Looking for the best Lost Ark Destroyer builds? Here are all of the skills you’ll need to dominate PvE and PvP battles as the powerful hammer-wielding Warrior.

Each of the advanced Warrior classes has its specific role, with the Berserker outputting huge damage, the Paladin acting as a healer, and the Gunlancer sponging attacks as the primary tank.
When it comes to the Destroyer, the class acts as a hybrid tank and damage dealer, giving you the opportunity to take on a bruiser playstyle.
Although your movement will be relatively slow when moving across the battlefield, the hammer-wielding warrior is capable of pulling and pushing enemies with gravity-bending abilities.
Not only that, the Destroyer acts as a perfect disruptor with countless attacks inflicting stagger damage. So, if you want a mixture of survivability, devastating damage, and gravity-based abilities, there’s no better class for you than the Destroyer.
