    Hex does not affect Saving Throws. It affects Ability checks. Still a good spell rider. It is great in combo with grappling to impair the opponent's Str or Dex check.

      Correct. Mostly used as a damage boost and can be transferred from target to target once the first one dies.

    Healing word is the most overpowered 5E spell for *any* level. But in fairness, this has a lot more to do with the failings behind the knocked out/dying mechanics of 5E: not sure why nobody thought of putting a limit on immediately getting back up to fight with any heal with a "wounded" condition that doesn't immediately goes away but as it stands almost anybody playing 5E does so by making sure at least 1 person but usually 3 or even all of the party (Even *Bards* can do it for some reason) can constantly throw bonus action 1d4 heals to each other from 60 feet away so no matter how much damage the enemies put out (Unless it's ridiculously high) they're almost never in actual danger of dying.

      tempered by the rule restricting to only cantrips or actions (non leveled spell) each round it's cast. Also monsters with multiattack may continue to savage the downed character, depending on how the DM runs their monsters. I reckon keeping death saves from resetting until a long rest would spice things up.

    I guess my definition of op is different
    out side of sleep I don't think any of the spells you picked were op. Tasha's hideous laughter? Find familiar? distant whisper? Healing word? sanctuary? heroism.? level 1 has some great spells

      Concur, Dissonant Whispers, if it lands, a little psychic damage then flee auto move provoking attacks of opportunity, allowing all allies in melee to strike using their reactions, including allowing the Rogue to do an out of turn Sneak Attack. This spell does massive damage, no matter the level.

    This list is a joke. 1st lvl has some great spells but OP? Lol
