epic fight shield always works

Epic Fight cancels the use of any offhand item whenever the weapon in your main hand is in a style that cannot use the offhand. That includes the two-handed style of every greatsword. This happens even after you switch Epic Fight to vanilla mode, so you cannot block with a shield while holding a greatsword.

 

Vanilla Offhand Fix runs after Epic Fight’s own handlers and reverses that cancellation, but only when:

– the player is in Epic Fight’s vanilla mode, and

– the item being used is in the offhand.

 

In battle mode nothing changes, and Epic Fight behaves exactly as before.

 

Details:

– No items, blocks, config files or commands are added.

– Requires Epic Fight. Install it on both the client and the server.

– Tested with Epic Fight 20.14.17 on Forge 1.20.1 (47.4.23).
