The elemental spellcasting part is kind of the core of the class to me. Maybe I could word it better, but the concept is an arcane spellcaster who combines the verbal and somatic components of a spell into a dance. It's just that by virtue of the training they need to undergo to spelldance...

Given that standard fight length is supposed to be 3 rounds, giving up a whole turn to dodge and make one swing without modifier damage is a big sacrifice. Honestly I don't imagine it will be used very often, it's more a flavorful thing to have in a pinch. I wasn't cherry-picking spells for...

Sure, but it's not concentration which in some ways is a key distinction since you can only concentrate on one thing at a time. Flagging it as such would require different special snowflake status stating that oh you can concentrate on two things but only with this effect as one of the things...

Ah, yeah, hah. And after I proofread and everything. Thanks!
