    I just logged in and less than 5 minutes I was killed by lightning twice. What is going on? Why would anyone think this is a fun game mechanic. If you don’t want people to enjoy the game then keep adding frustrating elements like this

    @the-frak where you holding your sword ?

    Then thats your issue right there, swords boost the chance of getting struck AND increase the damage from lightning extremely

    It's pretty much like in Zelda Breath of the Wild, if you're holding a mainly metal object i.e. your sword, lightning will directly target you. If you put your weapons/items away, you'll be (mostly) safe again. Thus, if you're in a storm, don't pull out your sword if you don't have to and put your sword/items away as soon as you're done using them.
