Lightning Bolt power and cooldown
Lightning Bolt hits for 450 on a 20 second cooldown, which is mid-table among Electric moves, where the hardest hitter lands at 600. 20 seconds between casts puts it in the middle of a rotation rather than at the start of one.
How to get the Lightning Bolt skill fruit
Lightning Bolt has a skill fruit, so any pal can carry it whatever its own element. Fruits rotate on the blue skill fruit trees and turn up in Palworld field chests. Feeding one to an off-element pal costs you the same-type damage bonus and nothing else, so a 450-power move is still worth the slot on a pal with the attack to swing it.
Can Lightning Bolt pass to eggs
Yes. A parent that knows Lightning Bolt gives the hatchling a chance to be born with it already equipped, which is one fewer fruit and one fewer level grind. Check which half of a pair carries it before you commit them, because the breeding planner reads the moves off your save and can tell you.
Is Lightning Bolt worth using
Only until something better unlocks. 450 power is mid-table among Electric moves, and on a 20 second cooldown it is the move you run while you level toward the 600-power end of the element.
Lightning Bolt FAQ
- Which pals learn Lightning Bolt in Palworld?
- 17 of them, and the grid on this page names every one with the level it unlocks Lightning Bolt at. The earliest is Snock at level 30; Orserk gets the most out of it at 130 attack. The list is read off the game's own skill-master table.
- Can you get Lightning Bolt from a skill fruit?
- Yes. Lightning Bolt has a skill fruit, so any pal can learn it whatever its element. Fruits rotate on the skill fruit trees and turn up in field chests. Putting it on an off-element pal costs you the same-type damage bonus, not the move itself.
- How much damage does Lightning Bolt do in Palworld?
- Lightning Bolt has 450 power and a 20 second cooldown. Power gets multiplied by the pal's attack stat and the element matchup, so the same move hits far harder on Orserk at 130 attack than on anything below it.
- Is Lightning Bolt a good skill in Palworld?
- As filler. At 450 power on 20 seconds it sits mid-table among Electric moves, and Electric runs to 600, so it holds a slot until something bigger unlocks rather than earning one outright. Off-element it also loses the same-type bonus.
- Can Lightning Bolt be inherited by breeding?
- Yes. A parent that knows Lightning Bolt gives the egg a chance to hatch with the move already equipped, which saves you a fruit and a level grind. Worth checking which parent has it before you commit a pair to the breeding farm.
