My pure is currently 63 range, and 1 def, 45 atk, 44 str. I am wondering if I should tank. And if so, what quests should i do to gain the required level.(40, 43, 45; this is for short-term).
 
1 def pures usually get raped more then tanker ;)
 
you get raped more if you're 1 def, but you'll do a lot more damage. I kept my ranger at 1 def hoping that jagex would actually do something similar to old wildy, but when they didn't it's a lot better to get your def up
 
I personally like pures, pvp isnt too bad for 1 def. If your going to get def just do the basic quests first, d slayer, fremmy trials probably should do mm for the xp and a quest in rfd that involves def xp i think nature spirit
 
i just finished drag slayer on my range pure, will be finishing MM shortly for 40 def!
 
I would stay 1defence for a while until you get your stats up higher, then maybe consider changing.
 
Tanks are bad unless your rich, if your rich tanking can make you richer ;). To be a tank you have to have very nice armor and weapons. But those very nice armor and weapons get you MUCH better stuff. If you want to be a tank you better worship Bounty Hunter and solo it up. Or get a clan and do PvP. That about sums it up i think.
 
Tank > 1 def.

Just imagine a fight, a tanker and a 1def pure. The 1 def pure wouldn't hit much and would get rapidly hit. So I say tanker.

The thing is, we know someone with higher combat will have a high chance of beating someone with a low combat,
we're debating weather it is better to play as a tank, with higher level'ed opponents,
but have they advantage of high defence blocking yourself or
stay pure with lower level'ed opponents , but this disadvantage of no defence to safe guard from people
 
I think I am going to stay at 1 def until after low crator. Or maybe tank after around 80 range or so.
 
Stay 1 def.. I got def at 91 range and it completely ruined the acc. While it's true, you take more damage with 1 def-- You're only 70-80 cb.. Nm dmg for that compared to what you can do. Getting def bumps you up to 100 cb or so and 80% of whippers can waste you (unless you're very lucky with d bolt specs) and like 99% of dh'ers will completely waste you.. 1 def 4 lyfe
 
depends what kind of pking style you like.
me myself find pking on pures more fun, but tankers would have more income i persume...
