Don't forget to reply...

Because you would never pay guild wage for something as inefficient as a 10th level wizard when something as powerful as a 5th level kobold shaman can be hired for 90% less.

Beat me to it.

Considering a bolt of lightning lasts for microseconds and only generates about 5 gigajoules, it is nearly impossible to capture the energy in anything more than a lightshow.

[Tolpan]

Infinity power with a electric Wizard. But it's possible to pay the wizard for his/her lifetime duty?

[radule]

Over 9000 GigaWatts!

[ForumQua]

Boom

[JonD]

A shocking amount....

[Jerevth]

A Blue Dragonborn provides around 6 terrorwatts.
A wizzi with a PM splash can generate about 8 skelewatts.
A dwarben Wizzle can generate 3-8 kegawatts

But if there are monks around, there'll be resistance.

Just a few millivolts if he rubbed his cloak and robes together really really fast!

The human body generates more bio electricity than a 120 volt battery and over 25000 BTUs of body heat. Combined with a form of fusion the warforged had found all the energy they would ever need.

[Meugh]

Fester, from the Adams Family, must be at least level 30 (how else to explain his and Cousin It's intelligence levels), yet he can only light up a 60 watt bulb dimly, assuming 30 watts of power total. Thusly a level 10 wizard can only provide 10 watts but only if he knows what he is doing. Given that we now have LED lamps that 8.5 - 10 watts rating provide 600 lumens (about what a 60 watt incandescent lamp provided), it will appear to the untrained, that he can out perform the level 30 wizard of old, providing the uninitiated the idea that wizards in the last 55 years have become 3 times more powerful.

I don't know, but I heard it's enough to power all those electric kettles for tea time.

[MasterofDungeons]

They just need to use the empower feat...

[chaosmanager]

Is anyone else having trouble with the code for this week? My brother and I both get invalid code messages when we type it in as shown in the OP.

As for the weekly question: Who needs a mage to generate electricity? Hook Boo up in a hamster cage and put a carrot in front of him and watch him run! Oh, wait. If we did that, wouldn't the server farm go down? We wouldn't want that.

[Sebastrd]

Enough to power a potato clock.

But could he run 88 mph with a coat hanger in his wizzy hat?

[Yamani]

None, they are too busy studying magic to waste time powering a power grid.
