      If the combat log is to believed, at this moment of writing, it seems all Slowed targets get a flat -2 to ALL their saves, not just dexterity.

        Any other ways to impose disadvantage on saving throws from Slow besides multiclass to sorcerers 3lvl for Heightened Spell?

          You can target the same enemy multiple times to help make sure they fail their save for the initial cast.

            Slept on this my first playthrough. The AI does not know how to deal with only having one action, a lot of times they will use their bonus action special ability or a jump and just stand there like "uhhhhhhh"

              REALLY really really good spell if you can land it. a sorcerer dedicated to casting this with Heightened Spell can make fights an actual breeze. slowed targets lose AC so if your party is blessed while your enemies are slowed you'll not only be taking less damage but consistently dealing more too. i recommend taking War Caster as a feat ASAP and saving most of your other spell slots for Counterspell.

                Does halving enemy movement stack with other movement halving effects? So like a quarter movement if there's multiplicative stacking or no movement if there's additive stacking?

                  I may be stupid but how do I cast slow on less than the maximum amount of targets? If there's only 5 targets in range I can't figure out how to actually cast the spell if there isn't a 6th target to click on. Using a scroll btw

                    Also the entity can't take reactions or make more than 1 attack per turn and can only take either an action or a bonus action.
