Shield Expansion Expansion
by dixta1
With Shield Expansion Expansion installed on top of Shield Expansion, shields gain two new material tiers that players can craft and use.
What it does
Two new shield types join the material tier system of Shield Expansion. One is a Tower Shield, a heavier version of the regular shield, and the other is a second variant with its own stats. Both are meant to be used alongside dixta's Armory, and the author describes the mod as an addon for that combination.
Its shields trade weight for defence, with a wider parrying window, more stamina and greater blast resistance. Walking while blocking is quicker, parries hit harder and the cooldown after one is shorter. The mod is published for Forge only, across 1.18.2, 1.19, 1.19.1, 1.19.2 and 1.20.1, and the latest file is 1.1.1-1.20.1 for 1.20.1, published 2024-07-24. It is client and server, so the server and every player need it, and it requires Shield Expansion. The code is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved.
The author notes that the mod is only available for Forge and that a Fabric port depends on demand. Modpack use is allowed by the author.
Key features
Two new shield types
Adds two shield types at new material tiers, extending the shield options that Shield Expansion provides.
Tower Shield variant
Includes a heavier shield variant that is more durable in exchange for speed, a trade-off against regular shields.
Parrying and blocking stats
Shields gain a wider parrying window, extra stamina and blast resistance, quicker movement while blocking, and a shorter cooldown after a parry.
Parry damage
Parrying deals higher damage than with regular shields, so a well-timed block counts for more in combat.
