About this Mod
Fix Shield is a tiny tech mod that fixes one of the most annoying mechanics in Minecraft's combat system. In vanilla, after pressing right-click, the shield takes a quarter of a second to actually begin reducing damage. This often results in getting hit even when used in a timely manner. Fixed an issue where the shield would not provide instant protection.
