🤔 What is Shield Rework?
Shield Rework changes how shields behave in Minecraft. Shields now have a health bar replacing the durability bar of the item. Hitting a shield will damage its health, and break the shield when it reaches 0.
Set the gamerule shield_damage_axe_only to true to make only axes able to damage shields.
💡 Features
- Shields now have 80 hp.
- Hitting it will deal damage the same way it would to any entity.
- Certain items (axes only by default) deal more damage.
- Its health is indicated by how "shattered" its texture looks.
- Breaking a shield puts it on a 5s cooldown.
- Its health can only be regenerated once the cooldown is elapsed.
🛠️ Developers
- Items doing more damage to shields are contained in the tag
extra_shield_damage.- By default, it only contains the tag
minecraft:axes. - Items in this tag deal
4.5times more damage to shields.
- By default, it only contains the tag
- The sources will always be contained alongside the mod's
jar.
❓ Q&A
Can I use this in my modpack?
Yes.I have an issue. Where can I report it?
Issues can be reported in the help channel of the Discord.Can you port this to Forge/Neoforge/Quilt?
No. I only make mods for Fabric and won't port them for other mod loaders.If you want to make a branch of Legion for another loader, join the Discord and ask for the permission in the Help channel. It will almost always be given, but please ask first.
Can you backport the mod to version `x.xx`?
No. I make mods for the latest version of the game and will not backport them.Similarly to Question 1, if you want to make a branch of Shield Rework for another version of the game, join the Discord and ask for the permission in the Help channel. It will almost always be given, but please ask first.
