[QUOTE="BENINHB, post: 5417305, member: 86022"] Funniest disarm story?? We were defending a three story tower in the wilderness that we had some time to prepare before the attack. We had cut away all the brush and undergrowth in a 40ft radius around the tower to remove any cover or concealment for the approaching baddies. This gave us an open killing field they had to cross to get to us. We barricaded up the windows of the first floor and blocked the door with our Adamantine Warforged. The second floor was our rogue and I. He was popping from window to window making sneak attacks and since we were sharing one ladder to get clear shots i quickly found i was getting in his way. So up i go to the roof where our wilder is doling out a steady stream of crossbow bolts and torching anyone who came too close with her wild surged energy ray (5d6+5 at level 3!!) I'm running utility at this point. I pop some sunrods and toss them out to illuminate the enemies as they approach, I get off a couple shots with my longbow, then "Listen check" [I]clink clink click[/I], that sounds like grappling hooks!! i run over and start sundering ropes with my dagger but i can only cut one per round and they are coming faster than that. After two rounds i cut two ropes but now there are 3 bads on the roof with us and the turn after 2 more join them. The wilder and I are doing a good job of watching out for each other and are fighting back to back to keep from getting flanked and at the same time we are trying to cut off access to the roof by keeping them corralled in the area were the ropes attach so more guys don't have room to climb up. So we are fighting pretty defensively trying to keep them from taking over the roof when one of the bad guys nat 1's and fumbles, dropping his rapier. I'm a Swash1/Wiz1 at this point so the DM describs that I spot the flaw in his wild technique catch his awkward thrust with my dagger, disarming him with a wink and a grin. Fast forward to my turn... "I bullrush him" DM "you what?" Me "BULL-RUSH" DM "Really?? You're a wizard dude" Me "Madness? MADNESS? THIS-IS-EBERRON" (I roll my d20 plus i blow an action point for another d6) DM "umm you know without improved bullrush you provoke" Me "Does he have Improved Unarmed Strike??" DM "No why?" Me "Cause he's not holding a weapon" DM "...#%*@" I Sparta kick the goon and he flies off the roof and he takes out a guy waiting on the rope too. The guy on the rope was toast, he took falling damage and damage from the 200lbs guy landing on top of him. The guy i kicked dropped but must have just been knocked out cause a few rounds later he popped up and started staggering for the edge of the clearing. When i spotted this i said "I run and jump off the edge of the roof" DM "roll a WIS check" "umm, 18" "Ok, your common sense tells you a fall from 30ft could kill you" "I got this... Feather Fall!!"
