If you're trying to draw lightning to yourself for whatever reasons, there are a few methods available. Note that items will need to be on the ground to transform. If there's a thunderstorm, a Lightning Rod will periodically get struck with lightning, affecting the area around it. The static charge from a FTB Pump can build up into a lightning strike if you're willing to take some damage, possibly a lot. If you can get your hands on a Lightning Scroll, casting that will work for transforming items and charging creepers. After some progression, if needed, this can be done more easily by crafting the scroll mentioned before, or making a Lighting Glyph. Once able to enchant, another option to force strikes is to hit entities or a lightning rod with a Channeling-enchanted Trident during a thunderstorm.
