Epic Weapon 3: Vampire Killer


Weapon Stats:
  • Game of Origin: Castlevania
  • Attack Rating: Varied
  • Selling Price: Priceless
  • Handed through the generations to kill vampires
     This is one of those that is more classic and confusing. Like why would a guy take a whip as his primary weapon to face the minions of darkness. Is he sadistic or is there more to this? Players questioned the approach, but for being such a simple weapon the Vampire Killer whip has progressed in the Mythologies of Castlevania. Said to be only truly used to it's potential by one of the Belmont bloodline and strong enough to face the darkest of beings this whip has done just about everything. It's been used like a grappling hook, gained powers of fire, water and electric, smashed rocks and demons. It's even been translated in the Kojima Rebirth of Castlevania but reborn itself as the Combat Cross.
This rebirth made a bit more sense as even though it stayed mistical it made more sense as it folded into itself for compact carry.

Why it's Epic: As I stated what sadistic being takes a whip to fight monsters? It's effectiveness and legacy alone give it a true honor and thus here in the VGW Arsenal I give it the same honor.
