Guides / [Skill]Prayer guide

« on: May 24, 2015, 11:13:42 am »

Prayer is one of the most practical skills in the game. It's uses go from boosting your damage output to almost fully protecting you from attacks. In both pvp and pvm prayer is used very extensively. Leveling it up can be a bit tedious however. This guide will tell you how. This guide contains clickable links to the wiki, so feel free to click around. Clicking the prayer icon will take you to the wiki page for it.

Table of contents

• The advantages of prayer
• Prayer points
• Prayer effects
• Exp rates
• Training methods
• Tips & tricks

The advantages of prayer

As said in the intro, prayer has various different effects which help you in combat. These go from simple stat boosts, to full protections. Why should you use these? Because they're a massive factor in fighting efficiently. Let's take protect from melee as an example; if you're fighting a monster that deals a lot of melee based damage, you'll reduce your damage taken by a significant amount if you pray. This could mean more kills, less supply used, and longer trips, thus more efficiency.

Prayer points

It isn't all for free though. Your prayer level is equal to the amount of prayer points you have, and these will drain slowly if you are using any prayers. The rate at which it does depends on what prayers you are using. Prayer points can be restored in various ways, the easiest way is by talking to a healer or praying at an altar, this will restore them back to full. There are also prayer and super restore potions which restore prayer points for when you aren't near one.

Prayer effects

I will now be listing all the various effects you can get with prayer. These will be listed by type, you can not turn on multiple prayers of the same type at the same time. There are a few prayers that this rule doesn't apply to, protect item, rapid heal and rapid restore. You can also use 1 overhead prayer while using another prayer. This is a list of all the prayers by type, prayers in the same table can't be turned on at the same time.

• Melee boosts
  
  
• Range boosts
  
• Magic boosts
  
• Defence boosts
  
• Overhead prayers
  
• Other prayers
  

Exp rates
There is a whole variety of bones, ranging from really low exp (normal bones) to high exp (dragon and frost dragon bones). If you plan on collecting a certain type of bone, keep in mind the higher prayer exp they give, the more likely it is that they're hard to get.

Training methods

Simply burying all the bones you get from killing monsters is a pretty standard method to level up prayer, however it might be better to collect bones and bury them when there's double exp, or use them with brawlers. Buying the bones is an expensive method, but it is reliable. As far as getting your own prayer experience goes, I recommend the following two things.

Collecting bones

You don't see people camping blue dragons for nothing, they drop dragon bones, which are the second best bones in the game. Blue dragons are the easiest dragons outside of the wilderness, but that doesn't mean you can't kill other dragons. Red, black, brutal and mithril dragons are also great alternatives. Frost dragons beat them all though. I'd recommend killing frost dragons at Neitiznot island if you have high combat stats and at least 65 agility, their bones bury for a whopping 5,625 exp with double and brawlers.

If you don't know how to go about killing frosts, you can find a guide for it here.



If you can't go to frost dragons, I recommend you kill any chromatic dragon.

Pest control

You can also get prayer exp from the pest control minigame. For 100 tickets you can get an exp amount dependant on your level, the higher the level the more exp. This is a great method if you have a lot of pest control tickets, you can get 99 prayer pretty easily using this method. Double exp and brawlers also work on the exp rewards from the minigame.

Tips & tricks

If you collect your bones, don't bury them unless it's double exp, it'll save you a lot of time or money on the bones.
Brawler gloves, which can be obtained from the castle wars minigame give a 1.5x exp boost to prayer as well, this stacks with double exp for a total of 3x exp.



And that's the end of the guide. If you have any improvements to it please post. And if this guide was useful to you feel free to give it a thank.

Update Notes / Updates 16/04/2015

« on: April 13, 2015, 01:50:17 pm »

Hey guys,

I got quite a lot stuff changed for today. Please take your time and read through it. Some changes are really important!

We're trying to make PvP more popular. The current combat system works perfectly fine for PvM, but the hits are just too high for PvP. We're therefore nerfing some strength bonuses of high level equipment. On the other hand we'll also decrease some monster's hitpoints so that PvM won't become more difficult. On top of that, we're buffing special attacks to make PvP more exciting!

