GameDescription
A paralysing crack of the whip.[1]

Whiplash can be learned by Jessica after allocating 10 points into her Whips skill. It costs 4 MP to use and inflicts the same amount of damage as a normal attack to a single group of enemies. The rate of inflicting paralysis is independent of the enemy's resistance, save for full immunity. Once Jessica has investing 55 points into the Whips skill, it will upgrade into Lashings of Love.

  • In the Nintendo 3DS version, Red can learn Whiplash by investing 23 skill points into her Whips skill. Unlike Jessica, hers does not evolve into Lashings of Love.
