+ | A '''whip''' is a [[attack types|blunt]] [[weapon]] that consists of a flexible length of [[material]] that can be swung with great speed. Whips have the lowest contact area and highest velocity multiplier in the game, making them amazingly effective, even against [[armor]]ed opponents; this behavior has been reported as a [[#Bugs|bug]]. Whips are similar to [[scourge]]s, though the scourge is an edge weapon with a larger contact area. | ||

+ | Whips use and train the [[lasher]] skill. As foreign weapons whips cannot be [[forge|forged]] by dwarves, limiting supply to whatever low-[[quality]] specimens can be traded from human [[caravan]]s and scavenged from invaders. [[Weapon#Size|Even the smallest dwarves]] can equip a whip one-handed. | ||
