Starting at 13th level, you can use your reaction to deflect or catch a non - A.O.E spell when you are hit by a ranged spell attack. When you do so, the damage you take from the attack is reduced by 2d12 + your Dexterity modifier + your monk level.
If you reduce the damage to 0, you can catch the spell in one hand and you have at least one hand free. If you catch a spell in this way, you can spend 2 ki point to make a spell attack and combine it with the weapon or piece of ammunition you just caught (for example, giving your short sword elemental damage depending on the spell's type) as part of the same reaction. You make this attack with proficiency, regardless of your weapon proficiencies, and the spell counts as a monk weapon for the attack, which has a normal range of 80 feet and a long range of 120 feet.
