Does this mean that if I had two first level fighters each identical (Str 18) except one has a greatsword and the other has a longsword and both are wielding in 2 hands they're modifiers for a disarm attempt (if the AoO didn't hit that is) would both be +9 or would the one with the longsword be at only +5?
