ok if anyone is familiar with the PYROKINETICIST
Prestige Class from 3.5 im playing a character from the psionics it has the ability to create a whip but can the whip use aoo's even if it says ranged touch attacks??
That’s some 3rd party stuff so answers may be mixed but the ability says this:
The whip remains in existence as long as the pyrokineticist holds it and is treated for mechanical purposes as a whip.
So mechanically, it should threaten the same as an actual whip.

A pyrokineticist gains the ability to fashion a 15-foot-long whip of fire from unstable ectoplasm as a move-equivalent action. She takes no damage from a fire lash she creates, and if she releases her hold, it immediately dissipates. The lash deals 1d8 points of fire damage to a target within 15 feet on a successful ranged touch attack. A pyro can take Weapon Focus and Weapon Specialization (if she otherwise meets the prerequisites) in conjunction with the fire lash, as well as any feats that apply to the use of a standard whip. The whip remains in existence as long as the pyrokineticist holds it.
RAW i dont think so, since whips dont threaten
A whip deals no damage to any creature with an armor bonus of +1 or higher or a natural armor bonus of +3 or higher. The whip is treated as a melee weapon with a 15-foot reach, though you don’t threaten the area into which you can make an attack. In addition, unlike most other weapons with reach, you can use it against foes anywhere within your reach (including adjacent foes).
Using a whip provokes an attack of opportunity, just as if you had used a ranged weapon.
if you had the improved whip mastery feat it would technically work i think
