You can concentrate on two spells with the Concentration tag at once. If you have more than one spell that requires concentration in effect, you have a -5 penalty on on any constitution saving throw made to maintain concentration on one of the spells. Constitution saving throws meant to maintain concentration should be rolled for each spell in effect and you always lose concentration on the spell with the higher level first. If both spells are of the same level, then you may choose which spell to lose concentration on.
*Important note: the -5 penalty to constitution saves made to maintain concentration only applies if the saving throw is triggered while 2 spells are being concentrated on. the -5 penalty applies to both rolls even if concentration is lost on the first spell when both saves were rolled.*
Example:
Whiner the Wizard has a 2nd level concentration spell and and 4th level concentration spell in effect and gets hit for 10 damage.
Whiner must make 2 constitution saving throws each at a DC of 10 in order to maintain concentration on both spells.
Whiner rolls a 11 for one roll and an 18 for the second and has a constitution saving throw modifier of +2.
The result of the first roll would be 8 and is calculated as follows. 11 (rolled number) +2 (constitution save modifier) -5 (penalty for concentrating on 2 spells) . Whiner failed his constitution saving throw and lost concentration on the highest level spell currently being concentrated on, which is 4th level in this case.
The result of the second roll would be 15 and is calculated as follows. 18 (rolled number) +2 (constitution save modifier) -5 (penalty for concentration on 2 spells). Whiner succeeds his constitution saving throw and maintains concentration on the remaining spell, which is 2nd level.
