05-21-05, 07:43 PM If PC is casting a spell with casting time 1 round, effect comes before PC's next turn. If between ending of current turn (when spell was casted) and beginning of the next turn PC will be successfuly attacked has PC concentration check or not? Where I can found this information in the PHB?

Thanks

05-21-05, 07:56 PM Unless the duration does not have a "Concentration" entry or there is no reason for the caster to maintain any form of concentration on the spell (such as when a spell has already been cast), he need not make a Concentration check, as he need not concentrate.

PHB, pg. 174: Casting Time. Explains it all. 4th paragraph, to be exact.

In short, you're casting the spell for an entire round. If you're hit while you're casting the spell, you must make a concentration check (DC = 10 + damage dealt. PHB, pg. 70: table.) Also, the footnotes under the table are very helpful.
