One of my players asked me to post this question:
Does this paragraph mean that:
a) You can make a regular (ie not off-hand) attack with a special monk weapon and make an unarmed strike as an off-hand attack, BUT NOT VICE-VERSA.
b) As above but OR VICE-VERSA.
I ruled a).
What is your take on this.
PHB, page 39
A monk fighting with a one-handed weapon can make an unarmed strike as an off-hand attack, but she suffers the standard penalties for two-weapon fighting (see Table 8–2: Two- Weapon Fighting Penalties, page 125). Likewise, a monk with a weapon (other than a special monk weapon) in her off hand gets an extra attack with that weapon but suffers the usual penalties for two-weapon fighting and can’t strike with a flurry of blows (see below).
