double whip

[abraham]

the double whip is 2 whip lashes connected to a 6-inch bar
you use each lash indivigually (sorry, no weapon finnese, it's pretty hard to use each lash with finesse anyway)
otherwise it's like a standard whip
what do you think, is it balanced?

What is the point of using such a weapon compared to simply dual wield two separate whips?

it's mostly a thought exercise.

Since you can't use Weapon Finesse with it, but on the other hand get a -2 penalty for dual wielding it instead of the standard -4 for dual wielding with a non-light weapon in the off-hand, I'd say a Double Whip is balanced.

honestly , it is even silly :D

to use a whip you need wide motions (for momentum) + wrist swift moves (for the lashing thingy); the way you design your weapon , you wont get that and mostly use only one of the two whips and the other one has lot of chances to be stuck in your legs and auto-trip you lol

It's fine balance wise, although the other double weapons are based on simple or martial weapons, not exotic weapons. Would it actually work in real life? No.

What I jusr don't get is why someone would actually choose to use it.

Why not just use a cat o' nine tails (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_o%27_nine_tails)?
