This whip is 5d4 5/3.

You turn in a bunch of other weapons to quest it, many of which have procs. No procs appeared on the ID of the living slime whip.

One of the weapons you turn in is 5d3 3/4.

How the hell does this quest reward make any sense at ALL?

If the weapon does proc, but they do not show up on ID, please fix. Someone told me that it might proc for evil female priests. I rolled one up to test it and it never proc'd (maybe its level based, who cares...still stupid). Also, at no point in the quest dialogue is either whip wielder a female, or in one case a priest. Priests don't even get the 1h misc skill.

I'm hoping someone just messed up and screwed the whip up by mistake, so please, if possible, fix it. The quest dialogue hints at the three procs the weapon SHOULD have. I just wasted my time, my guild's time, and my equipment to quest something that is almost worse than one of the items I turned in.

I wrote a proc for this whip months ago due to a similar request. It's 95% complete but there's 1 piece I don't know how to get working. No ETA, already on the list.

Pending the real proc, might I suggest a nice "melf's acid arrow" proc! Seems fitting for it's name

not to sound like a total smartass, but you were right the first time, it's can be used as a possessive word so the ' should be there when refering to "it's" name

Stop, grammar time.

its = possessive. It wrote down its name. The car lost its wheel.

it's = It is, contracted. It's snowing. It's nice outside.

You use an apostrophe with a proper name & possessive though don't you?
Dugmaren's attempt at grammar.

Yeah, same deal. You are referring to YOUR attempt, so still possessive. Pipi's hammer. And if they were many pipis it would be Pipis' hammers.

Although finishing the proc would be pretty cool, this might be a good candidate for acidic enchantments and such if nobody wants to finish what dugmaren started.

Wow, you actually finished that quest! Did you do it the hard way by following all the little leads through several mobs in Hulburg and the Temple of Twisted Flesh or did you stumble upon it by happenstance (i.e. brute force quest keyword spamming)? Congratulations if the prior, that was one of the harder ones I wrote. Hope you enjoyed the story of what the whip is and how it came to be back in the jungles of Chult :)

Since I wrote it, I can tell you what it was originally intended to do... I have no clue what has changed in the past years so there's probably an entire new system for everything, but it was originally meant to do three different things. One for each head of the whip: poison your foe, regenerate the wielder and deal acid damamage. Each could randomly happen upon a hit.
