Greetings, @Pashtetuser; I hope you’re doing well, and welcome to the UE community! I agree entirely with @for6won; you can definitely feel the destruction from your realistic lightning animation; I had quite the chuckle when I saw our main protagonist get struck after performing their victory dance; that was hilarious. :rofl:

Hi there @Pashtetuser,

Hope you’re well!

The slowmo makes the lightning effect it especially impressive. Getting to see how the light almost encompasses each piece of the sculpture is simply: awesome!

Thanks for sharing :slight_smile:

Greetings @Pashtetuser !

Your Realistic Lightning is awe-inspiring! I appreciate the different angles and camera speeds displayed of the phenomena. It amplifies the effect of the force.

There’s always something powerful in the ability to bring down veins of destructible light! Raiden, Shango, Zeus, Thor and other gods of lightning approve! :zap: :zap: :zap: Congratulations on completing your first challenge!
