* In Early Access Patch 9, there is a bugged interaction between '''Hex''' and the [[Eldritch Invocation]] {{SmallIcon|Agonizing Blast Icon.png}} '''Agonizing Blast''', which causes '''Hex''' damage to be triggered by each instance of '''Agonizing Blast''' bonus 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 '''3 times''', if both beams hit.
