The Dwarf Multicannon turns Ranged training in Old School RuneScape into a semi-AFK grind — set it up in a packed multicombat area and let it rack up XP while you do other things. Here are the best AFK cannon spots in 2026, from early-game to high-level.
Best overall: Lighthouse Dagannoths
The basement of the Lighthouse (after Horror from the Deep) is the top semi-AFK cannon spot, offering around 130,000 Ranged XP/hour with 80+ Ranged. Dagannoths pack tightly into the multi zone, keeping your cannon constantly firing.
Best for new accounts: Rock Crabs (Rellekka)
Just north of Rellekka, the Rock Crabs multicombat area gives 60,000-80,000 XP/hour and is perfect right after the Dwarf Cannon quest — low requirements and very forgiving.
Great mid-level: Ogres (Combat Training Camp / Castle Wars)
Cannoning Ogres near Castle Wars or in the Combat Training Camp yields roughly 60,000-100,000 XP/hour with high HP targets that soak cannonballs efficiently.
Profit + XP: Cave Horrors
Cave Horrors (58 Slayer, Mos Le’Harmless) drop black masks, which can offset — or beat — your cannonball costs while you train, making this a rare profitable cannon spot.
Cannon training tips
- Always cannon in multicombat zones so it hits everything around you.
- Bring extra cannonballs — at these rates you’ll burn through them fast.
- Cannonball cost is the main expense; Cave Horrors help offset it with drops.
