Gathering Materials for the Destroyer
To begin crafting the Destroyer, you’ll need to gather the necessary materials.
First and foremost, you’ll require a sturdy base, such as iron or steel, to provide a solid foundation.
Next, gather a variety of sharp and durable blades, like titanium or diamond, to ensure maximum damage potential.
Don’t forget to acquire a powerful energy source, such as plutonium or uranium, to fuel the Destroyer’s devastating attacks.
Fetid Baghnakhs are a melee weapon with short range but incredibly high attack speed.
Additionally, gather electronic components, such as circuits and wires, to control the weapon’s functions.
It’s also crucial to obtain protective gear, including a reinforced suit and helmet, to shield yourself from any potential harm.
Hitting more than one segment at once deals massive damage to the Destroyer.
Finally, don’t overlook the importance of gathering tools like wrenches and screwdrivers for assembly.
Hallowed bars can create three new weapons without any additional materials.
With these materials in hand, you’ll be ready to embark on the journey of crafting the ultimate Destroyer.
Damage output
This means that with no knock back, you can maximize the damage output of Fetid Baghnakhs.
As for damage, Rage and Wrath Potions will increase your critical strike chance and damage output respectively.
The most profitable way to sell Souls of Might is to combine them with Hallowed Bars and Souls of Light to craft Light Discs for resale, earning 10 Gold compared to a little over 5 Gold for the base materials.
The pink slime blocks are used to prevent fall damage, so as to allow wings to be replaced with a damage-enhancing accessory.
Looking at the displayed DPS will give a much better estimate of how quickly a given strategy kills the boss than will looking at the in-game time, or at how much time is left on buffs.
Accessing Crafting Stations

To access crafting stations, you’ll need to locate and interact with them using a specific key or button prompt. These stations are scattered throughout the game world, and each one is dedicated to a specific type of crafting, such as blacksmithing, alchemy, or enchanting.
When you approach a crafting station, a prompt will appear on the screen indicating which key or button you need to press in order to access it. Once you interact with the station, a crafting menu will open, allowing you to see the different items that you can create.
From here, you can select the item you want to craft, provided you have the necessary materials. Crafting stations are essential for creating powerful weapons, armor, and potions, so be sure to keep an eye out for them during your adventures.Following the Crafting Recipe
To successfully craft the Destroyer, you must carefully follow the crafting recipe. This recipe consists of specific materials and their quantities that you need to gather and combine.
Start by collecting 20 Souls of Might, which can be obtained by defeating the Hardmode boss The Destroyer.
Next, gather 5 Soul of Frights and 5 Soul of Sights, dropped by Skeletron Prime and The Twins respectively.
You’ll also need 15 Souls of Night and 45 Adamantite Bars or Titanium Bars.
Once you have all the required materials, head to a Mythril or Orichalcum Anvil and open the crafting interface.
Select the Destroyer recipe and craft it using the specified materials.
Following the recipe diligently will ensure a successful creation of the Destroyer.
Crafting the Destroyer
Now, combine the gathered materials on a Mythril or Orichalcum Anvil to craft the Destroyer. This powerful weapon requires 20 Souls of Might, 5 Soul of Fright, and 5 Soul of Sight, which can be obtained by defeating the mechanical bosses in Hardmode.
Once you have all the necessary materials, head to your anvil and interact with it. Select the option to craft the Destroyer, and in an instant, the fearsome weapon will be yours.
The Destroyer is a massive worm-like creature that can be summoned using a Mechanical Worm. It’s a formidable boss that poses a great challenge, but with the Destroyer in your arsenal, you’ll have a better chance at defeating it and reaping its rewards.
The arena is small enough that you will be able to easily walk across it and use a grappling hook for vertical movement, potentially freeing up accessory slots.
Body segment
Low Damage Weapons: The Destroyer’s main body segments have 30 defense, which is 15 points of damage reduction on normal mode.
Avoid both of these, and don’t be silly and just stand on the segments – they do contact damage that can wear you down.
Most magic weapons that are piercing should be viable for magic users. 4Spawn him in.You need to make a Mechanical Worm, which is crafted from 6 rotten chunks, 5 iron bars, and 7 Souls of Night.
Boost of health
The Heart Lanterns will give you an extra boost of health when fighting against the Destroyer and his minions, while Campfires provide a healing effect over time.
The extra damage will be much appreciated, especially considering that the Destroyer’s main body segments have 30 defense (and are immune to ichor), compared to the Wall of Flesh’s central mouth, which only has 15 defense.
You should build several layers of platforms in the sky; many types of wings are available at this point in the game, so getting there won’t be a problem.
Using the Nurse as a source of health is unreliable when fighting the Destroyer as this boss will very quickly kill any Town NPCs that come too close to its burrowing path.
As with several items, the Mechanical Worm has multiple crafting recipes (two in total) due to some items in the recipe allowing substitutes. •• “Obtain a boss-summoning item.” boss-summoning item.
Star statues and a star in a bottle will help with your mana.
There should be at least 4 layers of platforms, and each of them should be 5-7 tiles vertically apart.
Verifying and Equipping the Destroyer
Once you have crafted the Destroyer, it’s important to verify that you have all the necessary materials and equip the weapon to prepare for the upcoming battle.
The best accessory options for fighting the Destroyer are as follows.
Start by double-checking your inventory for the required components. Ensure that you have the Destroyer’s body, the blade, and the handle. Without these essential parts, the weapon won’t function properly.
Once you have verified the presence of all the materials, it’s time to equip the Destroyer. Attach the blade securely to the body, making sure it’s aligned correctly. Then, firmly affix the handle to the body, ensuring a tight fit.
Once the weapon is fully assembled, perform a test swing to ensure its stability and functionality. With the Destroyer properly verified and equipped, you’re now ready to face your adversaries with confidence.
Time weapon
It may seem tempting to use a high damage-over-time weapon, such as the Nimbus Cloud, where the Destroyer spawns; however, this should be avoided.
Make a small box filled halfway with honey and put your enemy statue of choice inside.
In reality, classes cease to have meaning here, as the petals can be procured from the weapons of any class, and as you are not relying on the damage from your actual weapons you would be better off using a weaker, faster weapon from another class than a slow one from your own.
Such preparation includes a boss arena, the most suitable equipment, and weapons, and understanding the attack patterns of the Destroyer.
The Hellwing Bow could work too, if you have sufficient damage boosts.
With sufficient damage boosts, this is embarrassingly effective.
Any weapon that can hit enemies multiple times or damage multiple segments at once will have a much higher effectiveness against The Destroyer compared to single-target weapons.A particularly effective weapon is the Daedalus Storm bow used with Holy Arrows.Another useful (although somewhat dangerous) strategy is to swing aflailin the correct positioning (specifically when it loops around the player) for heavy damage.
Backup weapon
You may want a backup weapon (and plan) in case you can’t reach it before it uncoils.
Nonetheless, having a halfway decent backup weapon will help you deal with the probes.
As the screenshot suggests, the boulders will frequently spare launched probes, making a backup weapon highly recommended..
You will likely want a backup weapon to deal with stray probes, along with wings to more easily reach the nodes (if aerial).
You can craft a Mechanical Worm at a My thril Anvil with 10 Souls of Might, 10 Souls of Fright, and 1 Hallowed Bar.
