Frost bones

[TeamRealT]

1) Worth it to use over d bones for prayer?

 

2) If so at what gp/hr are they better to use then d bones? ( ex: if you make over 1m you should use d bones)

You can buy 3.2+ dragon bones for the price of 1 frost, while you only get 2.5 times xp for using a frost. Its not worth it unless your using brawlers.

ok thanks

Obviously frost bones are worse gp/exp, but they speed up training by a few hours, in which you can make money. There is a certain income that makes frosts better, I'm just not sure what it is.

Assuming bones are bought at med price and you can do 1.5k bones/hr with gilded altar/pack yak/ring of duelings, also ignoring other costs

 

Dbones=5540gp, 252 xp

Fdbones=17900gp, 640 xp

 

1 hour of altaring with Fdbones is 960k prayer xp, costing 26.85m

To get 960k xp from dbones, it will take 2.54 hours, costing 21.2m

 

You save 1.54 hours with fdbones over dbones at an additional cost of 5.65m

 

So if you value your time at ~3.67m, you should train with frost dragon bones.

 

I went with ourg bones to 95 prayer BTW, since fdbones have a 1k volume limit on the GE while the other bones have 10k.

thank you was very helpful

Unless you make mone via a even less fun way than altaring i don't see why not using frost bones.

[Big_Stingman]

Wish I had that much money to blow on prayer lol...Personally once I hit 70 prayer I usually only train it by lamps, quests, and bones that I get myself.

 

As to which is better, I believe dragon bones are cheaper, unless you make several million GP an hour.

[Sy_Accursed]

Yeah as pretty much covered universally above the bones follow the standard rules:

 

The lower the bones level and xp the better it is for gp/xp. For the cheapest prayer xp ever plain bones would be the best better.

However the higher level more expensive bones give far better xp/hr rates.

 

So its up to to each person really as to how you do it: slower and cheaper or faster and more expensive.

If you make over 3m/h and rather moneymake than offer bones, then use Frost Bones. If you have brawlers, use Frost Bones. If neither, use Dragon Bones
