== 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 {{DamageText|1d6|Necrotic}}.
** Level 1 Warlock casts {{SmallIcon|Eldritch Blast Icon.png}} [[Eldritch Blast]] and hits the target: additional {{DamageText|1d6|Necrotic}}.
** Level 5 Warlock casts {{SmallIcon|Eldritch Blast Icon.png}} [[Eldritch Blast]] and hits the target with '''both''' rays: additional {{DamageText|2d6|Necrotic}}, for hitting twice.
** Level 3 Warlock casts {{SmallIcon|Scorching Ray Icon.png}} [[Scorching Ray]] and hits the target with '''all three rays''': additional {{DamageText|3d6|Necrotic}}, for hitting three times.
** Level 5 Warlock casts {{SmallIcon|Scorching Ray Icon.png}} [[Scorching Ray]] and hits the target with '''all four rays''': additional {{DamageText|4d6|Necrotic}}, 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 {{SmallIcon|Magic Missile Icon.png}} [[Magic Missile]] (which always hits): no additional damage from '''Hex'''.
** Warlock casts {{SmallIcon|Fireball Icon.png}} [[Fireball]] (which is a [[Saving Throw]], not an Attack Roll): no additional damage from '''Hex'''.
