Find Traps 35 -2 = 33 This spell still has some usage in my campaigns.

Mordenkainen's Sword 24
Ray of Enfeeblement 8
True Strike 34 +1 = 35 No one will ever use it.

Edit: Removed Bladeward that had been reintroduced in earlier post. Or can we resurect some? If it is so, I wasn't aware of that...

Find Traps 31 - Does NOT tell you where the trap is.

Incremented Find Traps by 2 instead of 1.

Abi-Dalzim's Horrid Wilting 19

Incremented Wilting by 6 (!!!) instead of 1. (Still feeling under the weather?) ;) (or maybe misread 13 as 18)

For worst "spell" ever I nominate . . . *drum-roll*

ROUGE (instead of Rogue) !!!

The slight coloring of cheeks has no clearly written game mechanics, so we can't argue RAW. Apparently, the RAI was simply to annoy the crap out of those of us with OCD that actually know how to spell.

This "spell" only made it into 5e because it was a tradition from previous editions, and so widely abused that it could neither be removed nor properly modified to avoid the inevitable edition-wars threads that it would inspire.

The worst thing about this "spell" is that too many players think that ROUGE is actually a real class! When somebody tells me about their Fighter/ROUGE build all that I can think about is a foppish French courtier with a rapier, a white wig, and bright red cheeks.

No, they were right. Lowkey had it at 34 before Ivy gave it +1.

Wilting though... yeah.

Edit: In facy, it can all be tied back to Lowkey...

So here's the adjusted scores:
Abi-Dalzim's Horrid Wilting 12
Drawmij's Instant Summons 21
Feign Death 31
Find Traps 32
Friends 21
Mordenkainen's Sword 22
True Strike 33
