That's a good idea, but... I think an Indiana Jones actor is needed. Whip melee weapon and all, too. That'd just be peachy.

Do you really want your CC to become unplayable due to sheer awesomeness and manliness? Also, the whip would be rather difficult to make properly.

If I can bask in such manly glory for but a fleeting moment......, yes. And, why not do it like some other melee-type mods. (Light saber comes to mind). Just colur it brown and give wooshy noises. *Stops off-topic-ing*

For a whip in this, it could easily just be modded off the grappling gun, for Indiana Jones-style swinging.
