How to learn
Classes:
- Class Level 1: Warlock
Notes
- Hex damage is applied multiple times for multiple successful Attack rolls. Example scenarios:
- Warlock hits the target with a melee or ranged weapon attack: additional 1d6Necrotic.
- Level 1 Warlock casts Eldritch Blast and hits the target: additional 1d6Necrotic.
- Level 5 Warlock casts Eldritch Blast and hits the target with both rays: additional 2d6Necrotic, for hitting twice.
- Level 3 Warlock casts Scorching Ray and hits the target with all three rays: additional 3d6Necrotic, for hitting three times.
- Level 5 Warlock casts Scorching Ray and hits the target with all four rays: additional 4d6Necrotic, for hitting four times.
- Hex is only triggered by hitting the target with a successful Attack Roll, and not by other sources of damage. Example scenarios:
- Warlock casts Magic Missile (which does not require Attack Rolls): no additional damage from Hex.
- Warlock casts Fireball (which is a Saving Throw, not an Attack Roll): no additional damage from Hex.
- In Early Access Patch 9, there is a bugged interaction between Hex and the Eldritch Invocation Agonising Blast, which causes Agonising Blast bonus damage to be applied an extra time for each instance of Hex damage.
- In the case of a level 5 Warlock with two Eldritch Blast beams, this means Agonising Blast damage will be applied a total of 4 times, if both beams hit: once for each beam, and once for each instance of Hex damage.
