i have been thinking about making a Kensai 6(fighter)/E.W.M. 1/Lasher 10.
i wanted to focus in the whip.
E.W.M. for uncanny blow.
Lasher for extra damage and attack, and some other stuff.
If i take all weapon focus and specialization feats it ends up like this.

Str. 26(+8)
+5 whip dagger.

+30/+30/+30/+25/+20/+15.
1d6+16+8+5=
min. 180
aver. 192
max. 210

anything which beats this.
Not pun-pun.

Do you have to use a Whip? A Spiked Chain can be used with Power Attack, and can deal an insanely larger amount of damage because of it...

to say it no.
the only reason was that the lasher did get two extra attacks, but then all atcks was with a penality of -4. And they applied +2 extra damage with a special ability.
BTW. this one could also use power attack, and if i had cleave and great cleave too then it would be perfect with a reach of 15ft.

but i think that some kind of a combination with the devish PrC would be great.

I made a scorpion chain weilding dervish some time back that was pretty sick. Just FYI, scorpion chain fuctions just like a spiked chain, but it deals 1d6 slashing damage. it was a super nasty build, that really abused, flanking and elusive target, with the flurry ability of exotic weapon master, and I could power attack with it too.

Also the weapon focus, weapon specialization, cleave, and great feats are really underpowered. The whip is really apain because you can't power attack with it, so you've gotta put specialization in to do an extra two points of damage, when you could be dealing sooo much more.
