So my friend and I are currently in a clash between the Deathtouch rules. We’re torn between if a ping ability. Say I put a Fire Whip on a Typhoid Rats and tap to ping a Worldspine Wurm. Does it die?

All damage dealt by a source with deathtouch is the same, whether it’s combat damage or not. 

The damage dealt by a Typhoid Rat using the ability granted to it by Fire Whip will be lethal to any creature.

If I equip typhoid rats with pathway arrows and use the ability against say siege rhino, will siege rhino die? My friend is saying that because typhoid rats has deathtouch that the damage dealt is deathtouch damage.

Your friend is correct. Typhoid Rats is dealing the damage, so deathtouch’s effect applies here. Deathtouch applies to all damage a creature with deathtouch deals, not just combat damage.

Be careful with these sorts of effects from equipment, though, since sometimes it’s the equipment dealing the damage, not the creature.
