if you make a long bridge not too close to the ground to run along it helps alot. I use a gun for the battle and a lot of the time the way the destroyer moves and plunges towards the ground through your bridge, you can literally just stand in one spot, break a 2 space hole in your bridge and shoot him through the hole as he burrows for a bit then get out of his way when he decides to come up. being able to stand there and shoot him through the hole will also give you a chance to gather yourself and reheal. His movement patterns and behaviours are the easiest to handle and predict, rather than the two spastic eyeballs or skeletron prime with his head and two arms flailing at you...for this reason most people find the destroyer easiest even though his hp is the highest. just bring lots of ammo and watch out for the little metal orbs.
