How do you destroy the first elevator in fallout shelter?
What you do is take in only 3 dwellers at first - one for each resource. Keep farming caps until you have some 1200-1500. Banish your three dwellers so you have 0 population and destroy all rooms in your vault. You can now destroy the elevator as well.How do you get an elevator out of service?
