####Dear People, i am new to these forums. My old friend hoplite1234 ([email protected]) asked me to post his guides on these forums, because he got banned. For anyone who doesnt believe me, please visit the following link to see it for yourself: http://hoplite1234.blogspot.com/2010/12/runescape-guides-on-sytheorg.html ######


A P2P Range Tank is more fun and exciting to make and pk with. Awesome P2P weapons are available, meaning higher hits and cooler videos. Better armour means less hits taken. Also, in P2P, countless bosses need to be tanked, meaning you will never be out of a job!




In this guide, I will not go over how you should train your account. Rather, i focus on the Range Tanker itself. I plan to write a Range guide in the future, but for now, search one up on google. Also, if you are new to PVP, i recommend you visit my guide "A Guide To PVP", or if you wish to make a F2P Range Tanker "Making A Range Tanker (F2P)"

Stats, Equipment, Inventory and Quest List

A P2P tanker does not differ much from your average F2P tanker. The only major change is the requirement of a mage level, which shall be explained later.




Stats of a P2P Tanker:

99 Range

99 Defence

94 Magic

70 Strength

70 Attack

99 Hitpoints

52 Prayer




Please note, these stats are for a maxed range tanker. If i were you, i would make a 75 defence tanker, since they are a lower combat level (around 90-92) and can fight zerkers and own them.




The Equipment of a P2P Tanker




Helm: Verac's Helm/ Torag's Helm/ Helm of Neizinot

Amulet: Ranging Amulet/ Glory

Cape: Ava's Attractor

Arrows: Dragon Bolts (e) if you can afford them / Runite Bolts

Torso: Karil's Top/ Black Dragon hide body

Legs: Verac's Skirt/ Torag's Legs/ Rune Plate Legs

Boots: Dragon Boots/ Climbing Boots/ Snake Skin Boots




Weapon: Rune Crossbow (other weapons will be explained later)

Shield: Obby Shield/ Granite Shield/ Rune Kiteshield



If you are using a Hand Cannon, use the same armour setup, but replace the cape slot with a Skillcape or some other cape with good bonuses. You will not need a shield (Hand Cannon is wielded in 2 hands). Also, buy Hand Cannon Shots for the ammo.





Please note that some of these items are well expensive, do not risk what you cannot afford to lose. For a guide to PVP itself, please go to my guide A Guide To PVP




Inventory of a P2P Tanker

1 x Law Rune

5 x Air rune

10 x Dragon Bolts (e)

2 x Morrigan's throwing axe/ javelin

1 x Super Defence Potion

1 x Prayer Potion

1 x Range Potion

Fill the rest of your inventory with Sharks or better foods, i prefer Rocktails, they have saved me dozens of times.




Quest List

For a P2P Tanker, there is 1 quest they must complete, Lunar Diplomacy. This is for the Vengeance spell, which can be cast at 94 magic. I also recommend completing the Fremminik Isles for the Helm of Neitzinot, which one can wear instead of a barrows helm. I also recomend that you complete the quests for Forgivness of the Chaos Dwarf in order to use the Hand Cannon (Big Hits)



Pking with a Hand Cannon

There are a few styles to pking with a hand cannon. The first, more simple one is to just fight with the hand cannon itself. The good thing about this is that you will get really high hits often, so possibly ending a fight after about 5 hits. If you start off with the special, it is possible to kill them in 2 hits. The only problem is that the cannon is rather slow.



The second style is to use a fast, one handed range weapon (Obby Throwing Rings, Rune Knives) while wielding a prayer book in the other hand. When your opponent gets to half health, you swithch to the Hand cannon and use the special to kill them. However, i find this style useless at high level pvp, and is better when fighting with a Hand Cannon Pure (Guide Coming soon!)



The third style i will cover is using a Magic Shortbow and Rune Arrows. When your opponents health is below half, like before switch to your Hand Cannon and kill them. This is better suited for high level pvp, but the switching is hard to perfect, and you may end up screwing up.



And that people, is all i have right now, please visit my website http://hoplite1234.blogspot.com/ every now and then to see new guides!
