Hey-Lo,
A char in my campaign is aspiring to the Lasher PrC. As missile weapons, whips provoke an AoO to use one if you are being threatened. Also, you technically wouldn't be able to threaten other squares like you could with a pike.
On the other hand, the spiked chain, a somewhat similar weapon, is a melee weapon that can be used to threaten enemy squares.
I am considering allowing the whip to threaten at its extremity (15', but not 5 or 10). I would still consider it a missile weapon in regards to provoking AoOs for its use when threatened, and the firing into melee rules.
Any good reason why I should not allow this? Thanks for your opinionsss..
