You pound a large maggot's chest. A large maggot falls on its knees and collapses.
A large maggot is DEAD!!
A large maggot falls lifeless to the ground.
You get a single gold coin from a corpse of a large maggot.
You junk a corpse of a large maggot.
Just keep it all.


That's a sorceror with a whip. I thought untrained weapons wouldn't do ANY damage, but it appears that they do.
Speaking about it, why don't sorcerors have the whip skill? It only sounds fair that they could/should.

They can do damage, just not a lot and very very rarely. When I first started, I leveled an elf sorcerer to lvl 8 using only a whip.

Sorcerers used to have whip, but no one levels a sorcerer with weapons anyway.

What sort of damage type does the whip produce? I've haven't used whips a lot, but most whips wouldn't "pound" the enemy. So maybe it was your fist around the handle or something doing damage. Does the sorc have any self defense trained?

The iron whips from Nerina pound, at least. But I wouldn't be surprised if this is the single strike from self defense kicking in, which I believe you get even if you are wielding an untrained weapon.
