'''Prayer''' is a skill which allows players to gain temporary advantages in combat. It is a very slow skill to raise, as it can only be done, little by little, by burying bones. Prayers can be very beneficial against monsters and other players. | |||

If you want to use a prayer, click on the prayer menu, which is to the right of the equipment menu. Prayers available for use are highlighted, while prayers you cannot use are dark. When you click on a prayer, a circle will appear around it, indicating that you are using it. Be aware that your prayer points will drop slowly. When they reach zero, the prayer will no longer be effective, and you'll have to recharge at an altar before you can pray again. | If you want to use a prayer, click on the prayer menu, which is to the right of the equipment menu.

The prayers can give you great advantages over monsters and players in the wilderness. Some prayers improve your combat skills, while others can protect you, or even damage your opponents. The prayer level is raised by burying bones. As you gain prayer experience, you can use more and better prayers. Your prayers will also last longer. | The prayers can give you great advantages over monsters and players in the wilderness.

=Ectofuntus= | |||
Members can worship the ''Ectofuntus'' to gain 4 times the experience they would get from just burying a bone. It is located in far northeast Morytania just north of Port Phasmatys. The process of worshipping is much more efficient if the [[RuneScape/Quests/Ghosts Ahoy|Ghosts Ahoy]] quest has been completed. Players can go down a trapdoor and several flights of stairs (at 58 agility several shortcuts can be used) to reach a giant pool of ectoslime. Buckets can be used on the pool to collect the slime. One bucket of slime is needed for every worship done. Besides the bucket, the player also has to go upstairs to the "bone grinder" and put their collected bones in there. Several clicks on the machine are needed to process the bones, after which players can collect the bone dust with a pot. Players may worship the ectofuntus using one pot of ground bones and one bucket of slime, after which they can talk to the local ghost disciplines (using a ghostspeak amulet), to gain ectotokens. Because this is such a tedious process, the Ectofuntus is generally used for high level bones such as dragon or baby dragon bones, in which case the player gains substantially more experience. | |||
