Well, not every spell, of course. Still Aganazzar's scorcher did have a bit more too it before 3e-5e made it "it just does pew pew fire damage".

How about Ray of Ondovior it's only 2nd level and forces a target to repeat their actions from the last round. Oh, but then maybe it never got updated? It does depend where you are looking for spell too.

Also note Ondovior is not "Elminster and friends". Really the Realms has tons of powerful spellcasters that make spells.



Ray of Ondovir suffered from being too powerful for its level. Note that even 5th level's dominate person prevents self-destructive orders.
