My group has only just started playing WoT, (though
we've been playing D&D for decades) and one of my players brought up
an interesting question in our first session. If concentrating on a weave that requires concentration is a full round action, how do you accomplish anything else while concentrating on that weave? You couldn't even move except 5' per round. We found the followingin the errata: "Q: Blade of Fire, Fiery Sword, Tool of Air, and Wand of Fire all seem to be useless if a channeler doesn't have the Tie Off Weave feat, due to the fact that concentrating on a weave is a full round action. Can a channeler, for example, attack with a Fiery Sword if she doesn't tie it off? A: To concentrate on a weave while attacking, the channeler must make a Concentration check (DC 15 + casting level)." Is this considered official or unofficial, and does it applt to all weaves with Concentration? Does it apply to all standard or move equivalent actions other than attacking? thanks. |

That's as official an errata as we will ever get (it did come from the mouth of the WoT RPG project leader though, so it's pretty dang official). And yes, it does apply to all weaves with concentration, but the DC may differ. if you look on page 74 of the RPG book it has a chart detailing the Concentration DC's for various situations (the attacking while concentrating 'errata' was just an extrapolation of the DC for maintaining a weave while experiencing violent motion.) -------------------- Patterns in the Weave: Aermon, son of

Exactly, if you do nothing but concentrate on the
weave (doing no other actions) you don't have to make a concentration
check, doing anything else requires it. And yes it applies to all other
weaves with concentration listed as the time of effect.
