When used properly this spell is scary effective at shutting down/killing enemies. Drop & Grovel are the most immediately strong (for obvious reasons), but flee, and approach can tear apart enemies that are in things like Spike Growth.

I dont think people are exploiting the (Drop) feature of this spell enough. It lets you make any creature wielding a weapon or something in their hands drop it. If u go into turn based mode and use a rogue/sneak you'll be able to pick up the weapons too. Sometimes it considered stealing, but sometimes its a quest item and its circumvented. This feature is good to get the Lantern from Kraniss the Drider without fighting him or Boss/Npcs that are holding magic weapons that you wanna take without killing them.

Seems to break Concentration as well for some reason (Halt was able to stop Hex at least, although by its description alone this is possibly an unintended effect since it is supposed to stop BA, Action, and Reactions). Kind of OP for that reason alone since it bypasses the damage roll with a much easier Save roll.

Best spell in the game. Lvl 1 and can disable almost anyone by making them lie on the ground.
If it's enemy with a weapon this spell makes them completely useless (they don't grab their weapon from the ground and just continue fight with fists)
