When to use prismatic pendants

Post by Dr Brad » Wed Oct 02, 2013 3:46 pm

Now that boosts (lamps, prismatics, etc.) can be used for Divination, we were discussing the prismatic pendants in CC.

According to the Jagex wiki: "XP is limited to 120K for normal pendants and 240K for prized pendants."

I'm 92 Div and charged up a prized prismatic pendant. I received 63,497 Div XP......XP waste! (instead of 240K)

I will wait until higher Div levels before using any more prismatic pendants!

Those figures aren't correct actually, not sure why they'd even state that.

The real numbers are below:

NOTE: Overall exp means how much exp you'd get in total from using a full pendant, not just the bonus exp

===Total XP earned from training the skill with a prismatic pendant (90+)===

(Prismatic pendant exp = 1.2 x a Large Lamp exp for your level)

90 24,486*1.2 = 29,383.2 (88,149.6xp OVERALL)
91 25,806*1.2 = 30,967.2 (92,901.6xp OVERALL)
92 26,458*1.2 = 31,749.6 (95,248.8xp OVERALL)
93 27,714*1.2 = 33,256.8 (99,770.4xp OVERALL)
94 28,944*1.2 = 34,732.8 (104,198.4xp OVERALL)
95 30,130*1.2 = 36,156 (108,468xp OVERALL)
96 32,258*1.2 = 38,709.6 (116,128.8xp OVERALL)
97 33,390*1.2 = 40,068 (120,204xp OVERALL)
98+ 34,408*1.2 = 41,289.6 (123,868.8xp OVERALL)

90-91 = 6.3 pendants
91-92 = 6.6 pendants
92-93 = 7.1 pendants
93-94 = 7.5 pendants
94-95 = 7.9 pendants
95-96 = 8.4 pendants
96-97 = 8.7 pendants
97-98 = 9.2 pendants
98-99 = 9.9 pendants



===Total XP earned from training the skill with a prized prismatic pendant (90+)===

(Prized prismatic pendant bonus exp = 1.2 x Huge Lamp exp for your level)

90 = 58,766.4 (117,532.8xp OVERALL)
91 = 61,934.4 (123,868.8xp OVERALL)
92 = 63,499.2 (126,998.4xp OVERALL)
93 = 66,513.6 (133,027.2xp OVERALL)
94 = 69,464.4 (138,928.8xp OVERALL)
95 = 72,312 (144,624xp OVERALL)
96 = 77,419.2 (154,838.4xp OVERALL)
97 = 80,136 (160,272xp OVERALL)
98 = 82,578 (165,156xp OVERALL)


90-91 = 4.7 prized pendants needed
91-92 = 4.96 prized pendants needed
92-93 = 5.3 prized pendants needed
93-94 = 5.6 prized pendants needed
94-95 = 5.95 prized pendants needed
95-96 = 6.3 prized pendants needed
96-97 = 6.5 prized pendants needed
97-98 = 6.94 prized pendants needed
98-99 = 7.44 prized pendants needed

I'm not sure I understand completely, there's a cap to the amount of bonus xp you can have stacked up per skill?
Or are pendants supposed to have different xp values now than before?

Div went pretty fast to me, I'd much rather use them on slayer or agility.

I'm eyeballing it, but it seems that lvl 92 on is a decent place to start using them.
