Metallurgy/Conduction Shamir

This module is currently unreleased to the public.

The Conduction Shamir allows players to strike nearby entities with lightning.

Details

Conduction is a shamir which will summon lightning at the position of entities around you. For details on how to create a cast with metal band, see the Metallurgy page. The Shamir is found on a Thorium band, and can be placed onto iron tools. For details on adding a Shamir to an item, see the Metallurgy page.

Usage

If a player holds a conduction tool in their hand, it will start to gather energy. After about 16 seconds, a lightning bolt icon will appear on the screen, indicating that lightning is ready to strike. While the lightning bolt icon is on the player's screen, lightning will be summoned at random intervals in an 8-block radius around the player, striking nearby mobs, including players.

Lightning will strike even if there is a block overhead. Movement, whether running, walking, or flying, has no effect on the charge time for Conduction.

Cooldown

The Conduction tool must be recharged for about 16 seconds after each use.

Limitations

The player using the conduction tool may be struck if no other entity is nearby. Items, minecarts, and boats will not be targeted by conduction, though they can be broken or destroyed by it if it affects another entity near to it. Armor stands will not be broken by lightning that hits them, though they can be broken by the resulting fire.
