OSRS Ironman Prayer Guide (1–99)

🦴 Always Save Your Bones

• Do NOT bury bones — save them until you can use a multiplier method
• Collect bones from:
  • Slayer monsters (Hill giants, Kalphites, Dragons, etc.)
  • Wilderness monsters (Revenants, Chaos Fanatic)
  • Bossing (KBD, Vorkath, etc.)
• Store dragon bones in noted form or keep until ready to bank/train

⚰️ Level 1–43+: Ectofuntus (High XP, Low Cost)

• Grind bones → use at Ectofuntus (Port Phasmatys)
• Multiplies XP by 4x — great for early Prayer levels
• You’ll need:
  • Empty pots + bone crusher + slime buckets
  • Teleport with Ectophial after Ghosts Ahoy

🪦 Level 1–70+: POH Gilded Altar

• Build a Gilded Altar in your POH (requires 75 Construction)
• Use with 2 lit incense burners for maximum bonus
• XP Bonus: 350% — best long-term Ironman option
• Alternative: Use someone else's house in House Party world (World 330)

💀 Level 43–99: Dragon & Wyvern Bones

• Train Slayer and collect:
  • Dragon bones (Green, Blue, Red, Black dragons)
  • Wyvern bones (Fossil Island)

🧠 Optional: Ensouled Heads & Arceuus Altar

• Arceuus spellbook required (100% favor)
