My friend is saying Jagex stated they would be doing a high level update for Prayer before 2010.

 

Does anyone know anything about this, preferably where they actually said it.

i don't know, but I do know I would love it.

 

Also, another new thing, has anybody heard of a new gwd? apparently its from the door in sara gwd and a hybrid of all the bosses

I believe one of the references to a prayer update is the following image which was 'leaked' from the Knowledge-Base supposedly.

 

 

The image obviously shows an updated Prayer Icon - although I find this a pretty loose tie to a prayer update, but it's something I suppose.

 

The image also shows 611 Songs, which at the time was more than we had (608). One of the new additions is a song called "Angels & Demons" which we still don't have even though we now have 613 songs overall.

 

I also thought that there was mention of a Prayer update in the Q&A's that Jagex have done - but I can't find anything so I suppose I'm either missing it or it was my imagination! :^_^:

 

So far to me, it would appear that the majority of evidence is from Player-hype rather than actual statements from Jagex, although the High-Level updates each month that Jagex have mentioned suggests the inclusion of Prayer I'd imagine.

 

Edit:

 

There's also a thread here on TIF which was discussing the possibility of a Prayer Update: 242535-prayer-update-is-it-around-the-corner/

 

It mentions that the CEO hinted at a Prayer Update in Q&As, but again - I can't find reference to that. ;)

It would be awesome if it was updated, but there so far seems to be very little evidence of one upcoming.

It was just pure speculation... It fulled the price of bones too, which cost me 2m more for 70 prayer <_<

Pretty sure they did say they were working on high-level prayers in the Q&A. I'll have to look myself, but I remember reading about it...

 

EDIT: Found this from the Sept. 10 Q&A:

 

Heavenlyevil asks:

Which skills do you believe require elite level content the most?

 

Mod Mark: Those skills that offer no progression at the top levels or which fail to offer better XP rates at the top levels.

 

Mod Fetzki: Those skills where people only continue to train because of the number on the skills list and not because of what they unlock (like Prayer and Herblore, which respectively don’t have extra features beyond level 70 or level 82).

 

ALSO THERE:

 

Mod Fetzki: Skill-related updates are much harder to blog about without giving away too many spoilers, too. We can understand completely that you are eager to learn what we have planned for the higher end of the skills, but I can only assure you that there is at least one update aimed at the higher end of a skill in every month until the end of this year. We will also continue to fill out skills next year.

 

That's about all they say, I guess, but to me this would suggest a prayer update before too long. Herblore only has as much said about it here as Prayer. And we all know the overhaul Herby got...
