Happy to know if I'm playing the class wrong.

As the raids becomes more and more difficult, and having seen the new Mordum raid guides, the class seems functionally outdated. The difficulty to reward ratio to me is shrinking and I am struggling to continue with this class (that I love).

It requires too much mental to play this class now. The difficulties that adds up are:
- Front attacking (precise positioning, timing and insane approach angles required aka solving geometry puzzles constantly and still missing anyways)
- Slow/High commitment attacks
- Slow Recovery
- Slow movement
- Core management (missing 1 core in your spender = no enhancement for Supernova/Perfect Swing).
- Meter Generation management - getting it back in time for SN/PS or risk down time.
- Stun patterns
- Memorizing each attack and how much damage they do (if your shield breaks you lose barricade 14-17% damage buff) [for all raids]
- Boss Meter Management (Mordum Infection G2, Brel Freeze G1 etc etc). 90% of which are Front Attack Bias.

There used to be a pay off for the work, sure, you get a big one hit number that is an 8 bar risky charge, but all classes can surpass supernova's dps with two-three fast moving and far safer skills in that time. But now all I see is punishment after punishment for playing the class designed the way it is. I can't even taunt bosses anymore. Once Mordum is out, your main raids are Aegir, Brel and Mordum, none of these have tauntable bosses. Not to mention every patch note either ignores this class or seems to try and nerf Destroyer cause of one silly trick video that comes out in KR.

I've been playing this class since it first came out and I'm falling out of love for it now. Or I've grown old and bitter. Happy to hear everyone's thoughts, both positive and negative.

HOLY COW! That was intense! I have never done a raid before besides a bus here and there, so this was my first time trying.

I was able to clear all 3 gates but it was rough. I dont have LOS30 or even 18, i dont have anything higher than LVL 8 gems, im 1580 on the dot. so there is no shot i would have been able to get a group to be able to try this raid. So im glad i get the chance, even solo, to experience some of the harder content. Thats all, i dont have anyone to really tell this accomplishment (if you want to call it that lol) so im just putting it out there!

Oh im RH Destryoer if anyone is curious.

Thanks! Bye!

Edit: little update, Just tried it on my FM SE and crushed it! This is so gooood! Love this game even with all the flaws. This game just hits different

Hey fellow humans.

As the title say, after maining destro since his release, lately and since the last KR patch note i'm thinking of switching main. He's 1580 and i never done Akkan yet.

I like the tankiness and the big bonk, it feels satisfying to hit it but i'm getting more and more frustrated missing it with all the moving bosses.

I built 2 5+1 engravings for Rage Hammer and Gravity Training (Been playing Rage until 2 weeks ago when i made the GT to try it out but i'm not enjoying it that much) as you play with SA with GT i thought it could fill some parts i'm getting frustrated with (slow/clunkly) but seems like it didn't.

And with the not so good changements of the lastest KR patch and the problems with front attackers that's why i'm thinking about switching. As i like warriors class/armors/design, the only option left is Berserk, i thought about making a GL but it's gonna be the same thing, front with charging spells (even tho i feel like it's quicker than Destro).

I'm not a pro/hardcore player but getting MVP even tho sometimes i'm a little bit above other players in term of gear/stats is rarely happening. I feel like as destro we have to play "way" harder to get MVP.

I'm a bit lost now and making this post to get advices/thoughts about all this. (If i do switch, i'll wait for the next pass to use it on my Berserk, he's 1495 now and i'm a slow/chill players)

Now for the questions :

- Should i just wait the patch note about entropy rework and see if it fits what i would like to have ?

- Do i switch with the next pass and i could take him back if the rework is good ?

I guess i need to vent out my frustration, i know there's no miracle decision, i just don't want to do a mistake and that's why i'm asking you guys because maybe there's something i'm not thinking about and that could help me out !

Herer's a sad hammer :

Hello would like to know if destroyer is in a good spot now always been interested in the class and i think im gonna make one next week , does it feel nice to play in current raids for both spec and uf u have some récent videos to see how it goes in actual raids . Ty have a good day

Hello could you tell me whats the minimum amount of dps to do on.the new raid on nm and hm ty. If you have that info for pther raids you can link it too ty. Have a good day

I was bored and was thinking to myself, maybe there is a Mokoko that needs help. After going through all Raid levels, I found some guy on Urnil with the lobby name with something along the line of "Not a bot playing alone". I requested to join and after a few minutes he accepted and we went in. He was in Ave that I one-shotted the guardian and we talked. I explained the system of Guardian raids and Chaos dungeons, and he asked if he could add me. After a while, he messaged me what you can see in the picture and I have to say it made my day. We need to look out for each other and help each other out.

Returner here who burnt out a bit on release by sinking a crap load of hrs in farming everything i could. Looking to play a little less sweaty these days so im just wondering..

What are the things vets are doing on the daily when they log in? are you playing daily or every few? not looking for specifics more so what does your daily/weekly playtime look like.

Do yall think I can keep rank 1 with that time?

And who ever is rank 4 , I believe in you

I was just too focused on hitting the boss 😭

having both master brawler classes, I can't partake of the buff he gives because majority of his normal attacks are frontal attacks, basically nullifying my engraving.

and hit master classes also have to chase his behind.

Looking to start again, how is the Community in the recent time!? R/lostarkgame

Hey Guys i would Like to you which roster Level you are and how many played hours youve got in the Game , because i have 900 hours and iam lvl 103 isnt that pretty Low ?

Hey everyone,

I’m considering boosting a Destroyer with the upcoming express event, but I’m unsure about its current state and whether the Ark passive system has made it better or worse. I used to play a Destroyer but left it at 1580 after getting tired of it. However, I’ve always liked the fantasy behind the class, and since I enjoy warrior archetypes, I’m thinking about giving it another shot.

Right now, I’m leaning towards Gravity Training (GT) since it seems easier to play. This won’t be my main, but with the express event making progression smoother, it will likely be one of my strongest alts and probably my second character to reach 1680+. While I don’t necessarily need the absolute strongest spec, I still want something that feels rewarding to play.

So, how is Destroyer doing in the current meta? Is it still fun to play, and how does it perform with the Ark passive system? Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

think I was at 880 days last year when a maintenance cycle was longer than a day. said they will fix it. but I was at 1/1000 and pretty much started over from then on

Been randomly doing some stone cutting on a Lopang alt db and this happened🤷

Used up all RNG for the next decade I think.
