Since you only concentrate on a single spell at a time, that means only the best concentration spell at a level gets a good rating.My personal view is that outside of my limited case above, spells are either good or bad and whether they need concentration doesn't meaningfully impact that.Now, sure, you could make an item to concentrate on a spell for a single round for you: but I think that would just add complexity when simply abolishing concentration from those scenarios would be better because it's not appropriate for them.</blockquote>
