A holy symbol is an amulet in the shape of a symbol of Saradomin. Holy symbols are made by having an unblessed symbol blessed by Brother Jered in the Edgeville Monastery, or by blessing it via using a holy book or book of balance on an unblessed symbol at 50 Prayer, requiring a few prayer points. As Brother Jered is located on the upper floor of the monastery, blessing the symbol effectively requires a minimum of level 31 Prayer due to the entry requirement.

About and uses

It has the third highest prayer bonus for an amulet in game (after god stoles and the dragonbone necklace). It is cheap, easy to obtain, and is commonly used in conjunction with Proselyte armour and other high prayer granting armour when using protect prayers as a form of defence while training.

Wearing a holy symbol while being attacked by a Feral Vampyre occasionally reduces their Attack, Strength, Defence, and Magic by 25%.^[1]

Wearing a holy symbol allows players to use a prayer book to cure poison.

A holy symbol will count as a Saradominist item within the God Wars Dungeon.

A holy symbol is required for the quests Animal Magnetism and The Great Brain Robbery.
