The Urumi is a Whip in Elden Ring. It becomes available partway through a run, in Liurnia of the Lakes.

The Urumi is a weapon of extremely thin, flexible metal blades that Nightfolk warriors wield like a whip, and though it is a whip with a cutting edge it can also thrust like a spear. It lies on a corpse guarded by four Fingercreepers on the ramparts below the Manor Upper Level Site of Grace at Caria Manor in Liurnia of the Lakes. It is the only whip that deals slash damage rather than strike, and its unique strong attack is a slash followed by a thrust. Its high Dexterity scaling suits the Keen and Lightning affinities, reaching S Dexterity scaling on Keen when fully upgraded. It suits a Dexterity character, and it makes a good backup for quality builds that use strike weapons.

Stats

The Urumi is the only whip that deals Slash instead of Strike, and its unique heavy attack is a slash followed by a thrust, so it covers enemies weak to slash and pierce. Its Dexterity scaling suits Keen and Lightning infusions, with Keen reaching S Dexterity at max upgrade, a ceiling that only pays off for a character with high Dexterity.

Skill

Kick costs 0 FP. The wielder plants a high front kick that pushes the enemy back and deals enormous stamina damage to anyone guarding, breaking the guard of nearly any shield. The kick itself deals little damage and costs no FP. The Divine Bird Warrior Greaves boost it. It is the weapon's default Ash of War, so another can take its place.

"Push an enemy back with a high kick. Effective against enemies who are guarding, and can break a foe's stance. Sometimes a simple tool is the most effective."

Suggested Build

Played at whip range with a Dexterity focus, mixing slashes and thrusts, either as a main whip or as a backup to cover slash damage.

Stats	Dexterity to 60, then 80, Vigor 50, Mind 20, Endurance 24, Strength 10 to 18
Affinity	Keen for the highest Dexterity scaling, or Lightning, whose damage also scales with Dexterity.
Ash of War	Kick, its default, to break blocks, or Raptor of the Mists to set up power-stanced jumping attacks.
Talismans	Winged Sword Insignia, Rotten Winged Sword Insignia, Millicent's Prosthesis

Notes

"This weapon made of extremely thin, flexible blades of metal is wielded like a whip by Nightfolk warriors. Though in essence a whip with a cutting edge, it can also be used as a spear to pierce foes."
