Passive Prayers not always working

[Zio]

That simple. I haven't found a proper pattern. I keep noticing when fetching critters from the eagle eye skill in trapping. sometimes my damage jumps up and down without having changed anything but before I never had the direct damage prayer unlocked, haven't paid too much attention to damage numbers since to see them affected though. Damage fluctuations can happen for all kinds of things though so I'll stick to trapping here.

No prayer has been active but I still only get the basic number of critters (esp shinies). It's been happening for a long time (if not ever since) but inconsistently. Normally I get the passive bonus (ie 25 shiny critters per trap) instead of the basic amount of 1. Doesn't matter which talent preset I'm in, currently in the fighting one with still 221% critter and 99% xp distribution, says the same in skilling preset though. What type of trap it is doesn't matter, though I normally use 10 hour ones, haven't done testing on any others though. Using the prayers actively never gave reduced quantities of shinies. Didn't always have all prayers at max level when it happened but it is the case now, don't remember how high the passive bonus was when none are active but I just assume with all bonuses etc combined the 25 instead of 118 checks out. My Pen Pal highscore has been 141 forever, if that matters.

The only thing I have found to seem to be affecting it is if I have changed a previous characters' prayers before switching to the trapping collector. In this case, the trapping collector was the last I used (first time I logged into that one today and haven't made any changes to them and their prayers the last time I played them), and the one with changed prayers was 2 earlier, applied one prayer and forgot to remove it. So far I can't say how prevalent this is but if I don't forget it I'll try to check other constellations in the future.

Update: the same happened now even though character with blessings active was used way earlier so it probably doesn't matter when/in what order, but only THAT a character has used them.

So unlike as it seems to be working with obols, activated blessings on ANY character before retrieving AFK gains considers either as active and all positive effects are thus considered inactive, at least for the current active session/playtmie I guess? Can of course not reliably say whether it already affects the respective retrieved AFK gains but I don't intend to do that much testing, likewise for auto deposited critters at daily reset times etc.

I can at least confirm that it doesn't matter whether the blessing are active or inactive at the time of logging out of a character, and having the blessings activated from the last session does not trigger the problem. So only activating blessings on either character in the current session will disable all bonuses for everyone for active playtime (obviously still can't say if the same counts for fetching AFK gains on characters after activating any in the current session). Only ending the session and restarting the game makes it go away and give the bonuses again.

Also just realised that keeping them active when logging out will treat them as inactiven whebn logging in after the weekly reset. Can't say for daily reset but closing the game and restarting it will have them kept active, at least when logging out and in on the same character. Doing so with another character (log out with prayer char, log in with non prayer one) will result all passives being inactive as if either bonus was active. Activating and deactivating any prayer in both scenarios will reinstate the respective bonus situation, not tested with royal sampler for obvious reasons.

edit: okay going back to the initial character WITH the prayers active, has had them all treated as inactive again so prayers overall are...finicky.
