Hello whoever reads this, I was looking into the details of the new Dedicated Weapon feature you can take optionally for monks. One of the requirements for the chosen weapon to become a monk weapon is that the weapon can't be two-handed or have special properties. Of course, then most martial polearms and the greatsword can't be a monk weapon. But what about weapons with the versatile property? A longsword doesn't specifically have the Two-Handed property like a greatsword, but you are still capable of wielding it with two hands for more possible damage. Do I lose the Martial Arts benefits if I choose to attack with my longsword as a monk weapon using both hands? Does this restriction apply to weapons that specifically have the Two-Handed property, or does using a weapon with both hands in general take away Martial Arts benefits?

Oh wait dismiss this thread. I reread the feature. Two-Handed weapons are allowed. I'm a dum-dum. Have a good day.
