A Prayer potion is a potion made by using snape grass on a ranarr potion (unf), requiring 38 Herblore, yielding a Prayer potion(3) and 87.5 Herblore experience. A dose of Prayer potion restores Prayer points equal to 7 + 25% of the player's current Prayer level, rounded down. If a Prayer cape, Max cape or ring of the gods (i) is equipped or a Prayer cape, Max cape or holy wrench is in the player's inventory, the restore increases to 7 + 27% of the player's current Prayer level, rounded down. It provides less Prayer point restoration than a super restore potion by 1 point per dose.
Prayer potions are always in high demand due to use of Prayers during combat or skilling activities and a need to restore points without travelling to an altar.
After Barbarian Herblore Training, caviar can be added to a Prayer potion(2), requiring 42 Herblore, yielding a Prayer mix and 29 Herblore experience. A Prayer mix has 2 doses, restores Prayer by the same amounts, and heals 6 Hitpoints, with the disadvantage being it now incurs an attack delay.
Effects
Prayer restore is calculated with: ⌊PrayerLevel×14⌋+7
If either a ring of the gods (i) or Prayer/max cape is equipped, or a holy wrench or Prayer/max cape is in the player's inventory, the amount of restored Prayer points is calculated with: ⌊PrayerLevel×27100⌋+7
