(I have the Mac version) Yeah, I did that, and no matter how many times I do it, or how many people I have working on it, it won't get any more dismantled than 12% Am I missing a step or something?
I've done it like 20 times now with 13 adults. 4 or 5 of which are adept builders or over.

I have the PC version, and I can't dismantle it, either. I've

hit it with the lightning bolt
but 11 adept and 2 master builders couldn't dismantle it, even with level 3 science, medicine, and construction. I'm still at 0% dismantled. I have a red mask there, so I can't use the hospital at all. I'm stuck. What do I do now?

I've always

paused my game and set the villagers on the right-side of the stream so that they're out of the way when I unpause the game and hit the pain totem with the lightening, electrocuting the heathens so they run away temporarily. I then wait just a few seconds as the heathens run away and place my villagers on the totem right away.

As soon as the totem is re-energized and the heathens come back, I hit it again with lightening (making sure once again that my villagers are out of the way). I can usually take out the totem with 2-3 hits of the lightening to scare the heathens away, using at least 5 villagers.

I haven't had an issue with the heathens rebuilding the partially dismantled totem since I've always had enough power to take the totem out, but I bet that they do rebuild it if you don't dismantle it completely and then you'd have to start dismantling it all over again.

Try again with at least 5 villagers (more is better). Make sure you have enough energy for a minimum of 2 hits of lightening, 3 would be better, or a large enough population to recharge your power quickly. I hope this helps. smile

I've used as many as 13 builders and have tried 8 times. My progress in dismantling is still 0%.

That is really odd! Did you keep your game open the entire time they were trying to dismantle it? You might want to fill out a Support Request.

There seriously wasn't time to close it. The lightning started up again within 1 minute. I'm reinstalling it now, even if it means starting all over. If I can't get it torn down after the reinstall, I'll do the support request.

Thanks.
