Are there any built in lightning bolt effects?

[GModKitty]

I was wondering if there were any built in lightning effects that could span from one point to another, so I could make the start point of the bolt (1, 1, 1), and the end point (100, 100, 100)?

Because 3d geometry is really hard.

Nothing built in.

Something like this requires a mesh to be built and then rendered in a custom effect.

Why use a mesh when render.DrawBeam works perfectly fine for lighting effects?
