Morningstars are edged weapons pretending to be blunt weapons, actually. Hence the reason you can butcher with them.

So no don't do that.

Whips are neat but they can't compare to morning stars for shear destructive power.

Unless something has been changed recently, then not really.

In adventure mode I was fighting a clown as a necromancer with a dozen zombie trolls and swapping between a steel pick and steel axe both with skill levels around 6-10. Everything was glancing away or at best bruising.

Until I pulled out a basic silver whip with no skill in it and killed the clown with only one shot to the head.

Whips have only 1/10 the contact area of a morningstar, 2.5x the velocity and 50 times the penetration. There's a good reason some people refer to them as "lightsabers."
