Retrieve a dropped/disarmed weapon from the ground to attack with is a common enough thing where there should be a clear "yea it says right there that it works like so"[spoiler="AG444 use an object action"]Normally, you use an object while performing another action, such as drawing a sword while running forward or or an arrow as part of an attack. You are also able to interact with one object for free on your turn without spending an action (like opening an unlocked door, undoing a peace bond on a weapon, or tearing down a wanted poster). When an object otherwise requires your action for its use (like administering or drinking a potion), you take the Use an Object action, which can also be useful when you need to interact with more than one object on your turn.[/spoiler]When the game veers into things that will potentially crash right through a wall where monsters can steal prized weapons from players attempting to fill their class/group niche with those weapons that ambiguity is going to be poison.  My group decided it for me by both strength based melee players remaining silent when the dex based adept argued for a maximalist approach on all ambiguities*  the first time he used it so I can just point at him or their silence if they don't like a dragon stealing their weapons  or something but the second I do that those players are going to be walking on eggshells scared to attack anything forevermore.* including the phrase "why would I ever spend the extra two points, I already have their weapon & we can ignore them"</blockquote>
