lightning is cool and all, and if it hits various thing they change - pig -> pigmen, etc
but that is so dispairingly rare the only time most of us will ever see it happen is on youtube.
so why not build a lightning generator - the tesla coil. This would charge up and throw bolts of lightning out at nearby mobs, either frying them where they stand or turning them into their alters.

No, I will not subscribe to your channel because you asked... but I might if it's *good*.
1. It will fall out of the Medieval Era.
2. Overpowered.
3. Lightning is rare for a reason.
1. FALCON SLAP!
Minecraft is NOT, repeat NOT, in the Medieval Era. It is actually very much into the modern era, possibly into the future. Steve has landed in an unknown land where all signs of civilization have been wiped clean. He needs to do what he has to do to survive and use whatever materials he knows how to use. Therefore, he knows he can make a cobblestone structure by picking away at stone and putting it together with mortar, and he also knows how to make basic weapons. He is Tom Hanks from Castaway cubed. No pun intended. He can't make a gun because he does not know how. But he can still make jukeboxes, TNT, etc.
Also, HE HAS A TSHIRT AND BLUEJEANS DANGIT! How is that medieval?!
2. Possibly.
3. This is also true.
I would like something like a Tesla coil to transmit redstone signals to eachother, and mobs that cross its path get fried.
Perhaps Tesla coils can only work during a lightning storm. And really hard to make. It could also be another way of enhancing swords. Of course, first the sword would need some sort of lightning absorption enchantment, and then you place it into the 'Tesla coil'. Lightning from the sky will strike the sword, and then your sword can do shock damage (But will not have the changing powers of lightning).
I don't 100% support this idea, but it's fun to theorize and propose.
