[WIP] shield/blocking rework

Rob Nelson requested to merge pull/8575/shields into Bleeding-Edge

Created by: unid15

  • Swords only block melee attacks now. Eswords still block bullets. All shields block both melee attacks and projectiles
  • Facing your attacker increases your chance to block his attacks by flat 30%. Facing away from your attacker decreases your chance to block his attacks by flat 30%.

The chance modifiers go like this: +30% (from the front) / +10% / +-0% (from the side) / -10% / -30% (from behind)

  • List of items that can be used for blocking + their efficiency
  • Shields (100%)
    • Bucklers (33.3%)
  • Dual eswords (100%)
  • HF Katanas, eswords (80%)
  • Claymores, katanas (70%)
  • Forged swords (50%)
  • The final block chance (after direction modifier) is multiplied by that percentage
  • Also swords and shields (no eswords unfortunately) now play a sound when blocking an attack
