Your fists aren’t finesse weapons so it can’t possibly work. Also fists aren’t considered weapons for feats so second point for it not working for monks.
I have a +1 short sword for the weapon requirement
If that’s the case it should work. Are you actively wielding the sword when you’re hit? Having your bow out will cause melee reactions not to trigger.
Also is the reaction actually turned on? Go to the reactions section of your character page and make sure it’s actually set to trigger.
Having the bow out might be the problem since I usually start combat with him shooting someone at long range. I'll check on that
I bet that's it. I used to have the same problem with opportunity attacks not triggering on my gloomstalker for the same reason. I had to train myself to always swap back to his swords at the end of his turn.
