Prayer

Prayer is a Combat skill that provides passive bonuses at the expense of prayer points. Prayer points can be gained by burying bones from the Bank. Killing monsters while wearing the Bone Necklace will automatically bury bones and award twice the normal amount of prayer points. During Combat, a maximum of two prayers can be active at once. There is no limit to the amount of prayer points that the player can have. Raising Prayer to level 99 will unlock the Prayer Skillcape for purchase from the Shop.

0.2 Prayer experience is earned per point of damage for each prayer point spent per attack. This experience can be increased by 7% by equipping the Gold Emerald Ring, which is multiplicative with the 1% increase from Pyro and 5% from Firemaking Skillcape for a maximum increase of 13.42%.

Bones

Bones can be acquired by killing Monsters that are not in Dungeons.

Prayers

All prayers that provide a percentage increase apply multiplicatively, except for Stone Skin which provides a flat 5% increase to Damage Reduction. For example, Mystic Might's +15% Magic Evasion bonus will multiply the player's Magic Evasion Rating by 1.15 rather than directly providing a 15% chance to evade any Magic attack. Likewise, the +15% Magic Accuracy bonus it provides will multiply the player's Magic Accuracy Rating by 1.15 rather than simply adding 15% to their hit chance. Players can view the Combat page for more detail on how hit chance is calculated.

The three Protection prayers are worded differently and behave differently from prayers that affect Evasion Rating. For example, Protect from Magic provides a flat 85% chance for the player to dodge any Magic attack.

Reducing Prayer Point Costs

To reduce the amount of prayer points used by active prayers, players can:

• Equip the Prayer Skillcape, which halves the cost of prayers (rounded down to the nearest whole number of prayer points)
• Equip the Priest Hat, which reduces the cost of prayers by one point
• Use Divine Potions, which provide a 10-35% chance to not consume prayer points
• Acquire Monk-ey, which provides a 5% chance to not consume prayer points

Note that the Priest Hat reduction is applied before the cost is halved by the Prayer Skillcape, meaning that for prayers costing an odd number of prayer points there is no benefit gained by equipping the Priest Hat if already using the Prayer Skillcape.

In addition, the chance to not consume prayer points provided by Divine Potions and Monk-ey are rolled independently. In order words, using both at the same time rolls twice in total: once with a 5% chance, followed by an additional roll with a 10-35% chance to not consume prayer points.

Skillcape

The skillcape can be purchased from the store for  1,000,000 after the player reaches Level 99.
