User blog comment:SilverHexxitFights/Terraria Theorized: Why is Destroyer so easy?/@comment-4661596-20150221215137

For me, when i did a full playthrough over again not long ago, I found Skeletron Prime to be quite a bit easier to defeat than the Destroyer. I didn't need any strategy with Prime, just stand up on a platform and shoot his headlike mad until he died. Dodging his attacks were not too difficult. The Destroyer on the other hand, was quite annoying for me and took several attempts before I beat him. The more you hit his massive body, the more probes release and I found this to be overwhelming with lasers hitting me from every direction. It was quite hard to dodge all the lasers while trying to also focus on his body. It was only until I used a specific arena, was I able to avoid the lasers and take him down much easier. Lastly, the Twins were the most intense, but if I recall, I didn't have to try them as many times before beating them than I did with that Destroyer.
