We all can't wait for the new update right?Well I have an item idea that could make it even better!And it fits in with the update!So unless you randomly pick topics without looking at topics you would know that the item is the lightning rod.But what is it?How does it work?Why would we want it?And most importantly how do we craft it?Well ill go in order for you simpletons.
What is it?
Light·ning rod Noun
1. A metal rod or wire fixed to an exposed part of a building or other tall structure to divert lightning harmlessly into the ground.
How does it work?
Ahhh duh did ya read the description?It would divert lightning about to hit your precious wooden to the rod.It would also work if your holding it, but a bit different.
Why would we want it?
You just built your precious wooden house 15 floors all different and with tons of detail.And all along comes Mr. Thunder storm.Lightning hits your house and you lose 15 hours of collecting items and building the house.How could this have been fixed?Lightning Rods!A lightning Rod would take all the lightning within its 10 block radius and suck it into it harmlessly.Now sense it only sucks lightning into it from a 10 block radius you would need 2 maybe even 3 of them to protect that giant tower.But don't worry!Its just for balance.
PART 2 of PART3
Now what if your holding it?Well it works pretty much the same.But with 2 key differences.1.When holding it lightning strikes more frequently2.The lightning will choose where it will hit 1 second before it hits so you have time to escape its electrical deadliness.Lightning Spleef anyone?
How would we craft it?
A very simple recipe of 3 iron stacked on each other.

If thunder storms are introduced, then this would be a cool thing to be able to use. Of course, when lighting strikes, it shouldn't do much damage unless the house is made of flammable materials.

What did you do comment without reading the post i clearly point out it needs to be flammable to burn in Why would we want it!

Fire is put out immediately by rain, one or two block will burn at most, furthermore redstone torches would make more sense to be lightning rods as a secondary function, and when they are hit they emit a positive charge, which could result in some interesting situation depending on what it is wired to...
