Runescape Clan Wars Tanking - Magic Tanking

The Magic tanker

Introduction
A magic tanker in clan wars is effective against warriors, and can annoy the opposition by binding and running or hugging. Strong magic spells combined with prayer make a formidable opponent.
NOTE: This is a suggestive guide only. You may be able to find other alternatives, or just clan war using your own devices.

Suggested stats:
At least 59 magic (to use fire blast)
At least 60 defence (to withstand attacks)
At least 43 prayer

Equipment and inventory
A magic tanker should wear the following equipment and have the appropriate inventory:
Full combat robes
(Alternatives: Full wizard set, full Runecrafting robes set)
Staff of Fire
(Alternatives: Water staff, earth staff, air staff)
Amulet of Magic
(Alternatives: Amulet of Power)
Colourful boots
(Alternatives: Fighting boots, any other boots)
Any kind of gloves
(Alternatives: Green d’hide vambraces)
Rune Berserker
(Alternatives: Rune Kiteshield, Anti-dragonfire shield)
Optional: Explorer’s Ring 3
(Alternatives: Explorer’s Ring 2, Explorer’s Ring 1)

In their inventory there should also be the following:
One hundred (100)+ death/chaos runes. This may be a bit too less.
Two thousand (200)+ air runes. NOTE: These aren’t needed if you’re using air blast.
Twenty four (24) Swordfish/Anchovy Pizzas. NOTE: Lobsters will work as well, although they won’t heal as much.
Rune 2h. You never know when it might come in handy.
Strength Potion.
Optional: Full melee gear.
Optional: Binds.

Prayers
When fighting, magic tankers should not bother using any boost prayers, as the blast won’t hit anymore anyway. Instead, they should save their prayer points for Protection prayers, for when a Warrior or ranger decides to attack them.
