The Phalanx would be an exclusive Combat Mechanic specifically for Shields and Tridents. To activate, you must hold your Trident and Shield, and then double-tap Shift. This makes it so you hold your Shield in Blocking Formation but hold your Trident out to poke any Monsters that dare Attack you, but puts you at between Walking Speed and Shifting Speed.
This would make it so you Block any Attacks while also dealing damage to anybody who tries to attack you with Melee.
You can also jab with your Trident to attack while not having a mob hit your Shield.
One could argue that everybody would just do this and it would become WAYYYY too overpowered. I came up with a counter to that.
If any Monster or Player hits you 3 Times, your Shield will be disabled for 60 Seconds so you don’t just go back into Phalanx Position, and you would have to fight as normal.
I believe this should be added because right now, the Combat is not very good. This could possibly improve Combat and have Tridents more used in the PVP Community.
Now what do you think? Should this be added? How can it be improved? Questions or concerns? Please let me know in the comments!
