Phantom Abyss – All Whips and Effects Guide

This guide will be showing you the details and effects of every whip in Phantom Abyss. If you’re one of the players who is just getting started in the game, here are the details that you need to know about whips.

Voorrede

• The guide was written in early Early Access. All items are subject to change.
• All whips (except the adventurers’ whip) have exactly one curse, which is listed at the bottom.
• Getting a relic with the whip equipped that has at least the same color as the whip, removes the curse. So for a blue whip, one needs to gather a relic from either blue or red level.
• With curses cleared, some whips are objectively better than whips of easier color.
• Releasing a whip early costs 3 tokens of the whip’s color.
