If we were being totally realistic they wouldn’t even be able to shoot you with the lightning without first creating an ionized pathway to you to prevent it just arcing straight into the ground (and most ways of doing which would probably cause serious damage to you anyways :P).

That said it could probably be a fairly simple check to see if the survivor is wearing rubber boots/gloves for some of this stuff to at least provide some sort of resistance (even if it isn’t total). I’ll look into what it would take to do.
