[QUOTE="ggeilman, post: 6101341, member: 6705347"] Full round yes, but not 1 round. The casting was considered to have taken from the start of the players action to the end of the players action in 3.5 and the spell took affect at the beginning of the next round. The difference in Pathfinder is you are considered to be still casting the ENTIRE ROUND and can be interrupted. 3.5 changed this from 3.0 and it seems Pathfinder is going back to 3.0 on this. Pathfinder distinguishes between 1 round and a full round where 3.5 did not. Part of the problem is the SRD was somewhat different than the printed Core Rules so you can't always go by what is written in the SRD in 3.5 without going to the source. [SIZE=3]A spell that takes 1 round to cast is a full-round action. It comes into effect just before the beginning of your turn in the round after you began casting the spell. You then act normally after the spell is completed.
