I know there is got to be a lot about this somewhere in the forum, but couldn't find it.
Now my question what will be the best tattoo set for a destroyer both for PVP and PVE oriented, and what would be a balance set for both.
that one depends on what you want, some prefer damage, some prefer HP for survivability, me personally? I went -3con -2 str +5 dex (in tallum, so effect +5 dex -5 con) why? atk speed = reuse time on frenzy/rage etc. from what I have seen, pvp centric destroyers go -str + con (I'll admit, mine is a sub w/ a SR main, so I prefer pvp on my main) some pure PvE destroyers that I have seen go +5 dex +4 str -9 con (have enough con and str to play with to go both ways)
i made my destro sub and usually the first thing i would do with a melee is go +str -con
problem is you really need that extra hp to get skills off in time
i'd love some extra dex for faster skill reuse and run speed but where would i minus it from str?
if you ask me destro stats are fine how they are and i just stuck to my tatooless destro
...some pure PvE destroyers that I have seen go +5 dex +4 str -9 con (have enough con and str to play with to go both ways)
That is also a PVP build. With Health SA weapon the HP is still high enough, but the dmg output is much higher compared to a HP build.
It all depends on what you wanna do. If you wanna deal dmg, then +STR +DEX and -CON is the way. If you wanna be a damage soaker, then go +CON. Or as Nameless said, dont get tattoos and you will be good in both, but not the best.
i have a +4 wit tattoo on my destroyer that helps me make pointless yet snappy comebacks. best tattoo ever.
lol

what do you want though seriously?
at 55 my destro has its choice of either 2.5k pattack or 2k pdef and about 600 pattack (basically double the pattack of any other melee)
i can keep that up for 2 out of every 3 mins, it basically translates to near invincibility 60% of the time so why knock a winning combination
stick with base stats till 70+ when you get into real pvp then go +5 dex and +4 con
I put on +4 STR, -4 CON tat at about level 50 or so. But tats aren't crucial until mid 60 levels. I will add +5 DEX, -5 CON next. The added run speed, attack speed, and accuracy will help a lot, particularly when poling (even with Accuracy toggle on I still miss a lot).
Well first I will like to get to 70 as quick as posible (im 31 at the moment im sure it will take me like 3-4 months :( ), and I have a 60 SE running behind me, so what will help me get there faster, +dex or +str. I usually solo a lot because I like to do manor and ppl dont seem to like me to cancel the drops
lvl 60 se huh... thatll prolly help :P
just so you know i lvled my destro side by side with my noob Wcer
thats VR1 all the way and i could easily get a lvl a day
problem is manor is not such a good combination with poleing so thats gonna slow you down
if you are doing single target mobs and dont plan to pvp just go +5 str +4 dex
should give you plenty of hp to trigger skills and alot more dps
O and make sure you get the se a BTB staff preferably a soes but if you cant afford it crystal staff will do the trick
Well, it will be useful for a longer duration than a crystal staff, so imo it is worth it.
Still, I fail to understand why you all view +str +dex -con as a pve setup, since it is the ultimate DD setup for a Destro. I know lots of ppl that use that setup for pvp.

difference between a +con build and a +str build is huge
i just checked l2calc and a 78 destro with +5 con and BTB has 10,500 hp
a -9 con destro has 7070 hp
in pvp a destros job is basically /useskill frenzy, rage, zealot
/win
their damage comes from skills so there is absolutely no point in haveing +str imo
But then again, this is just a thing about having different opinions. I personally rather 1 hit than 2 hit my enemies, but meh, you can have that few k more HP.
I'm waiting for the Interlude, might change my setup too but currently I like STR more than CON.
well yeah the option is still there
with a +con build you should pretty much 2 hit any class that isnt in heavy armor with a hp build
in pvp the extra few hundred hp needed to activate skills could easily be the difference between life and death
The difference would be about a full 1k hp required to throw skills, which means a few extra seconds to cast before the focus fire kills you anyway...but if you arent getting focus fired it means you can kill a few people before you die.
Unless you start pvp in Frenzied state, ie when you know where your enemy is and you're going to gank him. 90secs of Frenzy goodness is more than enough for it.
I didnt know destroyers were such and insane class....At lvl 50 with franzy and rage i was at 3388 p.atk O.o my main at 75 wasnt even near that....but atm im running +5 str -5 con with plated leather :) It worked great in pvp and pve.
