What usually causes the most damage is the pyroclastic debris and the ash. The ash isn't normal fire ash (tephra) more than 10 cm of volcanic ash can collapse a building. The next most devastating factor is the pyroclastic flow (lahar), gases through fumaroles and lastly the lava is least devastating. (Anyone can out run a lava flow... backwards)
