Friends gives advantage on all Charisma checks towards a creature for 1 minute. Advantage is pretty good. But I have two problems with the spell.
1. I'm aware the spell is only a cantrip and must have a limitation of some sort to prevent using it on every Charisma check. But I think that turning the target hostile is pretty harsh. This way I wouldn't even use it on some merchant.
My suggestion would be that the target creature turns hostile for 2d6 days and the next Charisma against the creature even after that period is with disadvantage.
2. My second problem with the spell is the short duration. Actually I can't imagine a lot of useful situations for the spell. My first idea for the spell was to cast it while haggling with a merchant. But with such a short duration the merchant would turn hostile until he has fetched the item.
My suggestion would be to extend the duration to 1 hour but limit advantage to only one check during the spell's duration.
What do you think?
