For the Dark Souls II variant, see Notched Whip (Dark Souls II).
For the Dark Souls III variant, see Notched Whip (Dark Souls III).

The Notched Whip is a whip in Dark Souls.

In-Game Description

Whip with sharp spikes.
Only slightly effective against armor and tough scales, but quite formidable against enemies with exposed skin. Also causes heavy bleeding.

Availability[]

The Notched Whip is dropped by Xanthous King, Jeremiah in the Painted World of Ariamis.

Characteristics[]

The Notched Whip has lower attack power than the whip, but causes bleed buildup. It cannot be parried or riposted, and it cannot riposte or backstab. Like the whip, the notched whip has lackluster attack power by the time it can be obtained.
