Having that spell as a reference makes it very clear. Thanks a bunch for that. Wasn't familiar enough with all the different spells to be able to think of/find one easily which bridged the rule gap. I'm not worried about a houserule per se, just knowing that a certain spell is intentionally a certain way helps a ton.

OK, regular old run-of-the-mill concentration spells are easy to end, just stop concentrating. My question rises from spells which have a duration such as: Concentration +1 round/level...etc.

The Core Rulebook states that Concentration spells are, by their very nature, dismissable because you can just stop concentrating on them and they end. However, some concentration spells DON'T just end when you stop concentrating and the book makes no special exception for these.

It seems that, unless there is something I've missed, this can be interpreted one of two ways:

A) These types of spells, once you stop concentrating, continue for whatever duration they have listed after concentration ends and there is nothing you can do about it short of Dispel Magic or similar.

B) These types of spells are instantly dismissable, with no action required, if you end your concentration and you as the caster wish the spell to end as the spell is inherently dismissable.

Which of these interpretations (or any mystery interpretations there may be out there) is correct and what rules reference is there which covers it?

Thanks in advance for any useful input/research on this topic.
