Weapon Fire is a warding spell that will cause a target's weapon to flare with whichever element the caster is attuned to.

The strength and number of times the weapon will flare vary based on the skill of the caster. Creatures may drop their weapon, but unless the spell has subsided, anyone picking up the weapon may be hit by the weapon fire.

Spell Aiming is a major factor in determining if Weapon Fire successfully hits the target's weapon after scoring a 101+ endroll on the actual cast.

Adventurers hit by a weapon fire can place the weapon in a disk to avoid being hit by the flare. Spirit servants may also be a safe option of getting rid of the weapon-fired weapon. Stowing the weapon will still result in being hit by the flares.
