Re: Re: Re: Re: Defensive Casting
Interesting... Perhaps a special use of the Intimidate skill is in order. It could be used kinda like the bluff/feint ability to give an opposing spellcaster a penalty on concentration checks for a short time.
We could call it Threaten or something.
Very interesting indeed... but then, I could just be crazy.

PS. I'm all for keeping the Casting Defensively bit as-is, but making more ways to affect your opponents Concentration checks could make them a little more interesting.

Cast Defensively - it seems wrong that a mage has as much chance to lose his spell because he's worried about the AoO from the goblin, as from the blackguard with his vorpal sword. Something should reflect the higher level of stress when facing a more dangerous opponent at point-blank range and performing an action that usually leaves one open to attack.
