The Destroyer is one of the Elite Archetypes in Metaphor: ReFantazio. It is built on damage-dealing, hitting harder than almost all other Archetypes. It uses skills to pulverize enemies, inflicting status elements at the same time. It is weak to both Light and Dark damage, but resistant to all forms of melee and physical damage: Strike, Piercing, and Slash.
The Destroyer is the final form of the Berserker Lineage. The Destroyer Archetype is a challenge for most players, due to its severe weaknesses and the high cost of its skills. But well-timed attacks can deal immense damage to enemies you face.
