Message: <blockquote data-quote="Guest 6801328" data-source="post: 6864611">Right, but the whip is basically a bad weapon as it is, so spending a precious ASI in order to make an off-hand attack with one makes as little sense as wielding a whip in the first place.  (Spending the ASI to dual-wield and then putting whips in both hands makes even less sense.) They might, but the same argument could be made for shields ("Hey...can I use the shaft of my Halberd as an offhand attack?") but they make a Feat anyway that does it better.So, yeah, you can certainly wield a whip if you want but there are big opportunity costs for doing so.  It would be nice if those who want to use a whip for flavor reasons don't have to gimp their character to do so.  And it would be more colorful to rebalance in a way other than damage.</blockquote>
