The Monk will not graphically use 1H weapons when performing Spirit Generator moves.

1. Log into Diablo 3 with a monk.
2. Create and equip Journeyman Heavy Axe.
3. Perform a Spirit Generator attack.
4. ---> The Monk will not graphically use the Journeyman Heavy Axe in his attacks.

It may simply not be intended for Monks to use weapons such as Journeyman Heavy Axe or Apprentice Sabre.

Hey Lighthammer,

Monks will not use their weapons if they are using punching or kicking abilities. Your weapon will stay sheathed so it does not look weird. We made it this way so the fantasy of being a Monk isn't broken when you punch with an axe.

However, attacks like the Basic Attack will use the Monk's weapons, so there are a few Monk skills that graphically show their weapons being used.
