No one has been able to transfigure a piece of the air or ground before, as far as anyone knows, so the shields might not be designed to block that.
Transfigured tendrils that intersect all the bad guys’ spinal cords at the neck level would do the trick. Only question is if Harry has the range to do that.
I mean that transfigureing a steel spike through the ground is doable without partial transfigureation, so it would have been tried before and would be used as a battle tactic already if it worked.
Wouldn’t you need partial transfiguration to make the spike out of a piece of earth?
Regardless, that’s not what I’m proposing that Harry should do. I’m saying he should use partial transfiguration to make acid or cesium threads through the air that include the death eaters and Voldemort’s handgun in the transfigured material. That has never been done before, and its likely there won’t be defenses against it.
It wouldn’t be a projectile. It would be transfiguring part of the enemy INTO acid or some other deadly substance by including a bit of their body inside of Harry’s conceptual “object.”

No, I mean transfigure a steel spike that pierces through the ground, without actually being transfigured from the ground.
Would would Harry not transfigure it from the ground? Or the air from that matter? What else does he have to work with?
And he’d be transfiguring part of their bodies too.
Wouldn’t work on Voldie due to resonance cascade, but he could disable the uzi.

No, I mean you transfigure something else into a spike, and the transfiguration pushes the material through the ground.
Sheilds stop projectile weaponry (up to a point) and I’m not sure this is any different.
