Lightweight armour

Many skills in Runescape can be done more efficiently when the player's weight is as low as possible, to reduce the rarte at ewhich run energy is used up, but still require some kind of defense. Runecrafting through the Abyss or at the Ourania Runecrafting Altar, training Agility at the Wilderness Agility Course, doing a Clue scroll, enchanting Unpowered orbs, and Penguin Hide and Seek are some examples where this is important.
