It's also a versatile combatant, since you can either use ranged or melee attacks situationally to your advantage. The build is a bit low on feats and/or ability level ups but this is made up for by the power of the abilities you'll possess.
When the creature that is cursed in this way falls, you can use your next bonus action to transfer the hex to a different enemy, effectively casting the spell multiple times on different baddies using only a single spell slot. It's cast as a bonus action and adds 1d6 necrotic damage to every successful attack on this target. Any other spells are entirely up to you but this one is part of the bread and butter.
