When he says whips are lame he doesn't mean that they are not powerful in some Marvel Comic or other. Story tellers have always given us whips as effective weapons.
What he likely means is that whips are NOT weapons. They were never designed as such and are less than effective in that role. They take too long to wind up a strike and then just as long to recover it for another. They have limited range, inside this and there is next to no effectiveness. They are a lame.
Of course this is fiction so we can have Whips as weapons but as you say they are second only to Light Sabres. I wouldn't want to see that sort of weapon in a class short of Jedi. Because something is powerful doesn't necassarily make it cool. I would rather use my Gaderiffi than some whip and if I wanted something with Light Sabre like power I would just grind out Holocrons toJedi. If such an item is to be introduced to the game I would rather it be Jedi only weapon as an alternative to Light Sabre.

you should read marvel comics, dark horse now made the reproductions in graphic novels so you do not have to fish out thousands of dollars. You will see more Entertainers have whips in Marvel Comics gee must have been Godly, George Lucas idea. And, SOE makes this game not Lucas Arts who have no clue what Star Wars is about due to over 2000 technical mistakes in this game.
No thanks. I used to read the original SWcomics that Marvel had the rightsto (during the release ofEpIV-VI) and they wererubbish. New ones might be better but did George Lucas actually write them? More likely someoneelse did and it has had the Lucas stamp of approval...Making it official. Well You ever read the original "official" background to Boba Fett? Doesn't bare much resemblance to the one Lucas wrote for EpII.
So it'sin a comic, great, it should be in thisGame?No thanks. Maybe one day but should it take priority over all the bugs and missing features? I don't think soand please stopberating the devs because they haven't read some Comic book serieswhichdoesn't take place in the current time line for SWG.
I'm notentirely sure it's a good idea for anyone elseto read this series of comic books, seeing how obsessed you seem to have become with them.
