Is Line of Sight Blocked by Wall of Fire?

[Nail]

Question is the thread's title.

Generally speaking, "Wall" spells block line of sight, with the prominent exception of Wall of Force, and potentially the incredibly nasty Druid spell Wall of Thorns. I can imagine being able to see through a fire....or NOT being able to see through fire, depending on the flames.

The spell description doesn't address this directly, but says: "An immobile, blazing curtain of shimmering violet fire springs into existence...."

Thoughts?

I'd say blocks it.

I can't find any references that say fire provides concealment. However, smoke does (20% concealment).

Your call.

Hi!

... but the Effect entry does: OPAQUE sheet of flame...

Kind regards

What Scharlata said. Wall of fire blocks line of sight even if it doesn't block line of effect.

Well what do you know....it's in the entry. Huh.
