My players have a saying "If Zach is GM'ing, that package is a bomb. Every time."

Biggest dick thing you can ever do? String a piece of it across an alley while your buddy is being chased by go-gangers. He knows to duck, they don't.

Plop.
Even worse, string it at KNEE HEIGHT for, say, your average Ork.

I've got a new player who has asked me to make a weapons specialist built around mono whips. We'll see how this goes.

possibly the best and worst idea. ever. (read above for why :P)

just give him a gentle warning to avoid his whip if he has spent all his edge. Just saying.

Well, hopefully with 13 dice or so, Critical glitches will be few and far between. But yeah, it is a sort of dedicated edge holding type weapon.

We investigating the adept  One is an adept that uses it, then a cyberware based whip wieldier.  May as well go for the gusto with one on each hand in a fingertip compartment.

13 dice? As an adept? Get up to 20, you'll feel much safer!

I almost always have at least one game going.

Just never as a PLAYER, only as a GM.  Ever.  JimCon is soon, however, and hopefully the gaming I do there will be more than the SR5 demos that I'll be doing there.

Well, 20 is a bit much for a starting character in our game, he'll just have to..live on the edge?

Next thought: the fingertip compartment is so cliché. Ohinking of other ways to hide a monofilament whip. (I meant disguising the normal handheld version; other cyber implant locations, while amusing, seem a bit...unwieldy, even if they may have a shock factor.)

Be polite. Be efficient. Have a plan to kill everyone you meet.
