There are significant tactical differences as a consequence.I don't remember well, but I think also in 3e you couldn't maintain more than one concentration spell, since maintaining concentration was a standard action (in some rare cases, a caster could have more than one standard per round). Rather, the difference is that there were probably much less spells with "duration: concentration" than there are now requiring concentration, but in 5e it takes no action to concentrate! Also I don't think in 3e you needed a concentration check to cast those spells.Anyway, I think personally I'm going to be loose with concentration checks and making up the DC on the fly, rather than following strictly the "DC10 or nothing" for non-damaging distractions.</blockquote>
