Disarm Weapon is a combat maneuver available to all professions. Warriors can also learn this maneuver through the warrior guild, and are more potent at using it when they have mastered it in the guild compared to having rank 5 of it through CMAN training. A weapon is generally required to perform this maneuver. However, warrior guild disarm masters, characters who have trained all 5 ranks of the combat manuever, and unarmed specialists can attempt to disarm opponents bare-handed.
Using this maneuver will attempt to knock a target's weapon to the ground. It also provides defense against being disarmed, which is the main reason many professions choose to train in this skill.
Using Disarm Weapon against a bard's Sonic Weapon will result in having an additional 3 seconds of roundtime added to the maneuver's base roundtime of 5. Sonic Weapons are immune to disarm.
Creatures that use this maneuver
- Deranged sentry
- Arachne acolyte
- Shan warrior
- Skeletal lord
- Skeletal soldier
- Spectral warrior
- Warrior shade
- Ithzir janissary
- Minotaur warrior
- Spectral triton defender
- Triton combatant
Success formula
Disarm success is calculated similarly to other CMANs, including level difference, encumbrance, attacker's and defender's disarm ranks and combat maneuvers training. For the defender, each rank in disarm is worth 15 points of defense (Confirmed only for rank 3 to rank 4).
Roundtime
On a successful disarm, the target receives roundtime based on the endroll. The exact formula is not known, but the following data points have been observed:
| Endroll | Roundtime (seconds) |
|---|---|
| 101 | 5 |
| 106 | 5 |
| 118 | 5 |
| 120 | 5 |
| 124 | 6 |
| 134 | 8 |
| 139 | 9 |
| 152 | 13 |
| 162 | 15 |
| 181 | 20 |
The maximum roundtime from a disarm appears to be 20 seconds.
