Casting in 2nd Edition

I thought I remember reading somewhere that I could start casting a 3 action spell at the end of my turn and finish it off on the next round. However looking back in the core book I cant seem to find where I read that. Is that something I was dreaming or I did read it and now just cant find it?

Thanks.


That was true in 1st edition, but in 2nd it is explicitly not allowed. Multi-action activities still have to be completed within a single turn:

You have to spend all the actions of an activity at once to gain its effects. In an encounter, this means you must complete it during your turn. If an activity gets interrupted or disrupted in an encounter (page 462), you lose all the actions you committed to it.
