A Minecraft player created four shield concepts and shared their ideas with the community. Minecraft is a popular game for exploration and exciting combat. To survive mobs, which can be quite strong, players have different weapons and gear at their disposal.
At the start of the game, the axe is a highly useful tool for Minecraft players to obtain wood, and it can be improvised as a weapon in the event of an unexpected encounter with a spider or even a Creeper. When Minecraft players find diamonds, one of the first things many do is craft a chestplate, protecting the upper part of their character. Recently, a member of the Minecraft community showed what it would be like if the game had more kinds of gear for players to use in their adventures.

A creative Minecraft player makes an impressive shader pack, and shows how it turns Mojang’s sandbox into a nostalgic experience.
On the Minecraft subreddit, user Diamond_JMS shared their concepts for four types of shields. The first is a buckler, a shield that does not slow down the player and blocks half of melee damage, but does not prevent them from being hit by projectiles. The wooden shield, on the other hand, is ideal for Minecraft‘s early game because it is inexpensive and still prevents half of all physical damage. The iron shield is largely the same as the shield in the base game, but using it to parry an imminent attack knocks back the attacker and stuns their weapon. Suitable for the late game, the Netherite shield has greater durability, fire resistance, and uses trims instead of banners.
Minecraft Player Shows What it Would be Like if the Game Had More Types of Shields
In addition to showcasing their shield concepts, the OP gave ideas for four new types of Minecraft enchantments. Pummeling adds an extra knockback to parrying, while Reflection makes the player able to throw projectiles in the direction they were shot from. Stun makes a weapon’s stun time longer; if the attacker is a mob, it stuns itself and temporarily forgets about the player. Finally, with the Respite enchantment, successfully parrying recovers a small amount of health.
Minecraft players reacted to the post with over 5,400 upvotes and 118 comments, leaving their thoughts on the concepts. One Redditor suggested another type of enchantment that would negate knock back while defending. Others think that replacing Minecraft‘s banner patterns with armor trims would make Netherite shields less interesting. Mojang does not indicate it has any plans to introduce new shields, but with Minecraft receiving frequent updates, players wait to see if new equipment will be added in future patches.
