The SendingStone review

The spell “Fog Cloud” is considered to be a useful spell for its ability to hinder enemy movement and provide cover. However, its effectiveness is ultimately dependent on the environment it is cast in and can be easily countered if enemies are equipped with certain abilities or items. Additionally, its concentration requirement means that it cannot be used in conjunction with other spells that also require concentration. Despite its limitations, some classes such as druids and rangers may find this spell to be a valuable addition to their spell repertoire, allowing them to manipulate the battlefield in their favor.
