I've done a few tests with constructing walls using 3 variables - the building material (rough stone versus stone blocks), skill level (Masonry at no-skill versus Legendary+5), and Agility (non-agile versus Perfectly Agile) - and the results appear to be as follows: construction speed depends '''only''' on Agility, completing in 110-111 ticks for zero agility and in 60-64 ticks for Perfectly Agile. Deconstruction speed, however, seems to vary based on both agility and skill level based on the material used - the same Perfectly Agile Legendary Mason deconstructed a wall in 6 seconds, the Perfectly Agile Proficient Miner (no masonry skill) managed it in 9, the non-agile Legendary Mason took about 13 seconds, and the non-agile Miner took about 16 seconds. Overall, it seems that agility has a greater impact on deconstruction speed than skill, but skill does still appear to have an effect, at least in my sample population (a better test would be to do all of the tests with the exact same dwarf, using Companion to alter stats in between each test). Strangely, a nearby non-agile Peasant managed 13 seconds, so it's possible that personality traits may also be coming into play (though I don't see any that ought to be having an effect). --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 18:46, 18 March 2010 (UTC) | I've done a few tests with constructing walls using 3 variables - the building material (rough stone versus stone blocks), skill level (Masonry at no-skill versus Legendary+5), and Agility (non-agile versus Perfectly Agile) - and the results appear to be as follows: construction speed depends '''only''' on Agility, completing in 110-111 ticks for zero agility and in 60-64 ticks for Perfectly Agile.
