Altar


 * This article is about the altar used to recharge Prayer. For the altar used in Runecrafting, see Runecrafting altar.



An altar is an interactive piece of furniture that allows a player to recharge their Prayer points. To pray at an alter, players must left-click on the altar, or right click and select the 'pray' option. Their character will then kneel by the altar, and it will recharge prayer points.

To locate an altar, look for the altar icon on the world map or minimap.

Special Altars
These are the altars that do not look like the standard altars, or that have special effects.


 * Druid's Circle north of Taverley - the stone in the centre of the Henge can be used to recharge
 * Tribal Statue, Tai Bwo Wannai Village - can only be used on completion of the Tai Bwo Wannai Trio quest
 * Monastery just west of Edgeville, also known officially as the Prayer Guild (players must have a prayer level of 31 to enter) - praying at the altar boosts the player's prayer points 2 above their current prayer level
 * Nature Altar, Mort Myre Swamp (players must complete the Nature Spirit quest to gain access to this altar) - when prayed at, it boosts the player's prayer points 2 above their current prayer level
 * Elidinis Statuette in Nardah (can be acessed after completing the Spirits of the Elid quest) - not only does this alter restore Prayer, it also briefly boosts a player's hitpoints above their normal level
 * Agility Dungeon, north of Yanille - this altar does not actually work (when players try to pray at it, it opens a trap door that drops them a floor down into the middle of a large group of poison spiders)
 * The player's house - players can pray at it normally, or use bones on it for more Prayer experience (see also: construction)

Other

 * The altar in the basement of Wizard's Tower cannot be prayed at. Its only use is in the Restless Ghost quest.
