Does anyone wish we had some abilities that actually use our weapons, like Jab in MoP? Always felt weird that the cinematic shows Chen primarily using his staff, but all we do is punch and kick.
Nope I play a master of hand to hand combat so I can hand to hand. If i want to swing swords and kick I play my rogue…

So if you had one ability where you used your weapon, and 6 other abilities where you punched and kicked, you’d feel too much like a rogue..? 
There was a book that I picked up in Legion remix Class Hall starting area in Pandaria that allowed my character to Tiger Palm using the weapon. I forgot the name of the book I picked up, but it’s definitely out there.
Oh my god, you’re right! Thank you!

SBJ I forgot all about this one, thank you haha
I’d probably redesign the class so that the staff is the only weapon option and I’d design it to be wielded like a bo staff. Monk melee attacks are way too floaty and we desperately need that visceral thwack that only a bo staff could provide. Monk is by far the least crunchy of the melee specs in the game and I’d argue it’s the primary reason the class is so unpopular to play. Its attacks don’t feel impactful, with the possible exception of keg smash.

I prefer hands and feet but more options are always a good thing. I wish I could hide weapons on my casters. They are just as useless.

There should definitely be options. I myself have always wanted to use my weapon more as a monk. Having Jab back is nice but I do indeed want more!
Also we should get glyphs making things more kick based. Would loved a feet of fury option.

I would loooove this. Part of the appeal to me of monk is being a staff wielding mystic. Everything you’ve described here sounds amazing.
