[QUOTE="Blue, post: 7925838, member: 20564"] Three attacks each round for multiple rounds that is. 3 attacks is still only have a little more than half, using the lower limit for what CON and AC will be. Once you start with 3 attacks per round for multiple round in a row in Tier 1, what you are really saying is: "I want half+ of the attacks from the foes to focus fire on the single caster, and assume there's only one caster because otherwise there's not enough attacks to go around, and most foes can reach the caster with attacks regardless of terrain, front line PCs, having to fire at ranged out of melee, ability to realize the caster is the source of the effect, or any other detail." Yes, if there is an encounters where multiple opponents focus fire on the caster, the caster will eventually lose concentration. However, not every encounter is with intelligent opponents, or ones who will recognize the effects of spells, or having ranged attacks. Sometimes they will get focus fired and lose it. Other times they won't have a single attack at them as the dire wolves are stuck fighting the front line at the mouth of the cave. That does not average out to "very easy" you have been claiming.
