Example scenario:
A Wizard is under the effects of Death Ward.
He's concentrating on a spell.
He's at 21/100 HP.
He gets hit for 50 damage, potentially dropping him to 0 HP.
Death Ward triggers. Wizard is at 1/90 HP.
What is the DC to keep concentration on his spell? Options I see:
(Unlikely option) he technically dropped to 0 and lost concentration before Death Ward brought him back.
(Somewhat likely) he took 50 damage, so the DC is 25. The fact that the end result was overridden doesn't change that he took 50 damage.
(Somewhat likely) he was at 21. Now he's at 1. He took 20 damage, so the DC is 10.
