Right, so I've been playing a witch in book one of Shattered Star. I've already secured permission to rebuild my character, due to general dissatisfaction with Winter Witch and the revelation we likely won't be continuing into the second book.
As such I am faced with an important question. A few weeks ago the DM decided to nerf Evil Eye, removing the 1 round duration if they pass their Will save. Here is his rationale:
it's designed with a saving throw, as it should be, but mechanically the saving throw is completely ignored.
that's why i said it can't affect them if they pass the save
so it keeps the idea, but is not op
Is it worth playing a witch to fifth level without the Evil Eye+Cackle to ensure that my hexes will affect them, or should I rebuild my character into a wizard?
Also, is there a good way to refute my DM's logic?