Following things have been updated:

• IMPORTANT: Untradeable items are lost during PvP fights in the wilderness. However, if you die versus a WildyWyrm without having fought a player, you will still be able to pickup untradeable items (e.g. void knight armour). Simply said: If no other player gets your item drop in the wilderness, you can pickup your untradeables again, else you lose them. You can still pickup untradeable items everywhere and all the time outside the wilderness!
• IMPORTANT: Teleports now block incoming hits. Whenever your teleport starts, you cannot die anymore. The only exception is if a teleblock successfully hits you during your teleport animation. That will still cancel your teleport.
• Thrown equipment and karil's crossbow are now 0.5 seconds faster.
• An important bug was fixed which caused the (e) bolts effect occur with a 12.5% chance rather than 25% which was always intended to be.
• A sound bug was fixed where it would only play on full volume, although it's far away.
• Following monster's hitpoints were changed: (from --> to)
  • KBD: 720 --> 500
  • Chronozon: 1050 --> 850
  • Smoke demon champion: 500 --> 400
  • Kree'arra: 450 --> 380
  • General graardor: 410 --> 380
  • K'ril tsutsaroth: 430 --> 380
  • Jad: 468 --> 400
  • Chaos elemental: 431 --> 330
  • Frost dragon: 275 --> 200
  • Mithril dragon: 240 --> 190
  • Brutal green dragon: 195 --> 165
  • Black dragon: 190 --> 150
  • Red dragon: 157 --> 128
  • Blue dragon: 117 --> 103
  • Green dragon: 89 --> 82
  • Steel dragon: 220 --> 175
  • Iron dragon: 173 --> 147
  • Bronze dragon: 125 --> 108
  • Ice strykewyrm: 190 --> 174
  • Spectrals: 450 --> 342
  • Corporeal beast 1st form: 450 --> 304
  • Corporeal beast 2nd form: 700 --> 531
• Amulet of str (t), amulet of magic (t) and amulet of ranging strength bonus lowered from 15 to 12.
• Culinaromancer gloves nerfed (Barrow, dragon, rune, ... gloves). Barrow gloves now give +6 str in all combat styles. Dragon gloves give +5 and rune gloves +4.
• Bandos, Armadyl and battle robes strength bonuses nerfed. Chest and legs now give +4 strength bonus. Boots and helm/hood give +3 strength bonus.
• Dragonfire shield strength bonus nerfed. It now gives +4.
• Fighter torso strength bonus nerfed. It now gives +4.
• Third age armours buffed. Every armour piece now gives +1 strength bonus. Chest and legs give +2 strength bonus.
• Ancient armours strength bonus nerfed (vesta, statius, zuriel, morrigan): Chest and legs now give +8 strength, helm +4 strength.
• Your equipment screen now shows bonuses for prayers and void knight armour. These bonuses are no longer invisible to you:
  
• Due to the strength bonus changes, we're buffing some special attacks: (from --> to)
  • Dragon dagger: 95% --> 105%
  • Vesta longsword: 125% --> 135%
  • Vesta spear: 130% --> 145%
  • Statius warhammer: 110% --> 130%
  • Morrigan javelin & throwing axe: 125% --> 135%
  • AGS: 120% --> 131.25%
  • SGS, ZGS, BGS: 110% --> 125%
  • Seercull: 110% --> 115%
  • Magic shortbow: 85% --> 100%
  • Saradomin sword: 100% --> 110%
  • Dragon claws: 105% --> 110%
  • Dragon 2h sword: 115% --> 125%
  • Granite maul: 95% --> 105%
  • Abyssal whip: 100% --> 110%
• God bow arrows now give equal Range strength bonus as Dragon arrows. God arrows special effect buffed, it now hits 1-5 instead of 1-4.
• Vambraces now give Ranged strength bonus.
• Dragon bolts (e) special effect buffed. It now does up to 25 damage (it did 20 before).
• Onyx bolts (e) special effect changed. It now hits up to 25 damage and heals you for 20% of your hit.
• Darkbow attack speed reduced to 4.5 seconds down from 7 seconds.
• Vesta spear now does 90% of its special attack immediately (used to be 70%). The remaining 10% appear half a second later as 2 separated hits.
• Spear and staff attack/block animations updated.
• Revenants nerfed. They now hit 10 less and more 0s.
• God capes are no longer being dropped by any monster (zamorak, saradomin and guthix cape). They will be re-added when they've become rarer.

I've also updated the client's ::multicore command. Please check it out and tell me by how much your fps rate increases! (::fpson / ::fpsoff)

Last but not least some information for the GE. As you all know, the Grand Exchange isn't an easy system. We've been testing it during the last few days to ensure that we find all possible bugs. So far, we've already found and successfully a duping bug. I hope you understand, that I can't release the GE without knowing for sure, that it doesn't contain any major issues! That's why it takes so long to get it into the live game.

All the best,
Thomy
