I don't know if it's just me, but after eoc prayer just seems so pointless to me.

Well, maybe 92 or 95 curses are nice to have if you're a high lvl fighter, but then again ea week I read about another nerf here or eoc cmb change there.

So, not sure if training prayer is actually worth it anymore except for 99 cape / completion. What's the actual benefit before or beyond 92? Guess the only really useful prayer before 92 is protect item. Protect prayers were nerfed with eoc, rapid heal and renewal are a joke as walking into a bank can heal faster. Redemption, ok maybe if you pickpocket master farmers or spread some love during a riot in fally.
And after 95 there's nothing more to gain.

So.. why instead of just handing out xp just give us new prayers to unlock as a reward, maybe some skill related prayers that either boost the skill or the chance of success in a skill or the xp in a skill while the prayer lasts. Or for cmb a prayer that works like / stacks with ring of wealth. Evil Tree FC - Eviltreefind V8

I really don't think that this will be dead content. It's a way to get free prayer xp, so I'm sure that many players will do this, even if the xp/hour rate is very low. This could and probably will save me millions of gp. Very nice update!

And for those who complain that prayer should be a costly skill: why? Almost all skills in the game cost nothing to train. Think of all combat skills, thieving, agility, slayer, dungeoneering, woodcutting, firemaking (when done with the logs you cut + jadinko lair), runecrafting, mining, fishing, cooking (when you use the fish you caught), ... And if you think of it, you can get all resources for the costly skills (herblore, prayer, construction, smithing ...) by grinding certain monsters etc. although that will be very slow. So basically, everything is already potentially free. Therefore, I see no reasons to object against this update.

I don't see a point to this update. Firstly, it's catered to low level players but is members only. How hard is it to reach level 40 prayer as a member? Secondly, the game is already as easy as it is, there really is next to no point in cranking out DnD after DnD. The only saving grace I see is that it won't be as overpowered as Wilderness Warbands.

This update resembles Goblin Invasions - would have been useful to F2P, but meaningless as it's P2P. Runescape Forumers Discord Server

I needed this vid to make sense visually, since I don't currently have sound
(insert sob story about corrupt company not recalling known faulty product here)

What I got from the video was (since captions are not working):

Kill a worm, zap between your hands, got to Mort Myre and raise hands repeatedly towards evil hands, pour whatever you get into a container - if you go alone you will get slapped.

Please make sure videos make sense visually, as well as being scripted. (Which was obviously great, judging on the feedback).

(And could someone post what is going on?! tyvm)
