This mod allows shields to be enchanted with Thorns.
Thorns on shields will activate while blocking or while held in hand, but only if the attacker hits the shields hitbox. Additionally, hitting the shield while not blocked will still damage the player and apply less damage to the attacker. More details can be found in tables below
Thorns Damage Chance while Blocking:
| Thorns Level | Chance | Damage |
|---|---|---|
| Thorns I | 50% | 2 Damage (1 Heart) |
| Thorns II | 75% | 4 Damage (2 Hearts) |
| Thorns III | 100% | 6 Damage (3 Hearts) |
Passive Thorns Damage Chance (Held in hand):
| Thorns Level | Chance | Damage |
|---|---|---|
| Thorns I | 15% | 1-5 Damage (0.5-2.5 Hearts) |
| Thorns II | 30% | 1-5 Damage (0.5-2.5 Hearts) |
| Thorns III | 45% | 1-5 Damage (0.5-2.5 Hearts) |
Notes
- Support for Minecraft versions below 26.1 will be added soon.
- Support for Quilt, Forge and NeoForge will be added soon.
- To be able to enchant shields with Thorns, the client must have the mod installed too. The Thorns effect on shields with Thorns is completely server-side. (meaning the mod technically is not required on the client but strongly recommended)
