[QUOTE="ValarX, post: 970224, member: 12778"] [b]Mage Neutralization[/b] This mechanic is definitely an interesting one, but perhaps it is unnescesary. One thing that players tend to overlook is their ability to ready an action against certain events. For instance, an archer in the back of the party with a readied action against a caster can disrupt spells fairly well since the mage wouldn't get a concentration check against a readied action. A fighter standing next to the caster with a readied action could drop a full attack the moment the caster went to cast. These are effective ways of neutralizing the concentration check and forcing the caster into the save versus disruption of their spell. Also, for any spells that have casting times beyond one action, don't forget that any attacks against the caster that round (or the number of rounds it takes to cast) will result in the caster having to make a save.
