The rule does not say it only 'applies' to the target, or only 'applies' regarding damage.The rule says, " Instead, the most potent effect—such as the highest bonus—from those castings applies while their durations overlap".Only one 'spell effect' applies. 'Triggers/damages/ends early' are ALL part of that spell's 'spell effect'. Therefore, only one 'trigger', only one set of damage, and only one 'ends early' applies. There is nothing to support your idea that it only refers to the damage part, or that it only applies to parts that impact the target of the spell.Heh. Since I wrote that no-one is disputing the part about 'most potent', some people have started doing that. Well done.Incidentally, I agree with you that it's talking about slot level if it's a spell, or about 'highest numerical bonus' or 'most dice to roll' otherwise.I disagree about the priority regarding two spells of the same potency. In that case, the original spell is the one that continues to apply, because the second spell has no power to stop the first from applying, only one spell can apply, and they cannot combine. A more potent spell could stop the first from applying simply because it must itself apply because it is the most potent and the first is not the most potent any longer so it ceases to apply. But otherwise the first continues to apply because nothing has happened that would prevent it from applying.</blockquote>
