{{Title|Prayer armour}}
[[File:Prayer.png|left|Prayer]]

Prayer armour is used to slow the rate at which prayer points drain when praying. Unlike the other three general categories of armour, there are few items within it that can be considered uniquely prayer related. Many shields, magic robes, and types of metal armour can also be considered prayer armour.

===Prayer Robes===
''[[Priest gown|Priest]], [[Monk's robes|Monk]], [[Shade robes|Shade]], [[Zamorak robes|Zamorak]](m), [[Druid robes|Druid]]''''(m), ''[[Citharede Robes|Citharede]] ''(m)''
''Robe Top, Robe Bottoms, Including Citharede additions''

Priest Gowns and Zamorak Robes give the lowest Prayer bonus, while Druid robes give a slightly higher bonus. Monk's Robes give the highest Prayer bonus in [[Free-to-play]]. Monk's Robes are very popular when [[Player killing]]. Citharede robes are comparable with Monk robes, though both top and bottom give one less prayer bonus each, the total set gives more points: +19 bonus to +11, in addition to the aforementioned Prayer restoration while listening to musicians. Monk are mostly used by free players while Citharede is generally used by members. However, monk robes are not used often in Activities (nor are they recommended to be used in them). The wearer may find themselves often coming under attack from different attack styles in a multicombat area and, being able to use only one protect prayer at a time, this basically ensures a swift death (i.e. a player with monk's robes using [[Protect from Melee]] against a warrior coming under fire by a ranger, and being unable to protect from both).

===God books(m)===
[[File:Holy book.png|right|The Holy book.]][[File:Book of balance.png|right|The Book of balance.]][[File:Unholy book.png|right|The Unholy book.]]''[[Holy book|Holy (Saradomin)]], [[Book of balance|Balance (Guthix)]], [[Unholy book|Unholy (Zamorak)]], [[Book of war|War (Bandos)]], [[Book of law|Law (Armadyl)]], [[Ancient book|Ancient (Zaros)]]''

The God books are often used when using prayer. These are obtained by completing the [[Horror from the Deep]] quest. They then must be completed by adding [[God pages]] obtained from [[Treasure Trails]] or the Grand Exchange. The incomplete books give a prayer bonus, while the completed ones give a bonus to all defences (Holy book), to all attacks (Unholy book) and equally to both attacks and defences (Book of balance).
==Illuminated God books''(m)''==

In the Abbey of Saint Elspeth's scriptorium players with 60 prayer can create Illuminated god books which gives it a significantly better bonus of +8 prayer.

==== [[File:Illuminated_ancient_book.png]]''An illuminated copy of the Ancient book (Zaros)''====

The Illuminated Unholy book is used most often, especially with ranged and magic attacks, due to it having the highest ranged attack bonus and the fifth highest magic attack bonus (after the [[Arcane spirit shield]], [[Farseer Kiteshield|Farseer kiteshield]], [[Mage's book]] and the [[Tome of Frost]]), for any sidearm. This also makes these pages the most expensive. (Zamorak being the most expensive Saradomin being the second most expensive and Guthix being the third most expensive.) These books are sometimes used to taunt other players especially with the Zamorak prayerbook by saying "The weak deserve to die, so that the strong may flourish. This is the creed of Zamorak."

==Other==

===Temple Knight Armour''(m)''===
''[[Initiate armour|Initiate]], [[Proselyte armour|Proselyte]]''
 ''[[Proselyte sallet|Sallet (Helmet)]], [[Proselyte hauberk|Hauberk (Platebody)]], [[Proselyte cuisse|Cuisse (Platelegs)]], [[Proselyte tasset|Tasset (Plateskirt)]] (Proselyte only)''

Recruitement drive quest and Proselyte Armour is earned by completing [[Slug Menace]] quest. Initiate Armour has the same statistics as its [[Mithril armour]], Proselyte armour has the same statistics as its [[Adamant armour]] counterparts, with an even larger Prayer bonus. The Proselyte Hauberk and Cuisse/Tasset give the highest Prayer bonus available for the torso and leg armours respectively.

