Whips in General and the Lasher PrCl?

[boothbey]

hmmmm whips are always good, and so versitile....... grabbing hold of something/someone at a distance, pulling a lever, tripping someone/something and a hell of a lot more fun than a 10' pole in those....non combat situations

Thought at first this thread said something about Whips and Leather, was a little sad when I saw it was Lasher not Leather.

So Dragongirl, are you busy tonight?
Dinner, movie, and other non combat situations.


Lasher made the whip much more versatile and useful as a weapon. Indiana Jones, Catwoman, Zorro...whips are always cool when depicted in the movies. Nice that the rules finally allow these types of actions and attacks.

That's an house rule.

Whip, small exotic melee weapon : A Whip has reach. You can strike opponents 5, 10 & 15 feet away with it. However, you only threaten adjacent foes with it ( the first 5 feet away from you . )
The whip deals subdual damage. It deals no damage to any creature with even a +1 armor bonus or at least a +3 natural armor bonus.
Because the whip can wrap around an enemy's leg or other limb, you can make trip attacks with it. If you are tripped during your own trip attempt, you can drop the whip to avoid being tripped.
When using the whip, you get a +2 bonus on your opposed attack roll when attempting to disarm an opponent ( including the roll to keep from being disarmed if you fail to disarm your opponent.
You can use the Weapon Finesse feat to apply your Dexterity modifier instead of your Strength modifier to attack rolls with a spiked chain.

so I guess now would be a good time to start up a thread about WHY my g/f took the Lasher PrC...?



what better PrC is there for a 'fetish-goth' girl to take...?

good call...



although based on picture alone, Tome & Blood's True Necromancer has some serious goth fashion cred, making it a viable option...

 

[Dragongirl]

Chains are much too hard, and have you ever tried to do a caress with cold iron links? Much better with leather.

 

[Xarlen]

Why do you think that 50' long silk rope is so popular?
