Rapid is a Smithing and Firemaking perk which has a 5% chance per rank to speed up an action by a game tick (0.6 seconds). This perk stacks additively with Varrock armour 2 or higher when smithing, but they both can't activate at the same time to stack speed times. It can be created in tool gizmos.

When the perk triggers, it prompts the message: Your rapid perk speeds up the action process.
