[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 9123784, member: 6704184"] You literally just proved my point, melodramatically. The Monk class feature does not say that you can make a TWF attack and a martial arts attack in the same turn. Mentioning simple weapons is irrelevant. It could mention them in every sentence of the class writeup, and it wouldn’t change that nowhere does it say what you are trying to claim it says. You can use the biggest font possible, it doesn’t change what is in the monk feature writeup. Literally nothing you quoted makes the interaction in question explicitly clear in the feature text. The player has to know how the monk works and how TWF with a Nick weapon works, and have a DM that doesn’t think it’s broken (it’s not, but that doesn’t stop DMs banning stuff), and not assume that the Nick property’s language stating that you can still take this additional attack once means you can take any additional attack in the same turn. Meanwhile, the rule will be clarified before print if it stays, because martial arts and TWF aren’t the only ways to make bonus action attacks. So, as I said (objectively correctly) we will see when the monk is next playtested and then when the book come out. 🤷‍♂️ [/QUOTE]
