Passive Shield

Passive Shield is a configurable mod which makes some changes to the shield mechanics. When a shield is held in the offhand and not in use, it will not be rendered. Whenever the player right-clicks to raise the shield, it will be shown again. When the shield is not raised, it will still negate some damage. By default 33% extra negation, but this can be changed in the config file.

The shield provides the same passive protection when held idle in the main hand.

   All available config options:

The shield is hidden when held in the offhand until raised:

The default damage without a shield:

 

The shield passively negating damage when not raised in the offhand:

The shield passively negating damage when not raised in the mainhand:
