Shocking grasp gave advantage on characters wearing very specific pieces of armour, which were not common, at least a few patches back - I've not checked the most recent patch.

(Mostly, it's useful as a Larian-ism surface abuse spell... cover an area in water, and you've got a cantrip that now does a die of damage to every target for multiple rounds without a save. It's silly and broken.)

The biggest issue that I have with the current patch is Crown of Madness is granted literally everyone advantage on its save, for no reason. Every creature, regardless of race or other abilities, rolls with advantage to save against this spell, currently, in every circumstance. It is not like other charm effects that grant advantage if you are fighting the enemy - crown of madness is specifically designed as a combat spell and doesn't have that caveat, so only targets that actually have advantage against charm effects should be getting advantage.
