π About
Guarding is a simple fabric mod that expands upon the Shield, featuring new mechanics and unique enchantments! Most features in this mod are also highly configurable!
βFeatures
- Parrying! Time your blocks just right and perform a parry, pushing back enemies.
- Pummeling, a new enchantment that increases parry knockback.
- Barbed, a new enchantment which applies thorns onto your shield.
- The Netherite Shield! A tough shield that's more durable, fire resistant, and grants some knockback resistance.
- Shield Trims! The Netherite Shield utilizes armor trims, instead of banners for cosmetics.
- Instantaneous Blocking! Shields will now block quicker, similar to the Combat Test snapshots.
