Make a change to disarm to allow for a chance, even a low chance, so that the mob doesn't pick up its weapon in the 2 rounds of lag...a variable lag of 0 - 2.5 rounds of lag (however that translates into pulses) before gathering its weapon.

There are multiple ways to prevent a mob from picking its weapon back up, and just adding in a random lag factor doesn't really seem to do anything for me.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

It's only the undead mobs that make it bothersome. No dirt no happy.

But really, not a big deal.
