Saradomin's Book of Wisdom

Not to be confused with the Prayer book from The Great Brain Robbery

A Holy book is a book held in place of a shield, and is the God book aligned with Saradomin. For information on how to acquire a God book, see the God books article. With a holy book, a player can preach and perform ceremonies, such as blessing, last rites, and wedding rites by operating it.

Also, if a player's Prayer level is 50 or higher, they can bless holy symbols with a holy book by expending 3 Prayer points for each symbol. It is obtained after completing Horror from the Deep. If you lose this item you can reclaim it at the lighthouse for no cost by speaking to Jossik. He will tell you how it washed up from a river.

When reading blessings, wedding ceremonies, last rites, or preaches, you expend 25% of your special attack energy.

The holy book enhances a wielder's defensive stats, while providing no offensive bonuses. That makes it somewhat of a worse choice than a defender for melee combat, as defenders provide Strength bonuses. It is a better choice for rangers or mages or strength pures as it provides no negative bonuses and gives defensive bonuses.

Filling the Holy book with all pages currently costs 0 coins.
