Best Prayer Training Methods

Overview of Popular Prayer Courses by Level

Prayer training in OSRS can be achieved through various methods, each suited to different levels. Here’s a breakdown of popular courses for each range:

• Levels 1-22: The fastest method is burying limpwort roots, which grants 11 experience each. Alternatively, using bones on an altar can be effective for faster experience gains, especially if you have access to the Ectofuntus for ghostly bones.
• Levels 22-52: At this stage, dragon bones are a popular choice due to their high experience yield. These bones can be offered at an altar or used at a Gilded Altar in a player-owned house for maximum experience gains.
• Levels 52-70: Big bones or infernal ashes are ideal choices, especially at the Gilded Altar. Offering dragon bones or frost dragon bones at the altar will also provide a quicker path to level 70.
• Levels 70-99: For high-level training, using frost dragon bones or royal dragon bones on a Gilded Altar or the Ectofuntus is the most efficient method, offering large experience rewards for each bone used.

Tips for Maximizing XP per Hour

• Use a Gilded Altar or the Ectofuntus: Both options offer massive experience boosts compared to burying bones, making them the best methods for efficient Prayer training.
• Optimize Your Prayer Bonus: Equip gear that boosts your Prayer experience, such as the Arcane Spirit Shield or the Prayer bonus from the Ardougne Cloak. This helps maximize your XP gain during training.
• Consider Prayer-Boosting Items: Items like the Bonecrusher can help you gain Prayer experience passively while killing enemies, maximizing your XP per hour.
• Plan with the Prayer Calculator: Use the Prayer Calculator to find the most efficient combination of bones and methods for your specific level and goals, ensuring you get the best possible experience per hour.

Tips for Efficient Prayer Training

Recommended Gear and Inventory Setups

• Gear for Boosting Prayer Experience: Equip items that enhance your Prayer training, such as the Ardougne Cloak for its Prayer bonus, the Bonecrusher for passive experience gain, or the Arcane Spirit Shield for added Prayer bonus. If you’re using the Ectofuntus, wear Ghostly robes for an experience boost.
• Inventory Setup: Always carry an ample supply of bones or ashes, depending on your training method. Include Super Restore potions to maintain your Prayer points when using the Gilded Altar or Ectofuntus. For longer training sessions, bring Saradomin brews or Prayer potions to sustain your Prayer for extended periods. A Spirit Tree seed can be a handy teleportation method if you’re training near a Gilded Altar or Ectofuntus.

Strategies for Avoiding Burnout While Training

• Break Down Training Goals: Instead of aiming for a huge goal, break your training into smaller, manageable targets. Celebrate each milestone to maintain motivation and avoid feeling overwhelmed.
• Vary Your Methods: If you feel like training is becoming monotonous, switch between different methods. For instance, alternate between using bones on the Gilded Altar and offering them to the Ectofuntus. This variation can keep the process fresh and engaging.
• Set Time Limits: Avoid long, tedious sessions that can lead to burnout by setting time limits for each training period. Take breaks, stretch, and hydrate to keep your focus sharp. A few shorter, focused sessions will be more productive than one marathon session.
