Destroyer Class Guide (Orc) — strengths, skills and step by step
The Destroyer is the brute tank of the Orc race: tons of HP, heavy melee damage and a rage that grows the harder the fight gets. The complete guide for total beginners.
In short: The Destroyer is an Orc melee warrior built to dive into the middle of the fight, soak up punishment and hit back hard. It's the perfect class for anyone who likes being tough, simple to play and almost impossible to take down.
Picture the biggest, angriest fighter in the forest: a giant Orc who backs down from nothing. The Destroyer doesn't overthink — he charges in, faces the enemy head-on and pounds away until it drops. The more hurt he gets, the more dangerous he becomes.
Playing a Destroyer feels like being a living wall. You'll rarely die early, rarely fear a bigger monster, and you'll learn that patience and raw strength solve almost everything. It's one of the friendliest classes for newcomers to the server.

The Destroyer belongs to the Orc fighter line and follows a straightforward path of evolution: Orc Fighter (Starter) → Orc Raider (1st Class) → Destroyer (2nd Class). Each step unlocks new skills and makes the character tougher and stronger in melee combat.
Strengths
- Sky-high toughness (CON at the top): the Destroyer has the highest Constitution among all classes, which means he survives blows that would drop other characters. In practice, you live through situations that look hopeless.
- Enormous health pool: with around 4,120 HP at level 85, your health bar is one of the largest in the game. That gives you room to make mistakes, hold several enemies and rely less on healing.
- Brute Orc strength: with high STR, your melee hits land with real weight. Even basic attacks hurt, which makes solo farming far easier.
- Fury that rewards brawling: the kit has buffs that raise your attack and defense power during a fight, turning you into a growing threat as the brawl goes on.
- Simple and mistake-proof: no complicated mechanics to juggle. You switch on a few buffs, dive in and swing — perfect for learning the game without getting tangled up.
Weaknesses
- Almost no magic power (very low INT): the Destroyer deals no meaningful magic damage. Tip: don't even try to play around it — focus 100% on physical attack and gear that boosts melee damage.
- Below-average speed: he runs slower than many classes, so fleeing or chasing is harder. Tip: use the speed buff in his own kit and keep boots/items that help you move.
- Has to get close: being pure melee, he struggles against enemies who keep their distance. Tip: force the gap shut, use the terrain and aim to get right on top of the target as fast as possible.
- Little group support: he doesn't heal or buff allies in any significant way. Tip: play as the front line that holds the aggro while the rest of the group deals damage from afar.
Class-defining skills
- Power Strike — a strong single-target physical strike; it's your main damage button in the early levels.
- Iron Punch — another direct physical strike, great to alternate with Power Strike and keep the pressure on your target.
- Wild Sweep — a physical attack that adds extra damage during the fight.
- Rage — a buff that gives a special boost to your attack power; switch it on before facing stronger enemies or bosses.
- Battle Roar — a roar that instantly raises your maximum health, giving you even more breathing room in long fights.
- Zealot — a special defensive buff that reinforces your resistance; use it when you're taking heavy damage from several enemies.
- Chant of Haste — speeds up your attacks (cuts the time between hits), boosting your damage per second while farming.
- Chant of Wind Walk — increases your movement speed, helping offset the class's natural slowness.
- Recover HP / Recover MP — gradually restore health and mana over time, handy for staying on your feet between fights without burning through so many potions.
Attributes: what to prioritize
The Destroyer is all about hitting hard and enduring. That's why his main attributes already lean toward physical strength and toughness, and that's the direction you should reinforce with gear and bonuses.
- CON (Constitution): your greatest strength — it raises health and survivability. Keeping it high is what makes you nearly untouchable.
- STR (Strength): the heart of your physical damage. The more STR, the more each hit hurts.
- DEX (Dexterity): helps with critical chance and accuracy; a welcome secondary boost to land more hits and crit more.
- INT/WIT/MEN: practically irrelevant for the Destroyer — don't spend resources on magic.
Recommended gear
Since the attack type is melee (FIST), prioritize close-combat weapons with high physical damage. For defense, go with heavy armor — it matches the class's tank identity and greatly improves your resistance.
Early on, focus on always keeping your weapon upgraded (it's what raises your damage the most) and, right after, on improving your armor to handle tougher zones. Avoid spreading your resources thin: upgrade one good weapon at a time instead of several mediocre ones.
Step by step for beginners
- Create the character: choose the Orc race and the starter fighter class (Orc Fighter). This is where the whole Destroyer evolution begins.
- Do the first quests in the starting area: they teach the basics and hand you gear and adena so you don't start from zero.
- Turn on auto-hunt: enable automatic farming and let the character hunt on its own in zones of your level. That's how you level steadily while learning the game.
- Follow the professions in order: evolve from Orc Fighter (Starter) → Orc Raider (1st Class) → Destroyer (2nd Class). Each profession unlocks new skills and makes you stronger and tougher.
- Prioritize the right skills and buffs: learn Power Strike and Iron Punch early, then always switch on buffs like Rage, Chant of Haste and Battle Roar before the serious fights.
- Gather Adena and L-Coin: use auto-hunt, daily missions and the Season Pass to stack up currency — you'll need it to upgrade weapon and armor.
- Keep your weapon and armor up to date: whenever you can, upgrade the weapon first (more damage) and then the armor (more defense). This cycle is what unlocks better zones.
- Move up to stronger zones gradually: when farming gets too easy, switch your auto-hunt to a higher-level area and repeat the cycle.
Where to farm
- Auto-hunt on monsters of your level: the safest and most consistent way to level; let the character hunt on its own where the challenge is fair.
- Move to harder zones as you grow: as you gain health and damage, switch to stronger areas for more experience and better drops.
- Form a party for raids and bosses: the Destroyer shines as a front line in a group, holding enemies while allies deal damage.
- Use the Season Pass and daily missions: they're extra sources of experience, Adena and rewards that greatly speed up your progress.
Common beginner mistakes
- Trying to flee too much: since the Destroyer is slow, running rarely works — it's almost always better to stand your ground and use your high health to your advantage.
- Ignoring buffs: going into a fight without Rage, Chant of Haste or Battle Roar throws away much of your potential; switch them on before farming.
- Neglecting the weapon: pouring everything into armor and forgetting the weapon makes your farming slow. The weapon is your damage priority.
- Trying to play from range: the Destroyer is pure melee; insisting on distance only wastes the class.
This class is for you if…
- You like being tough and hard to kill, charging in front without fear.
- You prefer a simple, direct style without a thousand mechanics to manage.
- You enjoy brute force and the feeling of being the most durable character in the group.
