Pairs with my Meowth Khora build

This is my specific setup based on all the in-depth guides other people have already made about what stats for whipclaw are moddable and what stats aren't. Yours will obviously depend on whether or not you have a riven, plus the stats of that riven. Viral/Heat or Viral/Elec is probably the best combo for whipclaw right now, due to the huge damage boost that viral gives. Very low starting damage on this build bc I only run 40% power strenght, but it ramps up very quickly with the mods and the [Accumulating Whipclaw] augment. [Blood Rush] and Gladiator mods for easy red crits. [Weeping Wounds] for more status and better damage against higher level targets. If you don't have a riven, I would suggest using [Toxic Blight] instead, and replacing [Gladiator Might] with [Pressure Point] (preferably primed). Melee damage can also be supplemented with Arcane [Fury].

If you're like me and don't use the stat stick as a weapon on it's own, it allows for more leeway in what riven negatives are acceptable (I have negative range on mine, for instance, since modded range does not affect whipclaw)

I use [Mire] because I have a riven for it, but any high dispo weapon will work just the same
