[QUOTE="LostSoul, post: 4875700, member: 386"] Personally? I would say that you need something that you can focus on a single target. Then you unleash the spell on the target (ie. the weapon) and blast it out of his hands. Something like Thunderwave, being a "whip-crack of sonic energy that lashes up from the ground", wouldn't work; you can't focus it on a weapon. However, "a silvery bolt of force" sounds like it [i]could[/i] knock a weapon out of someone's hands. Though it would be hard to hit that weapon in the right way. So you allow the wizard to use Magic Missile to blast the weapon, give the target a +4 to his Defense (and let him use Fort if he wants), and if it hits the weapon is knocked out of the target's hands with no damage. Bigby's Icy Grasp should be able to grab a weapon and yank it from someone, and that would be pretty much the same as a standard disarm. The cool thing about using that spell is that you can move the weapon around. [/QUOTE]
