Hello. I have two quick questions.
First, if a caster is concentrating on a spell such as Detect Magic and casts another spell or takes any other standard action such as attacks in melee, is the concentration on the original spell automatically broken? Or is concentration on the initial spell only broken if one of the conditions that forces him to make a concentration check applies, such as being distracted, struck in combat or grappled?
Second, if a caster is concentrating on a spell such as Detect Magic and casts another spell which requires concentration such as Detect Undead, can he keep concentration on both spells and use both spells actively and simultaneously?
Thanks in advance for your assistance in regards to this matter. Its been wracking my brains trying to figure out the spirit of the rules for concentration skill according to the PHB.
