Hindered (5e Variant Rule)
From D&D Wiki
If your attack is hindered or has hindrance, you don't add your PB to the attack roll.
If the attack is already hindered or you otherwise don't add your PB, then instead the attack automatically misses without rolling.
Whenever your willing use of a weapon is improper or pushes the weapon's limits, the attack has hindrance (instead of disadvantage). This includes when you:
- Attack in a weapon's long range.
- Attack with a weapon not sized for you, such as a Small creature wielding a "Heavy" weapon.
- Make a ranged attack in close combat.
- Attack with an improvised weapon, or attack with a weapon in an improvised way—such as swinging a greataxe with one hand.
