Wouldn't it be cool if we had whips in skyrim, it would work sort of like a bow and arrow, hold down the attack button to pull back your whip and let go to do some damage.

Get to work Modders.

I think somebody mentioned whips in a thread about spears not long ago. But against armored opponents, a whip would do nothing. Even without armor, it would take a long time to inflict any damage.

Flails also got mentioned. This would be a better idea, but I think you would have to use up some stamina to build up momentum.

Yeah i guess i can see why they wouldn't want to add them, but seriosly your saying it wouldn't be fun to torture some guy with a whip?
