The Abyssal whip is the most popular one-handed weapon. It requires 70 attack to equip and can be obtained as a rare drop from abyssal demons. It can be upgraded into 4 elemental variants by using an elemental crystal on the whip, increasing the accuracy to +100 and increasing the strength stat to +91 but making it degradable after 5000 hits into the original whip or the crystal.

Trivia

• Many players dislike training with the whip due to it having a shared attack style. Dragon hasta is often used as an alternative.
• It's commonly believed that the whip is inferior to the dragon hasta, this is not true as they have identical bonuses.
• Before it's upgraded version, the elemental whip, came into the game it was the best 1-handed melee weapon.
