Throwing a lightning rod on the ground will initiate a countdown of approximately 3 seconds. The time until the rod attracts lightning is displayed above it, and particles are emitted from the rod. During this time, the rod can be picked up again to cancel the countdown. Once the countdown has reached zero, a bolt of lightning is summoned at it's location and the item is destroyed. [[File:Invalid lightning rod.png|thumb|379x379px|Multiple lightning rods in a stack will not strike lightning]]If there is more than one item in a stack of lightning rods, an error will be displayed above the lightning rod and the countdown will not initiate. This means dying with multiple lightning rods in your inventory will not destroy all the items, but dying with a single lightning rod in your inventory will.
