The Destroyer is a fan favorite to a big portion of the Lost Ark community. He looks badass and cool while at the same time dealing with every boss headfirst. Here is a little guide on how to better understand him as well as some builds. Let’s get started.
Destroyer Guide | Balance Patch Version Hammer of Rage – Lost Ark
This is a class where whenever you’re going to a boss fight, you are squeezing your eyes to spot if you have a Destroyer in your team. He is a high damage dealer and a very good tank. He is the 2nd warrior class that is very capable of dealing with strong NPCs.
He uses his big hammer to do a lot of damage to a lot of enemies. Very capable of big crowd control as well as being the damage taker when fighting bosses.
His main thing is acquiring gravity cores or orbs, from using blue skills. When he has orbs to spend, he can use them for using purple skills. That means that more cores mean more damage. The more purple skills are used, that much more will the blue bar be filled which is used for activating Gravity Z Mode. Every time this is used, that much more the Destroyer gets stronger and has a better defense.
For a lot of people, Super Charge and Charge Skill Builds are the way to go. But there is way more than just this for the Destroyer. This means you are preparing everything just for one attack that might go completely wrong.
Just make sure you go headfirst toward your bosses. Use all your skills parallel blue to purple as mentioned above. It is a very simple class to play as. A very good build to use is the Gravity Destroyed Build.
