Arm guard

The arm guard would be a new piece of armor very similar to the ones piglet brutes have to get an arm guard you have to craft it you can only craft it out of iron gold diamonds or netherite also with a little bit of leather you can use them for both arms but you cannot use one of them for a shield that means you have to use one hand for the shield and the other one for your arm guard but the arm guard would do protection but you can also use it to block you wouldn't be able to block all the damage though so it wouldn't outsource Shields it will just be used as a quick defense so it would not soak up all the damage but it will absorb some of it it would be like blocking off the sword in old Minecraft tell me what you think
