sf eles be warned, EotN is not the place for you. —The preceding awesome-sauce comment was added by Skakid9090. 03:35, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

not just SF. ANY fire nuker is basically screwed. there resistant to fire, and they dont burn. id suggest a lightning build (i wish i could bet my diablo 2 orbsorc into gw... :P. -TehBuG-

Ya, it's kinda crappy, considering my entire build is Fire magic.--§ Eloc § 04:07, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

i just tested with a hero ranger carring winter. a fire spell does the same damage weather on not its fire damage. turns out fire eles are just as screwed as any ele. looks like glyph of ele power and Intensity are a required part of EOTN for eles.... also, carry echos and E-blast. -TehBuG-

Are these guys weak to water magic spells?

no, they just have huge armor vs all elements from the looks of it. -TehBuG-

Destroyers have high resistance to everything, but they are slightly weaker to cold damage than other damage types.

In general, elementalists can be very powerful in GW:EN, so long as they are willing to change between different elements depending on what they're fighting. The Far Shiverpeaks and the dungeons found there have many creature types which are weak to fire damage, while destroyers and many of the creatures found in the fire dungeons are weak to cold damage.

How do you kill them beneath Lion's Arch?--§ Eloc § 04:03, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

um, you dont. you run away from them. -TehBuG-

Well I know that. I was just curious if there was a way you could kill them or are they to strong for anyone to kill?--§ Eloc § 16:02, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Anybody test if they count as demons for the purpose of Demonslaying or +Armor vs. Demons mods yet? Skuldnoshinpu 21:10, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Ogden sais in the hall of monuments that they are "fiendish" creatures. -TehBuG-

Destroyers are not demons, so they will not be affected by these modifiers. They have their own unique army and family.

personnaly i'm a bit dissappointed in this. The whole dwarven passive is dedicated to the title, and there's almost no destroyers in the game, if you don't count missions and quests then they're only in one dungeon and a challenge missions. I think its kinda lame to level a title to level 8, then only to wonder where all the destroyers are. skills like alcars alchemical acid work better on destroyers, as long as you are able to find destroyers of course.

deldrimor title and skills are for the quests after the three-pathed part of GW:EN's storyline. after gaining all those allies, you only fight against destroyers, nothing else. they don't appear in normal explorables, so they're harder to get. that's why deldrimor skills are overall better. - Y0_ich_halt 17:26, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

errm, harder to get? the only really hard ones are several from the norn (beating up a lvl 28 spirit spam boss and winning the tournament). the dwarven ones are plain easy except for attack on jalis camp, which can easily be solved by just standing at the upper stairs and fight only one wave. also once you completed the final missions you'll probably be around rank 3 or lower, thus it is very unnecessary that you rank your title up. also dwarven rank is the easyest to rank Rhydeble 19:27, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

You need R5 for the Dwarven armor.--§ Eloc § 19:32, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] External links

Isn't that a Destroyer of Thoughts in the "Kotaku: Screenshot labeled GWX-Destroyer, apparently depicting a Destroyer elementalist" link? 118.92.169.45 23:06, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

Would Ward of Harm be useful against these, as I assume that quite a few of them do fire damage. 92.8.50.167 15:01, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

It would probably only be useful against the Destroyer Tremor and the Destroyer of Lives. They're the only ones that do fire damage. Though it would make sense if they all did, considering they're made out of hot chunks of lave. XD -- Wandering Traveler 15:04, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
