I’d love a Whip with a heavy dose of condi based skills. Said it a long time ago and still think it would be an excellent weapon for a thief. I would like a Flaming Whip too with burning! The level of epic would be so high with that. Just Google flaming whip and you’ll see what I’m saying.

I think we’d all love some new weapons, i guess the whip specifically has been mentioned a few times on other forums too. While i agree and would also love it, if i remember correctly, anet has stated in an interview that eventually all classes will have access to all existing weapons, but hasn’t really talked about adding totally new weapons.
Though some classes can use more weapons than others, so they wouldn’t get an equal number of new skills by unlocking all weapons….

Anyway, i’d love to see Rifle as a thief weapon long before any new weapon in the game.

Auto attack should make enemies build siege for you, and gives them swiftness

* Twitch – Mênzîes – Mesmer pvp
* YouTube – Fun, guides and gameplay

It should give you some buffs if you wear a fedora at the same time.

I know right! What the heck did you guys do to my thread??? I was being serious about a new weapon and you took it WAY far afield. I’m thinking Ele’s lightning whip but, flames instead of electricity.

GG smh….

I support this idea, as I suggested this also once.

Whip Skills I’d like for the Thief:

1) Whip Lash > Overstrike > Whirl Whip
Lash at you foe causing Bleeding, followed by an overhead strike to cause more Bleeding follwed by a whirling lash to hit all targets around you causing Bleeding.

Stealth) Strangulation – Immobilize you foe, pull it to you and cause it to suffer on Weakness, Vulnerability and lose a Boon.

2) Whip Shock – Cause with your loud Whip Slash a Sonic Shockwave that will hit multiple foes in line.

3) Fast Lashes – Slash quickly like a Staccatto many times to deal to a target multiple hits. Has a chance to cause daze with each hit.

4) Snakebite Slash – Let your Whip loose on the ground, to perform a few seconds later an upwards lash with your whip, thats liek a snake biting at you, that knocks down the foe and causes posion and torment, when the foe stands up.

5) Whirlwind Whip – Whirl the Whip above your head fass to create a little whirlwind, that reflects back projectiles and hits all targets around you, while you cure with it also Burning and Weakness

Something like that, stuff like Flaming Whip I don’t see within the Thief, its more somethign for the Elementalist if they would use a Whip together with redesigning the Skill Lightning Whip to the weapon when they are attuned to Wind, so that Flame Whip, Lightning Whip, Sand Whip and Aqua Whip would be basically based on the attument the whips auto attacks.
That would fit alot better. And besides, no new weapon gets made only for 1 single class.

Personally I like the idea behind sub classes ~ quoted from Chris Whiteside
