It all comes down to lvl, and equipment. Pre 78 destro will be able to hold his ground, till he drops to 30%, then it's either frenzy or guts and fare-thee-well tyrant. 78 with cancel fists I'd bet the tyrant, if he keeps the range open. But keeping the range is not really an easy thing to do, since the bow range is 500 and tyrant skills have 600 range. and while you turn your back him, the destro can crit you more easily.

Oly style Titan has the upper hand, as long as he has a bow and can frenzy. Although I'd rather start with guts and shoot away, while the tyrant wastes his sonic charges. THEN, when he closes I'd pop frenzy and pummel his ass reeaal good

All my bet on tyrant, the only 2 advantage destro seems to have is the FR and hvy armor.
But hey, w8 for FR => 10sec invicibility than rabbit totem for a bit and go for bison. Guts won't kill ya.
Cripple is funny if reflection is not on, then again, tyrant is way better in ranged combat than destro with a bow.

The only problem I see is if the tyrant is stupid enough to stay near when FR is on, or if the TY gets stunned and then FR takes over.

Well, advices like that actually kill the point. I mean, if you run away don't you technically lose the fight, either by running, or by giving him time to use soe/bsoe? Or maybe use elixirs...

guts+zealot+bow

It's better than getting hit with that frenzy dmg :d
And it's win in oly

and hit everywhere except ur oponent

god damn plz make guzeris shut up.. never seen such a lame person!
as breal said tyrant can own destro for sure..
the destro is the slow dude..the tyrant has ranged nukes and has wolf and rabbit..
lol go on catch him..u gona deal some dmg with db?orly?ur range is?ur accuracy is?ur dmg is?gimme a break!50% for non doublehanded sword blunt..
only a handicap tyrant would try to kill destro in head to head fight..EVEN if u turn zealot+bison + barrier the destro has still chances cuz of gutz and battle roar

ok start fight up close use skills bla bla and SPAM CRIPPLE !!!! if it lands its kite time
turn on wolf and start kitting man or rabit if you have heavy on you will defenetly have more hp then him when the crippl goes away and repeat strategy until you see him go zealot frenzy
this is the time to act you sue barrier only when you see him use battle roar for hp so you can have a few extra seconds to deal dmg if he goes guts well its kinda hard xD
depends also un luck you can crit when his giving frenzy zealot and kill him or get a crit in the face and die xD

destroyer is a fighter killer type warrior , tyrant is mage killer hey guess who is gonna pawn who , tyrant has no chance maybe on l2j :O cos on normal servers heavy armor + guts + battle roar = no chance

wazawanga..
//fail once again d00d
stop talking bullshit
btw sekku is right
but imagine..if that asshole succeeds armor crush..he wont let u go away without dealing huge amount of dmg..
when i fight with destroes i juz leave them run and run..i nuke run nuke run.. ha go on and activate ur gutz..when it worns off what u gona do as a destro?run moar?i have more speed anyway lol..zealot?i dont have zealot as a tyrant?!

waza if you have cripple on and the tyrant is on rabbit/wolf do you think you can actually catch him ???? ok lets say you got 2 shots in then what ???
he waits until you waste guts and then goes for the kill )
imo depends on a lot of things 1 is luck others are equips player skill lag place etc
i imagine the titan as a 1 hit guys and the tyrant the guy that uses you like a boxing dummy
anyway the tyrant has a bigger chance because of the barrier + range skills that crit very hard xD

thats it the range the speed the vitality..
destro has the imense strenght,vitality and huge defensive abilites when with guts..but guts aint last forever d000d.. while u can "retotem"

not to mention that 10sec barrier is enough to take down that precious 30% hp[+maybe battle roar] if it's guts, just run....
about zealot, both char has it as long as I know, so that boomeranging with the bow against the TY is kinda impossible.

on normal servers tyrants have pvp mod fists - 15% chance of removing 1-2 buffs during attack, including skills. so imagine the cancel rate of a fully buffed tyrant with his insane attackspeed. As for the destro, his accuracy is good enough to hit a tyrant And maybe frenzy adds only 50%, rage gives another 20%, giving the destro patk like a hawkeye on steroids.

you can pump up a turtle with steroids too but it'll never catch you:D

srsly, only successful stun or inexperienced TY can make victory for a destro
