Advice for destroyer.

please help

storm bow + holy arrows will kill it real quick

[Why Try?]

Holy arrows (or jester) + storm bow. It's a 12 second fight.

[Alucard †]

Yep also did him with Daedalus Storm Bow + Holy Arrows.
Went down easily.

Remember to prepare a arena.
Standard one consisting of 2 or 3 long platform bridges spaced vertically from each other will do.

Crystal Vile Shard works well. It is the Hardmode equivalent of the Vilethorn and that is one of the best weapons against the EoW which is a very similar boss.

I haven't fought the Destroyer in a while, but I'll try to help.

Weapons with piercing abilities can be helpful, as they can hit multiple segments and deal more damage.
The daedalus stormbow with holy arrows shreds the destroyer, as even though it can't pierce, the amount of stars formed and arrows hit will prove to be very useful.
If I remember correctly, I was able to defeat the destroyer by staying in a box with a few openings to shoot/hit the destroyer. This will block some of the probes. If you are doing this, be sure to have ample room to avoid hitting the head.
Try not to get hit by the head of the destroyer, as it can deal a large amount of damage.
Be sure to have ample healing where your fighting. Have campfires, heart lamps, honey, and perhaps a nurse NPC.

mods with k.o weapon and weapons without nerfs. have fun!

[Reign]

Get a piercing weapon that can go through enemies, and make sure to destroy the pods that attack you. Other than that just get up high and make sure you know where the Destroyer is and it shouldn't be too hard.
