Sword Blocking Revived

Minecraft 版本： 1.21.11 26.1 26.1.1

平台： datapack

标签： game-mechanics social utility

A datapack that adds sword blocking from versions prior to 1.9 back into the game

perfect if you're feeling nostalgic, want to signal peace or say hello!

How it works:

holding right click with the sword will allow the player to block 50% of incoming damage, without consuming durability or being disabled by shields

KNOWN ISSUES:

• holding a shield in the off-hand slot will still prioritise the sword, because of how Minecraft is coded
• only works on swords CRAFTED after the datapack was installed
• once uninstalled, swords that have the ability to block will still keep it
• when installing the datapack, it might say that the version is incompatible, even if you are on 1.21.11 (ignore it)
