New Shield Types

New shield tiers,

So you could replace the iron in the recipe with diamond or stone/cobblestone to get more durability for the shield. 

Example. The diamond shield can block more damage and buff the old shield.

Tell me what you think about this.

    Diamond shield could be built by placing diamonds in a plus formation and then adding iron ingots in the corners.

    Here are my suggestions for tiers;

    The original: the good ol' wooden shield.

    The copper shield: to go along with the recently anounced copper equipment, if Mojang hasent implemented it already. crafted with a regular shield and copper ingot in the smithing table. no further upgrades. takes 1/2 damage

    The iron shield: crafted with a regular shield and iron ingot in the smithing table. takes 1/4 damage

    The diamond plated shield: crafted with an iron shield and diamond in the smithing table. takes 1/8 damage.

    The netherite shield: crafted with a diamond plated shield and netherite ingot in the smithing table. takes 1/16 damage. fireproof like the rest of the netherite gear set.
