 All [[undead]] building destroyers are level 1 (except if they are undead versions of level 2 destroyers), and they also gain the ability to destroy wooden [[support]]s, which generally ends poorly for the creature.

 The time it takes for a building destroyer to destroy a building depends on the [[quality]] of the building.  [[Artifact]] quality furniture can never be damaged or destroyed, but some kinds of artifact furniture will be deconstructed by a building destroyer, given enough time: for instance, artifact statues will eventually be deconstructed; artifact hatch covers never will.
-Building destroyers will destroy nearly '''all''' types of buildings they can reach, whether or not they block their path - [[door]]s, [[floodgate]]s, [[hatch]] covers, vertical/horizontal [[bars]], floor/wall [[grate]]s, [[statue]]s, [[workshop]]s, and even furniture are vulnerable.  The only buildings that will be spared by a building destroyer are [[well]]s, [[bridge]]s, [[road]]s, [[trap]]s (including [[lever]]s and track stops), [[animal trap]]s, [[chain]]s, [[cage]]s, [[stockpile]]s, [[Trap#Upright Spear/Spike|upright weapon]]s, and any buildings submerged in 4/7 or deeper [[Water#Depth|liquid]] (even if they're innate swimmers). They can destroy most furniture and buildings from a lower [[z-level]] when a valid path exists to that furniture, though locked hatches and closed grates are safe as long as no alternative paths exist. Building destroyers will path to and destroy even opened (or stuck open) doors, hatches, floodgates, or vertical bars. They will cause damage to any attached mechanisms during building destruction, sometimes leading to the unlinking of furniture to a lever before the furniture in question is fully destroyed.
