Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Concentration spells seem to be useless in BG3

I think it really depends on the spell. Some really useful spells suffer from it and it's not worth the spellpoint cost, haste for example. On the other side some really powerfull spells can be countered by trying to concentrait on the caster. Downside the AI has the same idea which is especially a problem when they outnumber you. But I learned to take it and make the best out of it. Very often because they want to focus your spellcaster I try to position him in a way the rest of my team have an easier way to target the enemies instead. If the area allows it I also tend to hit and run with the spellcaster and buff his defences with abilities from others.
