In the first paragraph, the following sentence has been added to the first paragraph: “Or the most recent effect applies if the castings are equally potent and their durations overlap.”" | |

However, in my DMG that section includes "Game features include spells, class features, feats, racial traits, monster abilities, and magic items", which seems to me to specifically omit non-magic items. | |
