Introduction
A tank in Runescape would be defined as a person with lower attack and strength and higher defence. They also have high range, mage, or both. Tanks have an upper hand as they have high defence, allowing them to take minimum damage but with range or mage deal damage to their opponent.
F2P Tanks
An F2P tank normally is a ranger who wears green dhide top + rune helm and legs. There are also Mage F2p Tanks who wear full armor such as full adamant with staff to effectively mage and take minimum damage. Their stats are usually as follows
Range Tank (F2P)
1-30 Attack and Strength
40 Defence
40+ Range
1-43 Prayer
Mage Tank (F2P)
1-30 Attack and Strength
30-40 Defence
40+ Magic
1-43 Prayer
P2P Tanks
Tanks in P2P are normally what people think of when tank comes up. They have the advantage of barrows armor. So not only would one of these have massive defence bonus, but also good range bonus (Karils Crossbow, Crystal bow, etc.) Their stats are usually as followed:
1-70 Attack (going over 70 is not recommended)
1-70 Strength (same as attack)
70+ Defence (some keep at 70 to preserve combat level)
70+ Range (For Karils)
70+ Mage (optional but can be very good)
52 Prayer (Smite)
F2P Tank Defence Training
All I really need to tell you is where to train defence. (Info on range training here) To start, grab some full iron and a prefered iron weapon and head over to lumbridge cows.
1-10 Defence
Cows
So you got your Black Armour, now head over to the Monastery!
10-40 Defence
Monks
You can now wear Rune! If you didn't level strength or attack, you should be a whopping 16 combat. Good job.
P2P Tank Defence Training (Continued from 40 Defence)
Alright, so now you're 40 Defence, you can do Dragon Slayer if you want to wear green d'hide top. After that, you could train your attack and strength to 40 (optional.) Before doing any ranging in members, make sure to do Animal Magnetism Then get that range to 70! Moving right along - grab your Rune Armor and best weapon and head over to Rock Crabs!
40-70 Defence
Rock Crabs - Yes, Rock Crabs are definitely one of the best sources of defence exp!
At this points you can wear Barrows Armour. I'd recommend having 700-1000k saved for a Tank's favorite barrows pieces - a Torag helm (300,000-400,000gp) and a Verac Skirt (400,000-600,000gp.)

The Pest Control Strategy (40+ Combat req)
By using my PC Strategy, you can gain multiple levels such as Defence and Range at the same time. It's simple - train one of the skills during the game such as Defence. Then with the points you earn, you can get another skill leveled. Also, the gp earned from winning games can be used to buy things such as armor, arrows, etc.
