The SendingStone review

The Swarm of Wasps has a low challenge rating of 1/2, but should not be underestimated due to the swarm's ability to deal a considerable amount of damage. Additionally, the wasps' natural armor makes it more difficult to hit them. However, their lack of alignment and charisma, along with their condition immunities, limits the creature's abilities to interact with adventurers outside of combat. Overall, the Swarm of Wasps is a formidable opponent in combat, but lacks versatility outside of that context.
