You did very well. The first time one finds oneself fighting underneath a Target-Attractant Hex -- which is, I must admit, a terrible word for it, but it is a near translation from the German, and the hex is rarely used enough that no one has ever bothered giving it a less awful name -- can be exceptionally confusing. That you were able to make such a good showing is to your utmost credit.
Every now and then the hex does become fashionable again for some time, particularly when others see it cast or witness a battle in which one combatant is operating under it, despite its finicky nature and long casting-time; it is possible you will find yourself fighting under its effect again in the future. Fortunately, the counter-hex is simple enough to be performed in the midst of the fighting, if you are cognizant enough to realise that is why your luck has turned. I have no doubt you will be able to learn it quickly.
As I said to Mr Weasely: good luck in your future tasks, and I hope you will consider me a resource.
