Anet please add a whip
Get the whip sword. Problem solved!
Maybe we’ll see some whips with the new elite specs.
Warrior with an offhand whip for pulling in foes would be hilarious.
Or a Mesmer mainhand whip with interrupts to synergize with their Domination line.
But then air-ele’s actual lightning whip would make less sense. I’m conflicted.

I’m not convinced any new weapons will be added. Maybe after elite specs grant every current weapon to every profession? Even then, they might be able to add off-hand use of a primary-hand weapon.
To my mind: Don’t get your hopes up.
I think whips might work. There is a sylvari personal story mission where you get a whip weapon with whip it good skills.
Who gets the whip, and who doesn’t though? And then, what about the professions that don’t get whip? What do they get instead?
And what about existing skins? I.e. backtracking to every current skin available, from Verdant and Aureate skins, to Molten and Bloodstone skins.
I think it’d probably be far easier to add a whip as a purchasable environmental weapon. One might even be available already somewhere? If anyone knows, I’d love to be shown where I can get it.
I’m in favour of a whip of course, I’m just saying there might be more work involved that it first appears.
Sticks n Stones may break my bones but Lightning Whip excites me. (yes we need whips!)
….. And Elementalist.
They could just add a whip skin to an existing weapon.
I asked for a Flaming Whip for a condi bleed and burn build. That was liked, 3 years ago.
That would put the Merciless Focus in a weird spot.
Problem is they have a whip skin as a focus.

I can only imagine a Roots rp it it were to happen.

It’s awesome looking too. I was sad when I had to go back to my “boring old weapons” :P
So much yes, I could finally be Indiana Jones.
I’m in two minds about whips. I love the idea of them, they’d fit on a few professions quite nicely, but in the back of my mind I’m wondering if it would be a bit too slapstick.
One thing’s for sure though. The expansion they’ll come with will have to be “Guild Wars 2: After Dark”.
Yes, please. So many awesome options here
- Flame Whip
- Morning Star
- Cat ’O Nine Tails
- Thorn Whip
- Plasma Whip
- Braided Leather Whip (e.g. Indiana Jones)
- Ley Line Whip
- Chain Whip (e.g. Ninja, Martial Arts)
- Grappling Hook
- Kusarigama

In fact I would prefer to call it “String Weapon”(or something like that) and include whip skins along all the other flexible weapons that flail, tie up and entangle.
that it makes every other class in the game boring to play.”

The problem with whips is that pulls are buggy, so one of the primary features of the whip may be unreliable.
