Chapel


 * This article is about the room in a player-owned house. For the buildings scattered around RuneScape where players can recharge their Prayer points, see Church. See also Temple. For the lamps which can grant experience points, see Lamp. For the skill players can use see Prayer.



The Chapel in a player-owned house is a room where the player can recharge Prayer and receive prayer bonus experience for bones like the bonus given by Ectofuntus. This room can be created with 45 Construction and 50,000 coins.

There are 7 different hotspots available :
 * Altar - The altar recharges Prayer points, as all other altars do. Altars in a POH also allow players to offer bones upon them, providing bonus Prayer experience over simply burying the bones; the maximum bonus of 250% (i.e., total experience is 350% of the base amount) is given by a Gilded altar with two burners lit.
 * Lamp - Torches and candlesticks are strictly decorative. Incense burners are lit individually. Each lit burner boosts prayer experience by 50% on top of the altar's experience bonus when offering bones. All 3 kinds of incense burners give the same prayer bonus.
 * Icon - Aligns the chapel to either Guthix, Saradomin, Zamorak, or Bob depending on the icons chosen. The default alignment is to Saradomin. Note: Alignment to Bob does NOT change the chapel's alignment.
 * Window - Higher quality windows provide a window pattern of the player's chosen deity.
 * Statue - Statues of the player's chosen deity.
 * Musical - Instruments that can be played.
 * Rug - Decoration.

Lamps
Note: Both burners are built at once. Therefore, you only need the materials listed in the table once, not twice.

It should be noted that players only receive bonus experience when the burners are lit. If only one burner is lit you receive half the boost. To light the burners, players need a tinderbox and a marrentil for each burner. For a player with a workshop, a tool store 2, and who is using House Teleport tablets, a good strategy would be to use a tablet, get a tinderbox from the workshop, and then light the burners and use the bones on the altar. This will allow players to hold one extra bone, and though it won't be much difference with low level ones, it can allow players to get a fair amount of more experience per trip. Of course, this won't work if players aren't using Teleport Tablets.

Icons


Note: It is worth noting that, depending on which icon you use, can effect some of the furniture looks in your chapel. For example, if you have a Guthix icon, The windows may have the Guthix symbol on them. Or if you have a Zamorak icon, the two statues would be of Zamorak along with the symbol on your altar. Nothing else in the house is affected by this change.

This works for both icons and symbols.