===Vestment Robes''(m)''===

<option>[[File:Saradomin cloak detail.png|right|100px|A Saradomin Cloak.]]</option>
<option>[[File:Guthix cloak detail.gif|right|A Guthix Cloak.]]</option>

 ''[[Mitre|Mitre (Hat)]], [[Vestment robe top|Robe top]], [[Vestment robe bottom|Robe bottom]], [[Vestment cloak|Cloak]], [[Stole|Stole (Amulet)]], [[Crozier|(Weapon: Crozier)]] ''

The Vestment robe sets are in many pieces. Mitres give the highest prayer bonus for any headgear and Stoles give the highest prayer bonus of any amulet. Vestment cloaks give the fourth highest prayer bonus for a cape, after the [[Soul Wars Cape]], [[Ardougne Cloak 3|Ardougne Cloak 3,]] and a [[Cape of Accomplishment|Trimmed Cape of Accomplishment]]. Vestment robe tops and bottoms give a small prayer bonus, less than [[Monk's robes]], but many players wear them to look good or to show support for a [[Gods|God]]. The Crozier is not often used, as players prefer to use another weapon or staff. Vestments can be obtained from [[Treasure Trails]], or by trading with another player.

===Verac's Armour''(m)''===
[[File:Verac's brassard detail.png|right|150px|Verac's brassard.]]
''[[Verac's helmet|Helmet]], [[Verac's Brassard|Brassard]], [[Verac's plateskirt|Plateskirt]]. [[Verac's flail|(Flail)]]''

Verac's Armour is a high-level Melee Armour that gives a Prayer bonus. It gives the same bonuses as [[Initiate armour]], except for Verac's plateskirt, which gives slightly less. When all of Verac's set is worn (including Verac's Flail), the player has a chance of hitting through protection prayers. The set effect coupled with the Prayer bonus makes this armour very popular when fighting the [[Kalphite queen]] and in the [[Duel Arena]]. Verac's Armour is obtained from the [[Barrows]] [[Activities|activity]] or by trading with another player. Like other Barrows Armour, Verac's Armour has to be repaired after 15 hours of combat.

===Spirit shields''(m)''===
<choose><option>[[File:Spirit shield detail.png|right|100px|The "basic" Spirit shield.]]</option><option>[[File:Blessed spirit shield detail.png|right|70px|The Blessed spirit shield.]]</option></choose>
''[[Spirit shield|'Plain']], [[Blessed spirit shield|Blessed]], [[Arcane spirit shield|Arcane]], [[Divine spirit shield|Divine]], [[Elysian spirit shield|Elysian]], [[Spectral spirit shield|Spectral]]''

Spirit shields are a range of shields available to members after they have completed the quest [[Summer's End]]. The shields are all derived from the "basic" Spirit shield, The basic Spirit shield requires level 40 Defence and level 55 Prayer, and its bonuses are comparable to a Rune kiteshield. The Blessed Spirit Shield, obtained by blessing the basic shield with a [[Holy elixir]], has bonuses similar to that of a [[Dragon square shield]], but with a heavily increased crush bonus.

<choose><option>[[File:Arcane spirit shield detail.png|right|The Arcane spirit shield.|100px]]</option><option>[[File:Divine spirit shield detail.png|right|The Divine spirit shield.|100px]]</option><option>[[File:Elysian spirit shield detail.png|right|The Elysian spirit shield.|100px]]</option><option>[[File:Spectral spirit shield detail.png|right|100px|The Spectral spirit shield.]]</option></choose>
Attaching a [[Spirit sigil]] to the blessed shield gives an additional bonus - the [[Arcane sigil]] increases the shield's magic attack bonus, making it the best sidearm available for magic attack; the [[Spectral sigil]] increases the shield's magic defence, making it the best sidearm available for magic defence; the [[Divine sigil]] gives the shield the special effect of "30% - or as much as if possible if 30% is more than your current amount of Prayer points - of any damage you take is removed. Half of this 30% is deducted from your Prayer instead, while the other half is ignored completely."; the [[Elysian sigil]] gives the shield a special effect of "70% chance of reducing the damage you receive by 25%".

All spirit shields give a small prayer bonus with enhanced ones giving a higher bonus.

The enhanced spirit shields are currently some of the most expensive items available; this is due to the fact that the parts are only dropped by the Corporeal Beast.

===Negative Prayer bonus===

The minimum [[Prayer]] [[Equipment_Stats|bonus]] is -13 (-8 from the [[Amulet of Zealots]] and -5 from [[Zanik's crossbow]]).
