    To Late to Become a Ranged Tank?

    Hey there. I currently am leveling an Initiate Pure, however lately I was thinking maybe it would be easier to become a Ranged Tank because strength training is not as easy as Magic/Ranged training (Chinning/Bursting since my account is black marked for botting I have to play legit).

    My question is: is it too late to become a ranged tank with my attack and strength levels?

    Current Attack: 60
    Current Strength: 78

    If I did become a Ranged tank I would want 70 Attack for whip (defence training). This would put me at a combined Attack and Strength of 148.

    So basically is it too late? My end stats would look something like this:

    70 Attack
    78 Strength
    75/99 Defence
    99 Range
    94 Magic
    90+ Hp
    52 Prayer

    All help would be appreciated.

    Combined before you're melee based

    With 1 attack and strength as a maxed range tank with 52 prayer you'd be level 104. It would take 149 strength and attack levels to level your combat, if you kept 60 attack you'd have to get 91 strength to level your combat to 105.

    Hope this helps!

    Thanks, I was thinking 70 attack would be better than 60 because of whip. Isn't whip A LOT better for defence training?

    It's not too much of a difference. The best stats for a tank includes 75 attack for the staff of the dead, but it isn't a crucial piece of equipment since it doesn't share the damage bonus that the staff of light over the master wand like it had in pre-eoc

    the max in 07 is 148 combined attack and str before you start gaining combat levels from attack and str if u are range based so no you're still good to go

    I realize that my stats are alright right however, I feel like my attack needs to be 70 in order for me to train defence effectively. I can't get 70 attack because my strength will be 79 by the time I fully quest for a range tank putting my combine at 149 (70 attack 79 strength)

    Get 70 attack. The training will be much more smoother and effective.

    I realize this however, by the time I'm fully quested it will put my combined attack/strength at 149, is this technically a"failed" tank?

    No. Depends on what you define being a failed tank is. You will be at 104 combat which is the combat of most tanks. With those stats you will be fine.
