Shield 'n Parry Mod

This mod makes combat require a higher amount of skill while still letting new pvp-ers have a chance. Learn to parry attacks, bash with your shield, and reflect projectiles.

So, What's Actually New?

1. Weapon Parrying

Press R (configurable) with a weapon just before an attack hits you.

  • Perfect timing blocks damage and staggers the attacker
  • Weapon matters: Faster weapons = tighter timing windows, faster cooldown recharge
  • Feels badass: Screen effects, sounds, and knockback when you nail it
  • Fail? You get slowed down briefly. Practice makes perfect.

Example of Parrying

2. Shield Bashing

Hold block with a shield, then press the parry key.

  • Charge forward and knock enemies back
  • Applies slowness to anything you hit
  • Works with any shield (vanilla or modded)

Example of Shield Bashing

3. Projectile Reflection

Time a parry right as an arrow or fireball reaches you.

  • Deflects it back at the shooter
  • Gains extra power on the return trip
  • Works with most modded projectiles automatically
  • Extremely satisfying (and extremely hard) when you reflect a skeleton's own arrows

Example of Arrow Parrying

AND YES YOU CAN PARRY FALL DAMAGE!!!

Example of Parrying Fall Damage

Extra Stuff & Compatibility

  • Three new enchantments:
    • Parry Recovery (less cooldown)
    • Parry Window (easier timing)
    • Guarding Lunge (stronger bashes)
  • Special compatibility with CombatRoll mod: Successful parries refill your dodge charges
  • Fully configurable: Turn features on/off, blacklist certain attacks
  • No performance hit: Efficient code that doesn't lag your game
  • COMPLETELY INCOMPATIBLE FUNCTIONALLY with Tactical Shield Overhaul!!!

You are allowed to use this in modpacks, make videos about it, or add any new compat addons to it.
