It grants +2 on all Disarm rolls. The Weapon Finesse Feat is not usable with a Heavy Whip. The Heavy Whip deals lethal damage. The Heavy Whip has a 10 foot reach, and unlike most reach weapons, can attack opponents in adjacent squares. The Heavy Whip threatens all squares it can reach. Using a Heavy Whip does not provoke attacks of opportunity. This weapon is the Slight Whip's bigger cousin. The Heavy Whip is the first serious effort to make a whip into a real combat weapon. After thousands of years of refinement by a small but dedicated following, the Heavy Whip has evolved into a solid yet very flexible weapon. It is not the most damaging whip, but it is the best mix of abilities and reasonable damage available. A Heavy Whip has a sturdy handle about a foot long, and a thick yet flexible braid that's about 6 feet long with a wire-reinforced tip. A Heavy Whip in the hands of a strong and skilled user can kill a man quickly, and is a serious threat to any foe on the battlefield. The Heavy Whip belongs to the "Blades, Light" and "Flails", weapon groups.
