Improvised Weapon is also an ability in the game you can use at any time. If you’re strong enough, you can even use gnomes and goblins as weapons! I killed a skeleton by throwing a rat at it in one of the later dungeons.
My monk is just Jackie Channing his way through combat. Punching, kicking, throwing chairs, swinging tables… I walk into a room and I look at every object in it and devise a way to utilize everything in battle. It’s awesome. 😃
