---Ultimate-Tank-Ranger-Guide---

THIS GUIDE IS BEING RE-BUILT AT THE MOMENT, GIVE ME SOME TIME TO GET PICTURES AND MORE DETAILS TOGETHER. THANK YOU! (july 31st, 2007.)


NOTE: THIS IS MY GUIDE, I CREATED IT, IF YOU SEE SOMEONE USING IT SOMEWERE ELSE PLEASE PM ME AND TELL ME WHERE, THANKS.


Hello, Im not gonna go into to much detail about my self but my names ed, pm me if you need any more info that i do not cover in this guide.


well, heres the stuff you really want.


1)Tank Name
2)Suplies
3)Do's
4)Dont's
5)Training
6)Questing
7)Pking

Step 1:

The easiest way to start a tank ranger is either to use an existing pure ranger with 1 pray and any range level. Or a pure Strength character with 1 prayer and any defence level.

If you have a pure ranger that meets the above requirements, Your in luck.
we'll call this account option (A).

If you have a pure strength with the above requirements, your in even better luck. We'll call this account option (B)

If you have on account, start new on tutorial island, I know its hard, but in the end its worth it. We'll call this account option (C)

Now to discuss names, When choosing a name, try to be uniqe with it, something funny maybe, BY ALL COSTS, DO NOT USE NAMES LIKE I__x___dd.
Names with 1+spaces are getting banned like crazy, including my old file named k--i-l-l--a. Try makeing a name with the word ranged in it, avoid numbers.


NOTE: Membership IS A MUST


Step 2:

You WILL need an EXCESIVE amount of Gp for this adventure. I suggest 5m+ and some items.

For option (A) the suplies needed are as follows.

* 20k bronze, iron, or steel arrows.
* Full rune w/ scim.( If you want to save some food, steel, mith, and addy also, no scims needed.)
* Amulet of power, Amulet of Glory, Or if You are rich, Amulet of Fury.
* 1k trout, salmon, monkfish, or lobsters.
* The bow that your range level can use (shortbow).
* A full set of dragonhide which you can use at your range level.
* Runes for teleing around.
* About 1m cash.

For option (B)

* The same suplies as option (A)
* The scimitar you can curently use
* Strength potions, and Attack potions.

For option (C)

* All the suplies for accounts (A) and (B)


Step 3:

What to do:

* Make friends with Other tanks, and Pures.
* If some one calls you a "defence noob" dont insult them back, just explain that you are a new type of pure.

Step 4:

* Do not i repeat DO NOT get prayer, any level, at all, prayer ruins rangers, unless your 52+ .
* Do not swear at other players, break the rules, publicly announce anything illegal, its a stupid way to get banned.

Step 5:

If you are a pure ranger, id sugest training at pc on rapid style, and use the points on defence. Do this until about 40 defence.

If you are a pure strength, train at rock crabs with your scimitar on defence attack style, bring attack and strength pots, 3 of each, and rest of invetory should be food. After you are 20 defence, go grab full mith, and if u wanna be fancy, and have the mage level, get Mystic top,hat,boots,and gloves. Train with mele until 40 defence. If you are 1-20 ranged, grab some leather armor and all your arrows, and go to cows in lumbridge, train there until 30 ranged, when you hit 30 ranged go to crabs in studded armor, until 40 ranged, when you hit 40 ranged, Try pc, or stay at rock crabs until 50. At 50 range do waterfall quest and go to firegiants, hide in the doorway in the farthest room to the left. you'll discover new places to hide as time goes by, stay there until 60-70 range, if you get bored try to pc, it can get boring but its nice to have something to switch through.

If you are still lvl 3, when on tutorial island get 3 defence, 3 ranged, 3 attack, and 3 strength.
Get all the stuff on your account and go get some leather armor. Go to the cows in lumbridge and long range them. Its pretty self explainatory what you do from here, after you get 40 defence, 40 range, train attack and strength to 40,40, you can do this manualy, or do it with quests which i will cover in step 6.

step 6:

Quests are a great way to get xp
i suggest doing:

Fight arena
Tree gnome village
The grand tree
Waterfall quest
Monkey madness, and get the xp at the end.


Step 7:
Pking is the best thing thats gonna happen to you


What to wear: f2p.

Rune large helm
rune chain body
green dhide chaps
green dhide vambs
ammy of power
100 addy arrows
Full lobbies
one space for arrows
NO TELLES

Were to pk-edge
dont pk at varrock, you'll most likely get teamed.


What to wear: p2p.
same as above except:
rune arrows not addy
black dhide vambs and chaps not green
1 range pot, and 1 anti poisin pot
full sharks



If you are confused about the training part, i know i made this guide in 10 minutes, so, the basics are:

Train defence with melle, its much easier.
Pc is your friend, if you have the time and patience

nice guide 7/10

 

not bad

 

do you have any advice on what to wear for staking?

 

Depends on your stats. if you meet reqs for guthans...wear that, torags is an easy option...just remember, Its not all about range bonus while staking....I'd use rune knives, full torags, rune boots, obby shield/g shield/rune kite, glory/fury,black d vambs....just watever give best def bonus...

NOTE: I SAID ID GET MY PC BACK TODAY, THE GUY WIPED MY DRIVE AND I LOST EVERYTHING SO IM GOING TO HAVE TO WAIT TILL TMRW =(

 

9.5/10!
great guide also simple!
tanks owns big time

 

You could use long range or defence with a automagecast to train defence.
It is a easier way.

 

short and detailed..good guild keep it up 8/10

 

For p2p with 70 def you can wear Veracs skirt, Black d hide body, Veracs or Torags or Dharoks or Karils or Guthans helm. Instead of mage bow bring along an x bow too.

 

Prety nice 8/10

 

9.0/10 out of ten
