To reduce the number of prayer points used by active prayers, players can take advantage of various sources granting modifiers that reduce the prayer point cost of prayers and/or provide a chance to preserve all prayer points the prayer would have used.

The prayer point cost reduction modifiers can reduce the cost of prayers to a minimum of 1 point per prayer, the only exception to this being that protection prayers are free when the {{ItemIcon|Gold Diamond Ring}} is equipped. Any flat prayer point reductions are applied before any percentage reductions, therefore in some specific cases some flat cost reductions provide no benefit. For example, consider a scenario where prayers with an odd prayer point cost are active while both the {{ItemIcon|Prayer Skillcape}} and {{ItemIcon|Priest Hat}} are equipped - in such a case, the Prayer Skillcape reduces the cost to 2 points regardless of whether the Priest Hat is equipped or not.

The chance to preserve prayer points provides a chance that active prayers will be used for free. The highest possible chance to preserve is currently 78% without {{Skill|Astrology}} constellations, or up to 93% should the player manage to roll +5% chance to preserve prayer points on all three unique modifier stars within the {{Icon|type=constellation|Hyden}} constellation.
