Strategy
While Destrobo's combat skills are quite respectable, remember he is the demolitionist, not the fighter. Bring him along when entering a dungeon or a grinding level, where there is guaranteed to be lots of obstacles he can pulverize.
Crushcombo is similar to the Patapon 2 Hero's Robopon Hero Mode. In contrast, Destrobo takes breaks depending on your attack speed (the faster your attack speed the shorter the breaks are) but the attack is faster.
Destrobo can throw two boulders with his charge attack if his attack speed is below 1.60.
Bowmunk is able to inherit Destrobo's Class Skills if he develops them, which makes up for the former's less-than-stellar attack power. He can also make use of Destrobo's Set Skills.
Destrobo is one of the few Uberheroes that can only equip one type of weapon.
If listening closely, Destrobo can be heard shouting "Pon!" when he throws a rock with a charged attack. This can also be heard by Taterazay.
The word "Destrobo" is the combination of the words "Destroy" and "Robot."
Destrobo is the one of the only unit in Patapon 3 that has three class skills (Wood, Stone and Metal Smasher) that can be passed to another class (Bowmunk) and still get a welcome
Destrobo's card
bonus. Also, when Everything Smasher is fully upgraded, his class skills ring will not connect the last class skills with the other affecting 3.
Unlike other Shield classes, he is the only class that can use range attacks with his charge attack.
He is one of the few Uberheroes that has a mask that never changes (Uberheroes who are not Rarepons, but Normal Patapons). Others are Kibadda, Yarida, Taterazay and Yumiyacha.
Destrobo is the only Shield class Uberhero without any affected class skills.
He, Bowmunk, Myamsar, and Grenburr are the only shield classes that don't use Shields or Greatshields, but instead, use arms (B&D), Greatswords and Greatblades (Grenburr), and Blades, Shivs, and Daggers (Myamsar).
Destrobo, Taterazay, and Guardira are the only classes in the game to shout when activating their charge attacks. (Uberhero only)
Due to how classes function, it was most likley unintentional that the Tondenga out-classes Destrobo in almost every aspect Destrobo was made to focus on. Tondenga has higher stamina, attack, resistance, and higher damage modifiers. Tondenga also has much higher destruction capabilities. If you plan on PvPing, it is highly suggested you take a Tondenga instead.
