If you're lucky, you can cover 2 combats, but let's not forget that each time you are hit you can lose concentration.Spamming cantrips is actually intended by design, but you also have 3 non-concentration spells of 1st level which are easily spammable AND all of them are scalable (just in case you decide not to use some 2nd level spells for conentration spells). They are also nicely chosen to cover the 3 of the most obvious spells functionalities in the game: Dissonant Whisper = single-target damage, Sleep = multi-target disable, Healing Word = cure.If anything, too many concentration spells might result in some analysis-paralysis, but not that significantly in your case: leave Silence and Faerie Fire out for specific scenarios (e.g. spellcaster enemy / invisible enemies, respectively), then it's clear you should use Bane in larger battles and Crown of Madness or Suggestion in smaller battles, the possible baffling choice is between the latter two.</blockquote>
