Hex

Hex places a magical curse on a unit that weakens their abilities or imposes a negative effect over time. Hexed units suffer from reduced effectiveness in some aspect of their performance, whether it is lower damage output, reduced healing received, or impaired ability usage.

Hex is a versatile debuff that functions differently from direct stat reductions. It tends to come from magic-wielding enemies and boss encounters. Cleansing Hex quickly is important since its effects compound over time. Holy-element abilities or specific cleanse effects can remove Hex. When applied to enemies, Hex can soften up dangerous targets before your team commits to engaging them.
