I want to learn lightning as I believe it to be one of if not the most destructive element,I want to have the power to wield lightning and destroy my oponnents in a "shocking" way
Now tell me what you know of the lightning element. Tell me about it's properties, how it differs to other elements and it relation to the other elements (Strengths/weakness and if you know why).
As you said lightning is one of the 5 basic elements,it is strong against earth as it easily rips through it with high speed and it is weak against wind as it isolates the electricity.
A quite handy use of lightning is the combination of it and a sword,by sending your chakra into your weapon it shares the lightning affix and increases the weapons strength and sharpness
None of the lightning jutsu move as fast as natural lightning.
It is a mainly offensive element but it can also be used as defense by masterfull raiton users such as Ay
Very good answer, I'll let you know that lightning increased the cutting power of weapons (and there speed if you throw them) by increasing the frequency of vibrations of the weapon, making it akin to a really fast buzz saw.
Since water is a conductor for electricity it can be used to increase the damage of lightning while fire can be shot up to the sky to create natural lightning as was shown by Sasuke
Scoop up some water in your hands, and bring hold on to it.
*Walks up to you and places my finger in small amount of water you are holding. I then release a small jolt of lightning into the water.*
What did you feel? notice how you felt the shock throughout your entire hand? What does this tell you about the nature of lightning and what you must do to control it?
First off that was a **** move sensei as I almost pee'd myself sensei but to the point at hand it tells me that lightning is very dangerous when in the hands of someone who mastered it like yourself as even such little friction shocked me for my arms to go a little numb.So if used properly and on a higher scale and with precision it could end battles in minutes.The one thing I like about lightning is even tho as I mentiond it can be used at a pin-point target and controlled as to how much damage it will do it can also be used to create a chaos and destroy anything in my path so making it the most destructive element for me.To control it my guess would be that it had to be used proportionatly, unlike suiton which is used in wide range attacks lightning should rather be concentrated at one point for maximum effectivness thus also not using the extra unneeded chakra.
Excellent response. So the main point we can take away from that is; Lightning is a dangerous element that requires you to contain and direct it with your chakra and will. Letting go if this control and you could be the target of your own attack.
This, is what you must remember when using your lightning chakra.
Channel your lightning chakra into your hands and then focus it to shape small bolts of lightning that you'll shoot at that tree.
This is the first use of lightning, bolts. Most jutsu will be based of bolts, we'll talk more about the use/form as we cover them.
I beggin channeling my chakra through my palms and as it begins surfacing I use shape manipulation and create a lightning bolt.I then throw the bolt into a tree as it rips right through it and goes straight for the sensei O_O
*Seeing a bolt of lightning rip right through the tree and continue straight towards me, I clap my hands together in front of me that sends out a pressure wave of wind outwards in front of me. The wind dissipates your lightning bolt and also knocks you over backwards.*
Jutsu I used:
(Fลซton: Reppลซshล) - Wind Release: Gale Palm
Rank: C
Type:Attack/Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: A simple technique that when the users hands are clapped together, wind is compressed and transformed into a powerful gale. This technique, when used as an isolated attack has the power to easily knock over a human. Though the true value comes from using it together with projectile weapons like shuriken or kunai. Their speed, power, and ability to wound or even kill are all increased several times.
O__O Sorry, it was an over-reaction...

Now, lightning stream. This are chaotic looking and look like a ripple of lightning intertwining with itself as it travels either through the air or over the ground.
Charge some lightning in your hand and then slam it on the ground, sending a small stream of lightning crackling across the ground towards that rock, destroying it.
I begin to channel chakra in my palm again creating alot of sparks making it look unstable.I slam my hand into the ground and the stream of lightning travels through the ground straight for the rock and as it reaches it it destroys it into little pieces

I want you to now surge your lightning chakra all through your body, releasing it to create a spherical shield around you. Be careful though as it only lasts for one hit but it will shock an opponent on contact.
Then, I want you to surge more chakra into the electric shield, overloading it so that it explodes, blowing back anything nearby.
I beging to channel my lightning chakra thoughout all of my body,imaginening the shape of a spherical shield I release it and it begins to cover my body.
After it is completley over my body its time for the second task.
I begin to push out more and more chakra overloading the shield and causing it to blow up and the sensei goes flying

Now place your hand on the ground, and release a wave of powerful lightning over it, sending it at my clone to shock him.
I place my hands on the ground and begin channeling my chakra through it causing waves of lightning to rage over the ground going straight to my senseis clone making him go "poof"
If I used this over water it would go all over the place.As I said considering water is a natural conductor for electricity it would ampliffy the strength of the attack but it would be harder to control and in the end might backfire and hurt me if im not carefull
Excellent answer, as you can see in the jutsu description, adding water to the technique increases the damage by 5.

Create a ball of lightning within your hands, you Pikachu, making it about the size of a basketball. Use your lightning chakra to keep the lightning contained within the ball, then fire it off at my clone.
I begin channeling chakra through both of my hands and as it begins to colide with each other in the center distance of my two hands I use shape manipulation to create a ball of lightning and as I continue pushing in more chakra it gets bigger and bigger until its the size of a basketball.As the outer field of the ball is strengthend by my chakra the inside is filled with rageing lightning chakra.It looks like an aquarium with lightning instead of goldfish U_U
*And you shoot it at my clone, dealing some damage, shocking him and causing him to disperse into a cloud of smoke.*

Also not, it is only good for one hit and does not give you a speed boost.
