[QUOTE="Hypersmurf, post: 875665, member: 1656"] I still disagree. If you have Protection from Arrows cast on you by a 3rd level caster and also by a 4th level caster, Detect Magic will reveal two Abjuraton auras. If you get hit by three crossbow bolts, each doing 10 points of damage, then with each hit, both spells lose 10 points of absorption capacity in the course of protecting you. On that third hit, the CL3 spell discharges, so Detect Magic only reveals one aura. The CL4 spell only has 10 points of absorption capacity remaining. If you have two Protection from Fire spells running simultaneously, each capable of protecting you from 60 points of damage, then as soon as point number 60 comes through, [i]both[/i] spells are discharged. That's how I read "overlaps". One spell doesn't supercede the other - both are always doing their job equally. The exception, because it is stated as such, is that Resist Elements puts Endure Elements into Standby Mode. -Hyp. [/QUOTE]
