Now, im only in 1.8.1 and im not going play 1.9 pre release after the 1.8 pre release, so im not sure about if blocking actually works yet, but still.
Whenever blocking is fixed... or actual when it does something because it NEVER worked... there should be a shield. There isnt a duel wielding option, but i think there could be wood, stone, iron, gold, and diamond shields. Just like swords. If you have one in the hotbar, the bar at the bottom of the screen which shows which items are equipped; When you block, the shield will block instead. For the most part, shields are more effient at blocking then swords. This is how i think it will be:
Blocking ability to least to greatest (Worst blocking ability to best blocking ability)
Wood Sword > Gold Sword > Wood Shield > Gold Shield > Stone Sword > Iron Sword > Stone Shield > Iron Shield > Diamond Sword > Diamond Shield
I put gold so low because im pretty sure its worse then stone...
Anyway? Should this be implemented? Vote in the poll and post below!
