Anyone know what the max quality of gem you will receive for praying is? I was under the impression you would only get under 10ql, but recently I was given a 27ql gem from praying. [[User:Polan|Polan]] 18:11, 13 May 2010 (UTC)Polan

@Ago : I'm quite reasonably certain that my priest received gems before he had 50 faith and that it happened right around 35 prayer.

I have a priest with rather low praying skill. She's not even at 35 prayer yet but has been getting gems for a very long time now, the switch was around the time of getting 50 faith. The last mushroom was received on 2010-07-16, 50 faith was reached on 2010-07-19. Unfortunatly the log does not say what Fo put in her pocket but I usually dropped the mushrooms as soon as I got them. Additionally the logs showed some vesseling action on 2010-07-24, just after receiving some items from Fo which is an indicator I may have got gems back then. --[[User:Ago|Ago]] 13:10, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

50 faith is where you start getting gems and stop getting mushrooms. Not one mushroom since 50 faith (80+ now, been getting gems instead of mushrooms since 50) and praying skill seems irrelevant. [[User:Aeris|Aeris]] 23:42, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

Possible bug

After praying at a stone altar of vynora and trying to sleep in a bed on-deed, I got a 4 minute long timer. I'm not sure if this has been examined before, but I just thought I'd post a note here.

A post that rolf made:

Ah okay now I see the issue here. I had to test some to understand what was going on.
Yes, the higher faith you have, the longer it takes to reach maximum favor.
The top points of favor cost more and more time to regain.
So at 70 faith, if you want to stay on 70 favor all the time you will spend a lot of time praying after every small spell you cast.
You will however always regain the lower favor points faster the higher faith you have. The :better you are at praying, and the better the quality level of the altar will always increase :the speed as well.
So, basically: The most time-economic thing to do is to only have as much favor as you need to cast the current spell you are trying to cast. If you want to go fully prepared into battle you may want to spend time charching your favor to full though.
