the monk is wielding a 1H cudgel in one hand and a 1H sabre in the other. The Monk also picks up a 2H sword, but he can't use it. It isn't a Barbarian only sword, because it would say "Barbarian" clearly on the right and the only red text is the sword itself.
Notice the red popup notification "This item cannot be equipped by your class." This is said again later on in the video when the monk tries to equip a bow.
Dual-wielding two 1H swords on the Monk is great, I think it's awesome (it's probably what I'll be using). As for the 2H sword: it could just be some 2H swords, or the Monk just can't use 2H swords at all.
Can any beta players try and equip any 2H swords you find on your monk to see if they're usable? Also a post on the official forum could garner a blue response to help clear up Monk weapon restrictions.

The final test of the Serpent's Form takes place in "The Pit of 12 Vipers." The initiates are not told about the 13th.
I think the Monk cant use any 2H Weapon besides Staffs and Polearms (so he cant use 2H Swords/Axes/Maces). And it looks like he can use any 1H Weapon that isnt Class Specific (like those Daggers for the WH). Oh and he cant use any ranged Weapons.
No ranged weapons? Could you source that?
That's weird. Can the Barbarian use ranged weapons?

In the video I SS'd above, the beta tester also tried to equip a Bow and it gave the same "your class can't use this" message as the 2H sword did. I don't know if the Barbarian can use bows/xbows, but I would imagine it can use Throwing Spears i.e javelin.

I believe it says "mage 2handed sword." maybe it's wizard only but i doubt it. it could be a level restriction but maybe monk's wont be able to use 2handed swords. either way they can still use 2handed staves.
