[Rules] Extra damage not gated behind a save is part of damage roll

In this case, the target should have rolled Concentration once against the total damage, since the extra damage is not gated behind a save and therefore is part of the Attack's damage.

(Sorry I pasted a screen shot, but it did not get preserved.)

The issue happened on an attack with a Lightbringer Longbow.   The extra radiant damage from the Lightbringer is not behind a save, and therefore is part of the damage roll, not a separate source of damage.   It should result in a single Concentration check against the total, not separate checks against the Piercing and Radiant damages.

Hey!

The image you posted did not load properly.

Are you talking about Concentration rolls for multiple attacks?
