So the wyld runners whips in hob book says it is str 2 on weapon profile. On yak it says str of user. Is this a mistake? Or was it faq'd/white dwarf'd?
N18 Escher wyld runners whips
- Thread starter footpatrol2
- Start date
My HoB is the second printing version, which includes the updated material from the last FAQ released.
It also has Whip as S2. Unless you can find definitive proof GW changed it elsewhere just stick with what the book says as that is a first-hand resource.
Who knows where Yaks info came from, it may well have been the first printing which was wrong and amended.

Well that's disappointing. Str of user would have been nice and something to build up your wyld runners str.
The 2023 core rule book correct it. It's more recent and said it's user S.
Good news then! Update located.
GW really don’t make this easy by adding by stealth errata into other expensive books though do they?

Kinda thinking Wyld Runners could be mid/to late bloomers. If you take a Wyld runner give it two whips, a single and/or double in str boost, that's pretty good. That's 6 inch move 3 inch versatile (3 attacks on charge) on a Juve like character at str 3/4. Since the model also has boost in str grenades can go on it. BUT you need that Boost in Str to be worthwhile.
As far as I know: The update for Whip from Str 2 to Str S was first introduced in 2021 with the Marketplaces of Necormunda pdf (Trading Post pdf). It was later published in the N23 rulebook. The update has been consistently Str S and it makes more sense so is treated as intentional and correct.
