What direction should I take my account in?

Stats that matter:

 

Attack 70

 

Strength: 70

 

Defence: 72

 

HP: 82

 

Range: 90

 

Magic: 85

 

Prayer: 65 (getting 70 soon)

 

Summoning: 64

 

Slayer: 65

 

 

 

Combat: 99

 

 

 

Now, I was thinking of doing some tanking, stay at 70 strength and attack, get high Defence and higer Range and Mage, Then I thought, does my summoning level ruin any chances of that?

 

I'm not a massive fan of PvP, but I thought with a 70/70/99 tank, I could be quite effective, Is there any way I can incorporate my summoning level into this kind of tank, I am willing to raise it to any level needed.

 

 

 

Other than that, I was just thinking go for flat 99's.. turn it into a proper main, what are your views?

If it was me, I would make it into a main, but then again, I don't really enjoy combat, but in some ways I do regret not making myself into a pure, or at least into a more specialized combat style.

I actually started life as a 1 defence pure, got 90 range with it doing slayer etc, Then i realised, more than 80% of the game is off limits to pures, so I went main, but then the idea came to me, can i be "main-ish" and still do the occasional PvP trips with a 70/70/99 tank?

 

 

 

Is it even possible to be a tank like this effectivly?

most tanks are 70/70/99 cuase the 70 70 wont affect combat when your maxed with 99 range

Okay, thanks.. One last thing, what about my summoning and prayer levels, im assuming prayer being 70 wont matter TOO much since Piety will be a big help to a tank, but I fear I may have gained too many summoning levels to be effective, opinions?

I only know that maxed tanks get 99 pray so it shouldn't matter and if you pk in a pvp world summoning wont matter cause its taken off your combat level.

As for summoning, the only thing that'll affect you in pvp is if you carry a pouch. Other wise it won't matter at all. And summoning is very useful.

If you plan to "Dangerous" PvP alot, stick to 70 70 99 with 99 range and mage. It's probably good to get a few attack levels so that you can at least wield a GS. If you want to make it easier for you, stop at 96 mage for spellbookswap (barrage PLUS vengeance) or 94 mage for barrage/vengeance.

 

 

 

From that point, start training your strength only to 99.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you plan to do alot of PvM, Just do whatever you feel like it and make it into a main LOL. Probably alot of melee first just to make your life easier and cheaper.

 

 

 

 

 

Don't worry about the summoning, it's fine. There are certain check points to look out for. Terrorbirds are necessity. The next are flame/water/earth titans and then finally Unicorns. Both can be useful in PvP and PvM. I guess you can count Steel titan as the final checkpoint but I consider that as the GOAL (99). So either shoot for these levels or keep your summoning as loowwwwww as possible.

 

 

 

I used to put checkpoints at tortoise and bunyips but.... Turtles are expensive and Bunyips are replaced by Enhanced Excalibur. Plus these two only are helpful in PvM really due to their cost and lack of true usefulness in PvP.
