Tagging

From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape

Tagging is when two or more players who are part of a team take turns killing the same opponent in a single-way combat area. It is most commonly used on PvP worlds and clan wars, but is also sometimes used in other situations. Tagging is usually frowned upon and is widely considered to be dishonourable, but can give the player a big advantage.

[edit] Examples

Normal tagging: 1 fights 3 in single-way combat. 1 is low on health and starts eating. This means that no one is attacking 3, therefore 2 can attack and kill 3. This is usually used when two players of a lower level team up on a higher levelled player.

Switch tagging: 1 and 2 are friends. 1 attacks 3. When 1 is busy eating, 2 attacks 3. When 2 starts eating, 1 attacks 3 again. Usually used in PvP worlds or Bounty Worlds.

Opponent stealing: 1 is attacking a lesser demon and stops to eat then 2 attacks the lesser demon and kills it and takes the loot

Run while they eat: 1 is fighting 2 and knows that he/she will lose. 2 stops to eat. 1 quickly runs/teleports.

Suicide tagging: 1 attacks 2 1 is losing and cannot run away. 3 (who is not risking anything) attacks 2. 1 escapes while 2 is busy killing 3

Healing Tagging: 1 attacks 2 while 3 heals 1 when 3 needs to bank for more food 1 switches with 4 to kill 2.
