I am curently trying to get 70 defence for barrows. The problem is: I am a ranger. Well, as I think most of you know, longrange gives horible XP to defence AND range. I decided to go melee to get there. These are my current stats: As you can see, with 10+ more range levels AND 70 defence, my charecter would be alot better. ANYWAYS, The way I was planing on getting to 70 defence, was, like I said melee. I was going to get 60 attack and str, then work on defence until it's 70. The reason I am posting this, is to ask, what way is best? Should I get 50 str and 50 att, or just use range? Please help me! EDIT: At the time, I am f2p, but I plan on going back to p2p sooner or later.
