[[File:RestButton.gif|frame|The run button glows when resting.]]

The '''Rest''' feature allows players to regenerate their [[energy]] more quickly. At any time, players can right-click the run button next to the [[minimap]] and select "Rest" from the menu. While resting, players sit down in a relaxed stance; [[Energy]] and [[Life points]] will regenerate far quicker. At [[agility]] level 1, run energy will regenerate at 2.8 Energy per second when resting as opposed to 0.44 energy per second when not. 2 Life Point will regenerate every 6 seconds, as opposed to the normal 1 Life Point per 6 seconds. This effect '''does''' stack with the [[rapid heal]] prayer, however the stacking works as such: resting and the prayer each add one life point regenerated every 6 seconds, so that if a player activates rapid heal and rests, they gain 3 life points every 6 seconds.

You are not able to rest while you are [[Poison|poisoned]], [[Disease|diseased]], [[Combat|being attacked]], holding a banner, or in the form of a [[Monkey Greegrees|monkey]], [[goblin potion|goblin]] or a [[Clockwork suit|penguin]]. Additionally, the resting ability does '''not''' give you immunity to the attacks of other players or NPCs.

This feature was released in the [[Update:Run energy upgrade|run energy upgrade]] of 9 June 2009{{CiteGeneral | url = http://news.runescape.com/newsitem.ws?id=1921 | title = Run energy upgrade | accessdate = 2009-06-09 | author = [[Jagex Moderator|Mod Fetzki]] | date = 2009-06-09 | work = RuneScape News List | publisher = Jagex Ltd | location = United Kingdom | quote = You can now sit down and rest anywhere by right-clicking on the run button, which will recharge your run energy (and Hitpoints) much faster (the musicians located at various places around Gielinor provide even faster recharge rates).}}.

When listening to a [[Musician]], energy and life points will regenerate even more quickly. At agility level 1, resting near a musician regenerates energy at 3.8 energy per second instead of 2.8 when resting normally or 0.44 when not resting at all. If the player toggles the run option on or off while resting, the in-game [[music]] will switch to a different track.{{Clear}}

==History==
[[File:SittingPositions.png|left|thumb|181px|The three positions for resting. The one on the right is for females only.]]
The button originally appeared in the 25 March 2009 [[system update]] along with an option to '''Turn run mode on/off.''' When selected, the message "Coming Soon..." appeared in the text box.

Jagex stated on the [[RuneScape Forums]] that the rest option would not be linked to [[fatigue]] or [[sleeping bags]].{{CiteGeneral|url=http://forum.runescape.com/forums.ws?15,16,379,58584903|title=Jagex's thread regarding the rest option}}

On the 19 March 2009, Jagex created a RuneScape account on [[Wikipedia:Facebook|Facebook]]. One of the pictures added shows a player battling [[Chronozon]], and a message in the [[chat box]] that reads, 'You feel much better after a quick rest,' undoubtedly a reference to the rest feature. This shows the Rest button will have some kind of restoring properties.{{CiteGeneral|url=http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v2425/244/89/59261801728/n59261801728_2223167_2227288.jpg|title=Picture from Jagex's Facebook account}}

On [[1 April]] [[2009]] the "Rest" option was removed. That same day in the [[RuneScape Forums]], Mod Ash posted "The Rest option is coming soon. I'm not sure exactly when. Until it does finally come, there's no real need to leave it sitting there doing nothing." {{CiteGeneral|url=http://forum.runescape.com/forums.ws?15,16,789,58610510,goto,1|title=Jagex mod post regarding the rest option}}

On 23 April, Jagex released a development diary stating that the "rest" feature was a mistake. The diary also states that the rest feature will centre on "[[buskers]]", musician NPCs who play their instruments.{{CiteGeneral|url=http://www.runescape.com/l=0/kbase/view.ws?guid=diary_runenergy|title=Development Diary regarding the rest option}}

On 9 June 2009, [[Update:Run energy upgrade|the rest option was released]].

==Rest feature glitch==
{{main|9 June 2009 game engine update glitch}}
The rest update, while extremely popular, had many unexpected side effects and caused crippling glitches to the game for the first day after its release, causing angry reactions by players who found that the glitches interfered with their gameplay.

==Zen Resting==
{{main|Zen Resting}}
[[File:Zen_Resting_emote.gif|frame|A player resting with the Zen Resting activated.]]
Zen Resting was released on [[21 August]] [[2012]] with the update: [[Update:New to Solomon’s General Store: Introducing...Skill-Fu!]]. When activated via the customization screen, you'll be able to use the Zen Resting when resting.

There is also a minor graphical glitch, where if a player is wearing a skillcape, the skillcape will dissappear, but not the tassles at the front of the cape.

The animation will not activate if a character is wearing any of the athlete's legs.

==Trivia==
* If you try to do an emote while resting a message will come up saying "Emotes aren't very restful.".
*If you rest while in a few squares of a musican, your body will turn to the musican and you will listen to him/her from a distance.
*Before a fixing update, you could rest while banking
