Shield Bash Lite

Shield Bash Lite gives the vanilla shield a small but satisfying combat upgrade: a successful perfect block can briefly stun melee attackers.

Instead of turning Minecraft combat into a completely different system, this mod keeps the vanilla shield simple and familiar. Raise your shield at the right moment, block an incoming melee hit, and the attacker is interrupted with a short stun, reduced momentum, and clean white impact particles.
Just a tighter, more rewarding shield block.

Features:

• Perfect-block timing window
• Short stun on successful shield timing
• Works with vanilla shields
• Does not trigger from ranged mobs
• Does not trigger from projectiles
• Bosses are excluded

Current balance:

• Perfect block window: 1 second
• Stun duration: 2 seconds

_Shield Bash Lite is built for players who like vanilla combat but want shields to feel a little more skill-based. It rewards timing without adding extra keybinds, new items, complex systems, or heavy combat changes.

Best used in survival, adventure maps, lightweight RPG packs, vanilla-plus packs, and combat-focused modpacks._
