How do I light (and clear) a torch in The Witcher 3?
Posted On: August 13, 2023

I'm sure that I have some torches in my inventory.


But how can I light a torch? What exactly do I have to do?


And how long does a torch "burn"?


Question from user PeterCo at stackexchange.


Answer:

From your Inventory page, you can add a torch to one of your Pockets. In game, press TAB to open your quick select, and select the torch. Press the equipment key to activate it.


I'm not sure how long they technically last, but in practice they seem to be unlimited.
