[QUOTE="TwoSix, post: 7755737, member: 205"] Concentration isn't the same concept as in 5e, though. Concentration spells are much less ubiquitous than in 5e, and you can concentrate on 3 at once, assuming you're willing to devote your actions to do so. (If there's a constraint that only lets you concentrate on one spell, I didn't see it on pages 196-197, where the Concentrate on a Spell action is detailed.) It's more of an action economy constraint in PF2, which isn't a bad thing! I actually quite like most of the spell casting rules in PF2. I do agree that they seem to have dialed back a lot of the buff spells, which is great, as layering buffs was one of the most annoying features of 3.5/PF1. No more [I]blessing of fervor[/I]! I'm not a fan of keeping bonus types, though...a bunch of bonus types that don't stack is worse than a bunch of bonuses that do. I'd also note that heroism and magic weapon/fang are not concentration, and also stack. As does the classic combo of Fly/Greater Invisibility (or Heightened Invisibility, now), of course. So it's probably good you decide to argue with someone who "hasn't read the rulebook", as we've both learned a lot today. And that's one to grow on! :) [/QUOTE]
