Destroyer strategies? I’m thinking lava and dart traps, a heart statue, maybe a pool of honey to stand in.
Destroyer is really really easy. Make a skybox in the sky just out of reach of the destroyer, but just enough so that it won't despawn. Then put honey, heart statue, and nurse. Use Mystical Nimbus rod, since the NR can pierce indefinitely.
Armor sets to use:
Palladium armor. When you hit an enemy, you gain accelerated healing. Low tier, but useful you can take down all 3 mech bosses with full palladium/mask.
Titanium armor. You can dodge attacks with this armor, so it is especially useful.
Orichalcum (ori-kal-kum) armor. It's pink, so even better. Getting hit will make flower petals fly into enemies and deal damage. Infinite pierce so it's useful against swarms or worms.
Potions to use: the basic buffs, ironskin, thorns, swiftness, etc etc. Make sure to buff up, ESPECIALLY in expert.
Class builds:
Not sure of youre a jack of all trades, but just in case.
Archer: Daedalus Stormbow with Holy Arrows. Just fly around, no aiming required. Instantly shred this guy with this loadout. No need to have any reforges on the stormbow.
Gunner: UZI with crystal bullets. Farm Angry Trappers in the jungle. UZI is a really rare drop. If you can't get an UZI, use CAR instead which you can get from WoF.
Melee: Use a longsword with a large sprite, such as Excalibur, or any of the broadswords (ie. titanium). If you can, try and get Chain Guillotines, as it it pierces. Use a spear if you're in pwnage position. Gungnir is recommended.
Magic: Crystal vile shard, Nimbus rod, Poison staff, and meteor staff are all fairly useful.
Use whatever accessory, but be sure to have the cobalt shield or above, at least specter boots, and wings, if possible. Warding is really useful for Low defense classes, but menacing is better for tank classes.
End game destroyer farming:
Use Solar eruption or last prism. Instant shredding.

Pwnhammer (well, DUH!)Here's some extra advice on what you have:
Full molten armour
Mythril pickaxe
Beam sword
Molten fury
Keen Harpoon
Star cannon
Agile Space gun
Bee gun
Water bolt
Healing potions
Slime staff
Obsidian Horseshoe
Crimson Heart
Slime hook
Spectre boots
Gold watch
Depth meter
Flippers
Tally counter
Nazar
Defence: 31
Health: 400
Mana: 200
1: Holy cow, you have a slime staff!? Well, sorry to say you should probably farm out some spiders in the spider biome for the spider staff since it's like 20x better. Put the slime staff in an item frame or something.
2: Try to get a compass so you can get the GPS.
3: Harpoon is probably useless now, bee gun is good but not very.
4: Space gun and water bolt should be able to carry you until you get to a boss, then you'll need some upgrades.
5: Go farm out some mimics: the stuff they drop is really great. Normal mimics drop some nice accessories and hallowed mimics can drop the Daedalus Stormbow: just about the best early to mid hardmode bow.
6: Shouldn't you have an Obsidian Shield by now?
7: Once you get wings the obs horseshoe is useless.
8: Also holy cow, you have the Nazar. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that more or less the hardest part of the ankh shield to get?
Bezoar is harder, as the jungle is brutal. Strangely enough I got 3 of them on my first trip to the jungle… pre hardmode too.

Melee: beam sword, dark lance and sunfury.
Ranged: shotgun, Mythril repeater and hellwing bow.
Magic: Crystal storm, Imp Staff And flamelash.
I am hoping for full titanium armour, but I am still waiting.

Destroyer strategies? I’m thinking lava and dart traps, a heart statue, maybe a pool of honey to stand in.Daedalus Stormbow + Holy Arrows on a minecart track, Adamantite/Titanium Repeater + Jester/Unholy Arrows, If not Expert Mode, just use full Adamantite/Titanium and any autoswinging Hardmode sword and literally just stand still (Maybe dodge the head too?)

Bezoar is harder, as the jungle is brutal. Strangely enough I got 3 of them on my first trip to the jungle… pre hardmode too.No, Bezoar is easy, you can get it from Toxic Sludges, which spawn in the underground layer anywhere that isn't the dungeon.

Just use the Archer tactic. You will instantly win. You know what the Daedalus stormbow does right? You also know what holy arrows are right? Then you should understand why its the best tactic to use. To spawn more ores smash all the demon altars (But keep one that is closest to your base)

Ankh shield is really fairly simple to make. Just use battle potions and water candles and you're all set.

I'm making a mod called Zylon. Currently it is pretty small.
My personal favorites:
Weapon: Ocean Shine. “Cthulhu's toy” . Shoots razorblades and it's melee. Can be obtained right after beating a mechanical boss.
NPC: Void of the Vortex. 3000 HP. Can be found after defeating the Moon Lord and going to the sky. Ancient Vision AI. Very Deadly on contact.
Future planned bosses:
Slimaster
Chloe, Chase, and Jack
POWERChicken
Mini-Versions of all Vanilla Bosses

I’ve only got 18 souls of Flight. Any wyvern tips?Skybridge and any penetrating weapon.
Something like the Demon Scythe is really good but the Water Bolt is still fine, and of course Stormbow + Holy Arrows.

I’ve only got 18 souls of Flight. Any wyvern tips?Speed and pierce.
Funny story:
The first time I beat a Wyvern I used a mobile bug. It's fixed now but here is how to perform it: Turn off your tablet on multiplier (not the host or connection could be lost). Before that, get a powerful enemy to target him/her. Then the enemy cannot kill the player and the other(s) can defeat it easily.

I use shotgun with crystal bullets. I wait until the wyvern is 50 tiles away, then I travel diagonally in the opposite direction of the wyvern. I fire a couple times, I rinse and I repeat.I’ve only got 18 souls of Flight. Any wyvern tips?Skybridge and any penetrating weapon.
Something like the Demon Scythe is really good but the Water Bolt is still fine, and of course Stormbow + Holy Arrows.
Somehow, it barely does anything, even though it hits multiple times. The shards nor the bullets pierce.

Warding is really useful for Low defense classes, but menacing is better for tank classes.The entire point of low defense classes is that they do enough damage to compensate for their low defense. Warding is a terrible idea. You should use menacing for low defense and warding for tanks
