Message: <blockquote data-quote="Pauper" data-source="post: 6826749" data-attributes="member: 17607">Almost there -- the 'only' in the rule also applies, so if natural weapons don't count as monk weapons, but do count as weapons, they also prevent the use of Martial Arts, because they cause the character to be armed with a weapon that is not a monk weapon. (Edit: if natural weapons really aren't weapons, then a character with only natural weapons would be unarmed and thus also qualify for the benefits of Martial Arts, so that much is still true.)But yes, by the way the rule reads, you can make an unarmed strike as a monk while wielding a greatsword, but you can't use the benefits from Martial Arts while doing so. Changing this is changing the text of the rule, which would be a house-rule as defined by Kalani and not allowed in Adventurers League.--Pauper</blockquote>
