... and are they best with their bare hands or would a weapon be better, or even both?

When i have a monk in my party, i usually don't use a missile weapon. Instead, i used martial arts for short range, and the Zatoichi Bo for extended range (and some spells for greater range). Since this is available quite late in the game, i start bare-handed, and switch to Staff of Doom (cursed) when i get it.
But there's only one guaranteed Zatoichi Bo, and i don't think other weapons are worth using with a monk. So that would be hand&feet for the other two.
If your party is more range-oriented, then staff of doom isn't that good (i only use a monk in melee-oriented parties). In this case, better ignore staffs completely.
