A lightning rod is an artifact that can be found within the various missions of Minecraft Dungeons. It requires souls to activate and strikes mobs with powerful bolts of lightning.
Listed difficulties are considered to be the minimum difficulty the item is obtainable on unless stated otherwise.
The Lightning Rod summons a lightning bolt that strikes a targeted mob or location after a short delay, dealing high area damage to nearby enemies. It does not harm heroes or summoned pets. It has a 2-second cooldown, grants +1 soul gathering, and requires 15 souls to activate.
Its damage scales with item power and can be increased by effects that boost artifact damage. Armor such as the Souldancer Robe, Splendid Robe, and Cave Crawler can increase damage by up to 50%, while the Lightning Focus enchantment can increase it by up to 75%.
The Soul Focus enchantment does not affect the Lightning Rodβs damage.
