Q: How many wizards does it take to change a lightbulb?

A: 1/100th of a wizard!

Light is 0th level and therefore can be cast as many times a day as desired.

At a 10 minute duration per level and a 6 second cast time, a 1st level wizard could keep 100 lights operational continuously.

Well, until they needed to sleep.


Well no, you can only have one light spell active at the same time.

Reminds me of the old Internet chestnut that you might still find lying around on the net somewhere:

Q: How many AD&D characters does it take to change a light bulb?
A: Is this light bulb worth any gp? Is it worth XP? Then why should I care if it's burnt out?

Q: How many 3rd Edition characters does it take to change a light bulb?

Q: How many Vampire characters does it take to change a light bulb?
A: Three: one to order his minion to change the light bulb, one to proclaim the futility of changing light bulbs when all must eventually grow dark, and one to reflect that all life and joy is as ephemereal as a light bulb.

Oh, there were a ton of 'em.


Q: How many Dark Heresy characters does it take to replace a lightbulb?
A: One, as long as he is a techpriest and has sufficient faith in the Omnissiah... and a good forehand swing with a wrench.

Q: How many Space Marines does it take to replace a lightbulb?

Q: How many board members does it take to screw in a light bulb?

A: We are not sure yet, we are still arguing about the RAW vs. RAI vs. Real Life Physics. We will change it once a dev comes on and gives us the step by step instructions. Even then we will argue about the color of the light, brightness of the light, if it effects undead or not, and how come we are not allowed to screw in 6 bulbs in the same socket to make it even brighter!

Q? How many wizards does it take to change a light bulb?
A. By RAW it is is undefined. There are no relevant feats or skills (though I suppose one could take Profession: Electrician or the GM could rule that the players have access to some Industrial age knowledge) RAI perhaps could allow some form of knowledge check, and then perhaps a full round action (as per "Lighting a torch") Aid could potentially be useful here.This is supported by the fact that a torch can also mean a flashlight in many English speaking countries, I vote to FAQ this topic based on this interpretation.

A Barbarian could use the "Raging Lightality" power at the expense of 3 rounds of rage.

Metahumour (and stuff mostly copy-pasted from TVTropes) is never as funny as it is when you write it.

How many Witches does it take to change a lightbulb?

Me?..change a light bulb?(casts charm hex) now you do want to do it for me don't you, you big handsome man you?


We note with concern the 'jokes' regarding Varisians on this page and call attention to the fact that many Varisians have to labour under the suspicions engendered by such so-called humour.

Varisians are hard working honest folk who only desire to make a good life for themselves and their families....Kindly cease and desist from such humour in future or we will be forced to send our operatives round to ensure your compliance.

Thank you

Why does it have to be "against black"? Brown not good enough for you? What about yellow? Racist.

What do you mean I have to change a lightbulb! I'm a wizard! I'm entitled to lightbulbs that last forever! Changing lightbulbs is pathetic useless creatures like fighters, or sorcerers, or GMs.
