Heavy (weapon property)

For an explanation of all weapon properties, see Weapon.

Heavy is a weapon attribute that denotes a particularly large weapon. Small creatures have Disadvantage on attack rolls with Heavy weapons. A Heavy weapon’s size and bulk make it too large for a Small creature to use effectively. (This penalty is not yet implemented as of EA Patch 9.)

Heavy weapons have special interactions with certain Feats, such as Great Weapon Master.
