Actually, the Defuser is already able to destroy wards. Pay more attention! ;)
@UnifiedDoom: Although I agree with the others, that a destruction of all mines in an 1k aoe is way overpowered, I don't think that such a sweep-mechanic is a bad idea. But if you reduce the aoe to a reasonable value (low), it won't be viable anymore (less so than now), so you'd want to cast this sweep at a target area with a certain cast range. This essentially leads me again to the way it is currently implemented ;) One thing I could change however, would be an yet again increased aoe for the Defuse Pack.
