That seems a bit weird, doesnt it?

That means monks can now make use of Great Weapon Master.
Seems very, very strong to me, especially in combination with stunning and a large number of attacks, even on the low levels.

I am against this tbh haha
I suppose this brings the # of builds that actually make use of Human's Polearm Proficiency to 2.
- Human Pact of the Blade Warlocks can now use polearms instead of just simple weapons. (I still think that Blade Warlocks should gain proficiency in their pact weapon, no matter its type)
- Human Monks getting Polearm Proficiency allows them to use weapons strictly better than normal monk weapons. They'll gain a die size of damage, reach, and access to GWM. This should combine well with the Sentinel feat, but half of Polearm Master is redundant with Monk's Martial Arts.
