From your manifest, I would try the Claymore or the Piranha and the Saber or Striker.
Personally, after several builds tried, I prefer a no grenade build (66066) because I find the Hawk missile launcher really helpful, it staggers, it forces the enemy to dodge and it usually makes the kill when I'm gunning down some bad guy (useful with Phantoms).

Thanks!

Thank you everyone! I have been just murdering with the Revenant with the Pirannha as backup (though I haven't really been using that).  I'm about to start some Gold matches and see how that plays out.

Arsenal packs are the best way to acquire all of the guns I do not have yet, correct?

The Revenant is good, I just can't stand the cheesy screen shake, but if that's working for you then go for it.  And yes, in my experience the Arsenal Pack seems to drop weapons a bit more, but honestly it's hard to tell.  Arsenal Packs had a decent drop rate for me, that's all I can say.

Striker.

Or Typhoon, Piranha, PPR.

Scrub. Cool kids use the Adas.

I wouldn't know, I've outgrown the ecks bawks peasants.

Using a striker or adas will get you promply kicked. 

Why?

Have yet to see a destroyer with a striker or Adas who isn't missile glitching.

If you want silver unlocks go spectre pack. Gold and ultra rare guns, go arsenal.

What's "missile glitching"?

The only legit way to ever solo anything.

To be blunt, I keep getting well...destroyed...with him.  I don't know what it is, but I have been doing really ******-poor.  I have a solid 6/0/6/6/6 build that I found on these very forums, and that isn't the issue, I think.

What weapons do you equip with yours?  I don't have Reegar or Harrier yet.

Any tidbits of advice are appreciated!  =)

fitness is overrated. you should kill the enemy as fast as possible.

Pft. Noob. You can't activate the missile glitch while soloing. L2Glitch scrub.

[MGW7]

It is possible though abuse of computer logic to make certain weapons (striker and adas most commonly)
fire every shot as a cobra missile without actually costing the missiles, when doing this the destroyer is the only class able to recover ammo reliably,

so you go around one shotting everything for fifteen or so minutes and making the game insanely boring, don't do it.

Well damn.
Guess I'll just cheat my way to a solo on peesee then.

[Qui-Gon Glenn]

Raider.

Always march towards the enemy on non-objective waves steadily. Plan on using all of your Thermal Clip packs.

Equip Shock Trooper Gear, try to take lines that offer soft cover, and abuse RHA. With the Raider, I do not run from Banshees. I shoot them and nade them to stop them short. Then I shoot a clip, RC and 2 shots shes dead. Your shields can handle the Warp ball she flings at you... just ignore it.

Trash mobs? Lol grenades.

EDIT: my build skips hawk missile launcher.

Much easier to cheat on peesee than ecks bawcks or peeus3. How else will anybody get the creds for all those equipment packs to replenish the medigel those scrubs make you use up cause they suk?

Equip Grenade Capacity or Shock Trooper Upgrade (or the AR equivalent) and use grenades liberally. Seriously. The Destroyer's multifrag grenade is awesome, and it will save your life many a time. Because a Destroyer on DM can't dodge and is super slow, this is an excellent wave to ward off Phantoms/Pyro/Hunters/Marauders, and also gives you excellent crowd control. Spec them for radius, max grenades, and count. You don't need to kill them outright, just stagger them for long enough to be able to finish them off with your Piranha.

[iamchaossthought]

Any advice for Gold/Platinum tactics with this class? Is it a viable Platinum class?

[andresft]

It absolutely is, but I'd wait till you had a PPR or a Typhoon (preferably IV or above for Plat). A Piranha X also helps a lot. Though some prefer the Hawk missile launcher, I, like I said, favor the 'nades (specced the way I said above).

Yep it is very viable. However, you have to be very aware of the synch killers and start moving away earlier than you would with other classes. With no dodge and the movement speed penalty he is even more synch kill bait than a krogan.

Good advice.  I have the nades specced the same, except damage in exchange of radius.  Prob should've done radius, but too late nowwwwww

It's not your fault. He is a rather weak character.

He's only good with a couple of weapons (Typhoon, PPR, Pirahna, Raider). For every other weapon there exist at least one other character who is much better than the Destroyer.

[BobGraceful30]

Lots of good advice here, I use the Harrier as part of my clutch kit, but any AR is good really. If/when you get the Executioner run it as you second weapon: Dev mode gives you two shots, which is insane and lots of fun.

[Maurader Sackboy]

I've got the same problem with the Destroyer on gold+ -- can't keep alive. There are so many other characters I use better than him, even for heavy weapons, that I've given up on him for now.

I've found what seems to be a sweet spot with him, using the Revanant.  I hate having to spam 'nades though. 

[Serker31]

Piranha with smart choke and accuracy evo in Devastator mode, skip launcher. After that's it is basically point and shoot gameplay.

Your post is dreadfully ignorant.

The destroyer stands shoulder to shoulder with the GI in terms of damage output, possibly the only character who can.

He's designed to be used with automatic weapons, and the grenades, free-choice of a secondary weapon, etc makes him powerful and flexible with no drawbacks whatsoever.

The destroyer was, and probably still is, the single most overpowered character in the game.

-Stagger immunity; few people recognise just how big of a deal this is.

-Fire rate, accuracy, clip size bonuses; vastly boosting the capabilities of any automatic weapon beyond the level that is attainable to most other classes; the GI being the only comparable kit

-High passive weapon damage; 52.5% may not be as much as a cloaked infiltrator gets, but the bonus lasts all game, not for 3 second on/off cycles, so is perfectly capable of doing better damage in the long run.

-Has grenades which can clear entire spawns with impunity, giving him insane mook killing ability even before you factor in his weapons

-Starts with high shields, and has one "spec out of" power so you can max fitness, freeing you up to take an adrenaline module, completely compensating for the measly 10% movement speed penalty he suffers, whilst still having better damage output versus bosses than a GI and equivalent mook killing power.

-Zero cooldowns, leaving any and every weapon able to be chosen.



The destroyer is in no way a weak character. As for the other weapons kits, excepting the GI, none of them come even remotely close to the amount of damage that can be output by the destroyer.

Poke, if you hate having to spam nades for him, don't forget he has another awesome ability you can grab instead
