Review Shield Overhaul [FabricForge]

Shield Overhaul for Minecraft

The Minecraft combat system does not look as advanced as we would like. It cannot boast a wide range of techniques, so players can only be content with what they have. Thus, you can strike with a sword and block damage if you have a shield in your hands. But that is virtually all that players can do in battle. At best, you can also throw various types of potions at the enemy, if any. Not everyone appreciates such mechanics, and various mods began to appear. So if you would like to improve the in-game system of interaction with shields, we recommend you install the Shield Overhaul mod, which adds slamming, parrying, and other equally important actions to the game.

The Shield Overhaul mod updates the shield interaction mechanics by adding the possibility of not only blocking damage but also using this item to attack. In the vanilla game version, shields are not particularly popular, as their utility is doubtful, and they slow down the player greatly. But if you wish to see dynamic battles and more opportunities, Shield Overhaul is a perfect option for you. At the moment, this add-on has almost four million downloads from the official webpage, and the designers are constantly refining their development so that you can download it for your preferred game version.

The Shield Overhaul implements an improved combat system that makes use of shields in Minecraft. While previously you could only use them for protection and blocking damage, now you will also be able to inflict damage on other mobs and players with them. To clarify what innovations this mod brings to the gameplay, let us describe each of them in detail:

· Shield Slamming. The mod makes it possible to apply a dynamic attack strategy, allowing players to perform shield slamming, i.e., blocking and attacking at the same time. That is, you can hit others with a shield here, but still, you can always use it for protection. That is basically quite realistic. Such mechanics allow you to quickly reach the target by slamming it with a shield. At the same time, your opponent will be stunned, which can be used to inflict even more damage on it.

· Parrying. After you install the Shield Overhaul mod, the parrying technique will appear in the game. Whenever the player blocks an opponent's blow, that will stun it for some time. You can use this moment to deal damage.

But these are not all the features that will be available to you after installing the Shield Overhaul mod. In fact, there are many additional options in the config file, and experienced players will always find something interesting to themselves. For now, you can adjust the following parameters:

· Stunning when parrying: you can enable or disable it.

· Stun immunity.

· Recovery time after a blow or frequent clicking of the RMB with a shield equipped.

· Activation of stun immunity when attacking bosses. That is, this mechanic can be activated for players, but if desired, you can disable it for boss battles, which is very convenient.

· Instant shield blocking (available only in one of the recent versions of the Shield Overhaul mod).

As we have already noted, the designers of the Shield Overhaul mod are constantly implementing new features and trying to make a universal option that would significantly expand the potential of the Minecraft combat system. We suggest you install this add-on and see what this mod is capable of in the game, as it is difficult to show that on screenshots. Such a flexible parameter system allows you to customize the Shield Overhaul mod as you see fit, both in singleplayer mode on a usual map and on a server, if it is allowed there.

The mod's features are numerous, and it is used in many builds and on various servers. So it is a highly popular add-on you are also recommended to try if you would like to expand the list of in-game combat mechanics. The shields in Minecraft will now be more useful. Moreover, if you improve their visual side with various mods, they will become one of the most frequently applied items in the game for you, allowing you to deal damage and block it simultaneously. All that resembles gladiator fights.

It is far from the only mod that changes the combat system in Minecraft. So if you use custom add-ons, be sure to write their names in the comments so that our readers can rely on your experience and choose some interesting options for themselves. Each user has unique preferences, but the best way of selecting add-ons is to look at the comments of players who already use a particular mod and tell others about it.
