Spell target can be "too high" yet within range of the spell, which makes zero sense and severely reduces the effectiveness of the spell. E.g. there are targets that you can hit with an Eldritch Blast, yet not with a Hex, because they are too high. This seems to be true of all spells/cantrips that have saving throws rather than attack saves, and I have no idea why. I assume it's a bug? I can't find any D&D rule for it, either, but I don't play D&D regularly so maybe I'm wrong. It's also possible the target is obscured, though they don't LOOK obscured, and I'm not getting the "path is blocked" message you usually get, I'm getting a "Target is Too High!" message specifically. Super annoying, because it turns an encounter that should be a 3 difficulty into a 7 difficulty by making half my characters useless and gimping the other half.

If you have 2 chars who can utilise hex e.g. warlock and lvl4 warlock feat..both benefit from the Same hex..at least in some cases so thats a bug obviously

Currently (EA) doesn't work with sacred flame (dexterity disadvantage doesn't change chances to hit).
