Destroyer

Destroyer is one of four A-tier Legendary traits. Like Hunter / Master / Zombie, the kit is balanced-offensive but does not match Flash or Reaper’s specialization.

Treat Destroyer as a stepping-stone trait during Mythic-trait grinding — it is consistently competitive in any mode but never best-in-slot.

Status

Stat profile

Per src/content/tier-snapshots/index.json traits snapshot, the Destroyer notes field reads “Offensive (Legendary).” The snapshot does not enumerate per-stat magnitudes; per docs/04-tier-list.md §2.3.2 the Destroyer row lists rarity Legendary and stat bundle not specified with offensive notes. The four A-tier Legendaries (Hunter, Destroyer, Master, Zombie) share verified (FRVR, AllThings) credibility per docs §2.3.2 but no public source publishes their stat tables — only the S-tier (Flash, Reaper, Godly) carry enumerated stats.

Where this trait shines

Per docs/04-tier-list.md §1.2.1 (Raid → Reaper matrix) and §1.2.2 (Survival/Infinite → Flash matrix), Rolasyum’s trait/ability matrix names no A-tier Legendary in the recommended slots — both modes anchor on the Mythic pair. Destroyer’s situational role is offensive bridge while Mythic Flash/Reaper has not yet rolled. Per docs/04-tier-list.md §1.3 (Lunatic 12-weapon upgrade table), the abilities with Base 7/0 (pure-DMG) allocation — Shadow Monarch, Saiyan, Destructive Fists, Atomic, Head of Hei — pair best with an offensive Legendary because cooldown is already minimized.

Tier positioning

Per the tier-snapshots ranking, Destroyer is rated A with sources_supporting: 2 (FRVR + AllThings.how). Per docs/04-tier-list.md §3 (Cross-Verification), the A-tier Legendary cluster (Hunter / Destroyer / Master / Zombie) carries consistent placement across Tier 2 sources and Tier 1 Discord — none upgraded or downgraded in the cross-source log. Destroyer shares Legendary rarity (5% per docs §2.3.1 gacha schema) with the other three A-tier Legendaries.

Synergies & comparison

Destroyer overlaps with Hunter (also “Balanced offensive” Legendary per docs/04 §2.3.2) and Master (also “Offensive”). Per docs/04 §2.3.2, the offensive-Legendary trio (Hunter / Destroyer / Master) are interchangeable in tier — pick whichever rolls first. Zombie, the fourth A-tier Legendary, is the lifesteal-heavy variant. Per docs/04-tier-list.md §1.4 (AE Per-Trait Upgrade Path), Tier 1 upgrade guidance covers Reaper (2 CD / 5 DMG or 7 CD pure) and Flash (1 CD / 6 DMG); Destroyer’s upgrade path is not enumerated in the public docs, suggesting general offensive Legendary template. Replace Destroyer with Flash for Survival/Infinite or Reaper for Raid once Mythic rolls; until then, Destroyer is a competitive offensive bridge especially on Saiyan, Atomic, and Shadow Monarch.
