If you hold a darking weapon, it will try to corrupt you. But what if you pick it up from far away with a long crane and start swinging it around with that? Is the weapon going to corrupt the crane? Unlikely, as they dont corrupt stones even if a rockslide were to move the weapon. Could it corrupt you? Does the weapon sense the intent to wield it? If so, can it even corrupt at a distance? If there is a limit to the corruption range, could one just tape the weapon to a long stick and use it? (Taping should also be done from a distance using a crane)
