grid tiles tied to skills, quests, and bosses. Each tile gives a fixed amount of points based on difficulty, and finishing full rows or columns gives milestone bonuses that can unlock relics or Combat Masteries.

Your points are shared across the account, so if you reset or change relic paths, your total stays the same. That means early progress always counts toward your long-term grind.

Best Sources of Grid Master Points

The fastest and most reliable point sources include:

  • Completing auto-finished quests like Dragon Slayer II, Song of the Elves, and Beneath Cursed Sands

  • Killing grid milestone bosses such as Bryophyta, Scurrius, and Kalphite Queen

  • Leveling key skills tied to grid objectives around 70 to 80+

  • Unlocking major relics like Golden God, Dodgy Deals, and Banker’s Note

  • Clearing activities such as Fight Caves, Tempoross, and Corrupted Gauntlet for big one-time rewards

The grid favors spreading progress early, so it’s better to unlock multiple relic paths instead of maxing a single skill too soon.

Early Point Farming Tips

In the first few hours, focus on fast, low-effort tasks. Simple quests, early gathering levels, and your first boss kill can unlock your first major relic within a few hours.

A strong early route looks like this:

  • Thieve a fruit stall to unlock Dodgy Deals

  • Chop maple logs for the Lumberjack relic if you chose that path

  • Kill Scurrius for a boss tile and Combat Mastery progress

  • Complete Stronghold of Security and defeat Bryophyta for a quick point boost

That setup alone usually unlocks your first relic and gives enough grid reach to open new zones.

Late Game Point Grinding

At higher levels, completing full rows and columns becomes the main point source. Rows 3 and 5 and columns 3 and 5 tie directly to mastery unlocks and total level milestones.

Endgame activities like Fight Caves, Raids, and Corrupted Gauntlet give the biggest single rewards. Saving them until your relics and stats are maxed makes those completions much easier and more profitable.

Smart Grid Pathing

Instead of bouncing between random tiles, aim to finish full rows and columns. Each complete line gives a huge point bonus, global buffs, and often a new mastery tier.

If a skill requirement is slowing you down, link it to a faster XP relic. For example, pairing Crafting or Herblore with Thieving can power-level both while earning more tiles.

Final Blurb

Grid Master points decide everything from relic unlocks to mastery speed. Rushing easy tiles early builds momentum, while later completions push you into max-tier boosts. Keep your grid organized, complete rows and columns efficiently, and you’ll hit every milestone without ever running out of rewards.
