The Minecraft Lightning Rod is a special tool used to draw thunder from the area around it. That doesn't mean it actually spawns in storms, but if lightning comes down anywhere nearby, it'll hit the Rod rather than anything else.
This can serve all sorts of functions in Minecraft - productive, defensive and offensive alike, if you know how to use it creatively. Sick of your Minecraft house getting obliterated by inclement weather? Want to oxidize copper? Want to call down a bolt of electricity on a specific location? You can do all that and more - and below, we'll show you how to craft the Minecraft Lightning Rod that does it.
