Melee with Whip.

Yup, a Indiana Jones AT.... basically.

AT? Not a chance

Powerset? Maybe

Been suggested since Live, unlikely to happen (AIUI) because of the limits of the game engine.  The existing Whip animations are reputed to be pretty deep hacks of the system.  (That is, not expandable.)

You'd be surprised how many supposed limitations on Live were worked around already, bases are a prime example.

 

Reworking the current whip assets might be difficult, but not impossible. That being said, mobs that also use whips (Awakened, Drudges, Carnival of Light) have evidenced that the flaming FX is hard tied to the whip 'prop' itself, so any efforts to reuse those assets will look much the same.
