A leather whip that has seen plenty of use.

It appears no different than an ordinary whip, but is charmed by an ancient blessing that boosts damage inflicted on Hollows.

The blessing is likely the work of a cleric, but whether the spell is good or evil is unclear.

Effect: attack boost against Hollows. 

Acquired From

• Trading a Petrified Something (gives the highest chance of obtaining), Smooth & Silky Stone, or Small Smooth & Silky Stone (lowest chance) with Dyna & Tillo the Crows

Hints and Tips:

• Upgraded with Twinkling Titanite
• The whip loses durability very quickly if used against enemies with a large degree of armor. It loses durability at a regular pace against enemies with no armor.
• This weapon has 350 + 71 Attack Rating at 40 dexterity
• At 20 Dex and 78 Faith, the lightning Old Whip +5 has an attack rating of 260 (245+17) physical damage, and 296 (245+51) lightning damage, a very good weapon in PvE (only on enemies without armor) and PvP.
• The sprint R1 does almost a full 180 attack which is very strong in pvp.
• This whip is very desirable for a character based on whip use, as it has the highest physical damage of any whip at +5.
