Which pals learn Lightning Strike in Palworld?

12 of them, and the grid on this page names every one with the level it unlocks Lightning Strike at. Orserk is both the earliest, at level 7, and the Electric learner with the most attack behind it at 130. The list is read off the game's own skill-master table.

Can you get Lightning Strike from a skill fruit?

Yes. Lightning Strike 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 Strike do in Palworld?

Lightning Strike has 300 power and a 16 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 Strike a good skill in Palworld?

As filler. At 300 power on 16 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 Strike be inherited by breeding?

Yes. A parent that knows Lightning Strike 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.

Lightning Strike power and cooldown

Lightning Strike hits for 300 on a 16 second cooldown, which is mid-table among Electric moves, where the hardest hitter lands at 600. 16 seconds between casts puts it in the middle of a rotation rather than at the start of one.

How to get the Lightning Strike skill fruit

Lightning Strike 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 300-power move is still worth the slot on a pal with the attack to swing it.

Can Lightning Strike pass to eggs

Yes. A parent that knows Lightning Strike 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 Strike worth using

Only until something better unlocks. 300 power is mid-table among Electric moves, and on a 16 second cooldown it is the move you run while you level toward the 600-power end of the element.
