Hold Person spell needs to be taken out of the game.
This is the most broken ability i have ever seen in a game ever in my life. I literally cannot think of a more broken ability in a video game. Please just take it out. Its cheap, its skilless, and beyond broken.

You finished the game yet? If not, you'll see. There's some truly frustrating stuff that some of the bosses do.

It can effect a single target and needs to be concentrated on to maintain. Its not that hard to deal with it if you know what you are doing.

Well yeah hold person and hold monster are about the most powerful spells you can cast. I lucked out on raphael after over an hour of losing constantly until I got hold monster off and Lae'zel basicly oneshot him with a potion of speed

If thats broken, then this level 1 wind spell that has pushed at least 12 enemies off cliffs and other heights over the course of a few long rests must be incredibly broken

oh wait its not? just like how that concentration spell that can fail isnt broken.

As nicely as I can put it...think harder about your encounters, or play on exploration difficulty.

Welp, I guess you've never played D&D before. The spell has been around for literally longer than you're alive. Unless you're 50+ years old...

Target the caster with a high level magic missile. Let them try to hold concentration with that hitting them.
