The **Lightning Rod** is a piece of equipment in Dicey Dungeons that does damage based on the amount of damage the player has taken during the fight.

Once the Lightning Rod is used, the damage charged is set to zero, so the user must take damage again in order to charge it.

On versions 2.1 and later, using this equipment with [[statuses:Fury]] active applies the damage each time the action is repeated and then discharges the equipment. Before that version, only the first use of Lightning Rod would deal damage; the rest would deal 0 damage.
