[edit] Notes
- The energy loss can be split between multiple people maintaining the same enchantment on one character. Two players with 8 Protection Prayers will each lose -2 energy per hit. Three players at 13 Protection Prayers will each only lose -1 energy per hit. Two players at 13 Protection Prayers will lose -2 and -1, respectively. The first to cast takes the larger energy burden on an odd split. If characters are at differing levels of Protection Prayers, the lowest level is used.
- Its better to use this spell on a target with higher health and/or higher armor to prevent drastic losses in energy. A person with 500-600 health could take damages of 25-30 before triggering the caster into loosing energy making it a very effective and cheap anti-spike skill when blocking 100+ damage spells such as meteor and energy surge for the cost of 3-4energy when a spell of 5energy would normally be required to heal that much back.
