Energy management is crucial in Disney Dreamlight Valley. Every action, from digging to fishing, drains your energy, leaving you unable to progress if you run out. Replenishing energy is simple with meals, and the Lightning Bolt is one of the best options for a significant energy boost.
While the Lightning Bolt recipe isn't the easiest to complete due to its rare ingredients, this guide will show you how to obtain everything you need.
Lightning Bolt Recipe in Disney Dreamlight Valley
To craft a Lightning Bolt, you'll need:
- One Stygian Mudskipper
- One Lamprey
- Two Lightning Spice
- One Sweet Ingredient
Acquiring the Stygian Mudskipper
The Stygian Mudskipper is found in the Mythopia biome within Storybook Vale. Unlocking Mythopia requires 2,000 Story Magic. Once unlocked, look for the telltale golden ripples in the water. Remember, it's a rare fish, so be patient!
Catching the Lamprey
The Lamprey resides in the Everafter biome, requiring 2,000 Story Magic to unlock via Merida's quest. Look for those golden ripples in the water—it’s another rare catch, so be prepared for some fishing!
Harvesting Lightning Spice
Lightning Spice is also located in Mythopia. After catching your Stygian Mudskipper, keep an eye out for this ingredient scattered on the ground. Each harvest yields one spice, and you’ll need two for the recipe.
Choosing Your Sweet Ingredient
For the final ingredient, select one of the following sweets:
- Agave
- Pink Marshmallow
- Blue Marshmallow
- Vanilla
- Sugarcane
- Cocoa Bean
Once you've gathered all five ingredients (plus a piece of coal for cooking, easily mined in any biome), head to a cooking station. Combine them all to create your Lightning Bolt!
This delicious dish sells for a hefty 5,038 Star Coins at Goofy's Stall, or you can consume it for a massive 5,000 energy boost.
