Devotion is a threshold Defence ability. When activated, protection prayers and deflect curses reduce the damage of the styles they defend against to 1 for 10 seconds. In PvP, damage is instead reduced by 75%. The effect can be extended by 5 seconds per opponent killed, capped at a maximum total duration of 20 seconds by killing two opponents. Killing multiple enemies at the exact same time only counts as one kill.
Note that some monsters, such as nihil and muspah, ignore the effects of Devotion, even if the correct prayers are used. It is unknown if any other monsters are capable of doing this.
It can be unlocked with 3,500 Reward Currency from the Anima Islands Distraction & Diversion, which became available following the fall of Tuska at the Tuska Comes world event.
It was first obtainable by participating in the second world event, at a cost of 32,000 renown, additionally requiring a runite event token. With the death of Bandos and end of the event, it can now be obtained as a rare drop from General Graardor and Kree'arra[1]. It is also obtainable from their bodyguards and from other aviansie in Armadyl's Eyrie and other Bandos followers within the dungeon.
These abilities are individual drops; however, it is possible to receive multiple abilities in a single kill. When received, it is automatically learned; it does not drop as an item. When learned, the message "You have unlocked the Devotion ability!" appears in the chatbox.
