Gnoll Hide Lariat  

 

Would this proc have a chance of sticking on monsters such as, say, Nagafen/Vox/large-multitude-of-expansion-dragons? If so I would think it would be smart to take a pair of these to dragon raids... especially the ones that have spells like Vox! Then you have your secondary-melee and general inventory (which has a shield in it) put in a hotkey bank, swap in the lariats, and whenever Bash ungreys swap in the shield long enough to bash, swap back out... that's a lot of stunning, especially with high dex. If the proc has a chance of sticking, I'd say Vox has small chance to heal herself...

these crappy whips are well worth keeping them in yer bags.
Here is how wue used it
We were 2 fll groups of 49 hunting the gnolls in the pit in Velk lab.

The ranger (50) took those two in her hands, i tossed her with SLTW and WW form. she had 254 dex and was procing AS HELL!!!!!!
According to her, the damage was about 20 a hit, but she was proc'ing every two hits. it is AWESOME against the champion (ton of hp, double for 200 on me, poor caster :p ) they weren t hitting anymore. awesome too against the priest, wasnt able to cast.

At higher level, dual wielding two gnoll hide lariats can be a very cool addition in multi group (or even in single group, but didn't try though) for it can keep any mob stunned for 60% of the fight duration.

Ok I'm a LVL 32 Ranger and i figure this could work great for arrow kiting, however how do you trigger it? Right click on it or what? Never had anything that proc. before?

This weapon works great when handed to pets. They arn't worth enough to sell and they drop quite often in splitpaw. An air pet with 2 of these equiped gets a lot of stuns in (at or greater than level 25 of course). A bard who isn't there as main tank can get a lot done with these stuns and then have more AC to boot.

im an 18 ranger and it wont proc for me and yes verant should add this into the info list of the weapon

im not sure though, but i bought one from the aviak vebdor in SK for exactly 25 plat.....?

sure, dmg 3 is crap, but the dly 20 boosts ya 1HS, dual wield and double attack like hell!

just wield another 1HS in secondary and almost every second foe gives +1 to one skill

I got this whip from a friend when I was level 5. I have held onto it for this long waiting for it to proc. I just hit 25 today (WOOT!) but then I had to log to go to work so I am not sure yet if it will proc at 25.

As far as damage goes, this thing is LOUSY, but with the delay, it rocks! I have turned down many a high damage, higher delay so I could keep this one in my off hand. I love it!

I will probably use this whip for quite some time.

Does anyone know of a better whip out there that a level 25 could obtain???

Even if this weapon weren't so quick and effective, i would use it just because of the sound effect! when my rogue first got it she had previously used only piercing, so it took many, many, many excellent cracks to drop blues and whites. it's phenomenal as a second weapon in dual wield.

I found one of these on a gnoll pup in North Qeynos.

I can see the advantages of using this weapon to increase Dual Wield and Double Attack. My only gripe is the high proc level. Enough speculation and spamming with bad info, IT PROCS AT LEVEL 25. Why have a weapon that procs so much later than when you can actually get the weapon? Why not change it to L20, or even L18? ...

One more request... Since Verant was kind enough to start showing which slots items go in, maybe they can start listing the level at which weapons proc.

Give this to your high level skellie pet and sic him on to some casters. The result is stunning to say the least (groan, bad pun).
