Description

Noticed this on Dio's log board, don't know if anyone has reported it. <316hp 383m 467mv 16298tnl> Liateo wrestles your weapon away from you! You deliver a blow of deadly force! Your cleave === OBLITERATES === Liateo! Liateo wields an ornate silver battle-axe. Liateo tries to wear an ornate silver battle-axe, but it rejects him. Liateo is gushing blood. Shouldn't he have removed his weapon on the return blow? In grapple, he took the weapon, he shouldn't be able to cleave with it if he doesn't have it at that moment. The return strike should be empty handed... SD

By design...

This skill is similar to Disarm and Strip, but has much less finesse in
that the Orc attempts to grapple a weapon from his opponent by any means
possible, often causing himself some pain in the process.Various levels
of success are possible when using this skill.

Grabbing a weapon out of someones hand is always going to cause you damage when you do it.
