Whip Weaponmaster is Impossible

Post by msterswrdsmn » Wed Jun 02, 2021 10:53 am

Attempted to create a whip weaponmaster on the PGCC for fun and it turns out that when attempting to choose a weapon focus for the first weaponmaster level, you cannot choose a whip.

I have all the feats/skills/etc needed to become a whip weaponmaster, but whips do not show up on the weapon selection list. It may have been overriden by the new weapons like cavalry weapons and the new monk weapons, as all of those do show up. The weapons are listed in alphabetical order (with some exceptions) with the last default nwn weapon on the list being a sickle.

I've made whip weaponmasters before, so this is a arelith-specific issue.

Made it on PGCC with weapon focus for one-handed concussion, worked. However, couldn't choose whip as weapon of choice going weapon focus for one-handed edged. Probably an oversight as it ought to work with both.

Sorry if this seems like necroposting. I meant to add in the bug template and completely forgot over the last week. Work has been...well. Awful.

Description
==========
Attempted to make a whip weaponmaster with the one-handed edged weapon focus feat and found that a whip is not a selectable weapon. Whips are supposed to benefit from both concussive and edged one-handed feats.

Steps to reproduce
----------------------------
Create a character with all the weaponmaster requirements and the one-handed edged weapons focus. Then attempt to create a whip-based weaponmaster

Expected result
-----------------------
Being able to select a whip as the weaponmasters focused weapon and being a whip weaponmaster

Actual result
-------------------
Whip is not listed as an option with the one-handed edged weapon focus.

Notes
---------
All other one-handed edged weapon feats appear to be working as intended. Its just the weapon masters weapon of choice feat that doesn't recognize whips.
