Can Bonecrusher Osrs Stack With Salve Amulet Effects?

Short answer: yes, they work together. I’ve worn the Salve amulet for undead bonuses while Bonecrusher auto-buries bones on the side, and both effects fire off independently. Bonecrusher handles the prayer XP side by burying bones as they drop; Salve amulet improves your combat effectiveness against undead. Since they’re different types of effects and live in different equipment slots, there’s no conflict — you get the combat boost and the passive prayer XP simultaneously.

If you’re planning a long undead grind, this combo saves time and keeps your inventory tidy, which I always appreciate. It’s a small QoL win that makes repetitive tasks feel less tedious — love that kind of synergy.

I get a kick out of little mechanical synergies in OSRS, and this one’s delightfully simple: yes, the Bonecrusher and Salve amulet effects do work together. The Bonecrusher is a pocket-slot trinket that automatically buries bones on pickup, granting the usual prayer experience as if you’d manually buried them. The Salve amulet (and its enchanted version, 'Salve amulet (e)') is an amulet worn in the neck slot that gives you a combat bonus specifically against undead creatures. Because they occupy different slots and affect different systems — one handles prayer XP from bones, the other modifies combat performance — they don’t conflict.

Practically speaking, that means you can wear the Salve amulet to get the damage/accuracy boost on skeletons or other undead while the Bonecrusher quietly buries the bones for prayer XP. I’ve done slayer days where I’m smashing through skeleton tasks, wearing the Salve amulet for faster kills, and still racking up prayer XP without stopping to bury. A few tips from experience: the Bonecrusher triggers on most standard bone drops, so it’s especially convenient on high-volume fights; and if you’re trying to maximize XP rates per hour, pairing the Salve for faster kills with Bonecrusher for uninterrupted prayer gains is a solid combo.

There aren’t any hidden interactions where one cancels the other — they’re simply orthogonal buffs. So go ahead and slot both in and enjoy the double benefit; it’s one of those tiny QoL synergies I always appreciate when planning a grind. Feels great to both kill faster and not miss prayer XP, honestly.

I’ve tested this setup on a couple of undead-heavy tasks and my takeaway is straightforward: they stack. Bonecrusher’s deal is purely about bones — auto-burying and giving prayer XP — while the Salve amulet (including the enchanted variant) is a combat modifier when fighting undead. Mechanically they live in separate domains of the game, so equipping both will give you prayer XP from burials and a combat bonus from the amulet at the same time.

From a practical standpoint, this combo is tidy for slayer or training sessions where you want to maximize output without fiddling. Wearing Salve shortens kill times on skeleton-type monsters; Bonecrusher keeps your prayer gains flowing without inventory clutter or manual burying. I like pairing them when I want efficiency: faster kills mean more bones per hour, which translates into more passive prayer XP thanks to Bonecrusher. There are no special exclusions I’ve encountered — they don’t override or negate each other — so you can safely plan gear setups around both effects. It’s one of those minor conveniences that adds up over long grind sessions and makes the whole experience smoother and less interruptive.
