📋 About This Mod
Check out Frosty's Whip Models and his new 5e Whips!Or my Vampire Hunter or Crypt Raider subclasses.
The Whip:
Can be either a Simple or a Martial Melee weapon. Base weapon is Simple. Proficiency is Flails. It has Reach and Finesse. 6 meter range is the longest of any Melee weapon.
It is sheathed on the hip. I changed animations to use "throw," which I think looks better.
It can be bought from various traders around the game.
It does 1d4 Slashing damage.
Yanking Lash: Pull a target to you as per Thorn Whip. 1d4 Force damage. Can be used on items and bodies. Action. Once per combat.

Whips Expanded adds 8 functional whips to Baldur's Gate 3, inspired by the Belmont legacy. It's a compact weapon mod with 142 endorsements and 27,076 downloads, last updated in January 2026. For players wanting stylish, functional whips without overhauling combat.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community traction: 142 endorsements and 27k downloads show it's tried and tested.
- Adds a whole weapon type that's missing from vanilla BG3 — perfect for roleplay builds.
- Recent update (Jan 2026) means it's likely compatible with current patches.
⚠️ Cons
- Only 8 whips might feel limited if you want a full arsenal of options.
- No mention of compatibility with other weapon mods or balance overhauls — test before adding to a modded load order.
For BG3 players who want to channel their inner Belmont or just enjoy whipping enemies in style. Great for roleplay-heavy playthroughs or anyone tired of the same old swords. Skip if you're looking for major gameplay overhauls — this is purely a weapon addition.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or BG3 Mod Manager to install — it's the easiest way to keep track of your mods.
- Check the in-game tutorial chest or your inventory after installing to find the whips — they might not be in a shop.
- If you're playing with other weapon mods, load order shouldn't matter much, but keep this one active to avoid missing items.
