New Enchantment: Parrying

Avaible for Swords and Tridents, is mutually exclusive with Sweeping Edge, Knockback, Loyalty and Channeling

Has only one level

When applied, gives the ability to block melee damage for Swords and Tridents. While holding right-click, the sword/trident would go in a guarding position: during this time, all damage dealt by melee weapons will be blocked, damaging the weapons in the process; blasts, projectiles and potion won't be blocked at all

Unlike the shield, the player won't be slowed down,

    I like this idea, except for its application to tridents. This enchantment would take away your ability to throw a trident. Maybe it should apply to just swords, and possibly axes in a future combat update. I also think it should be called just “Parry.”

    I agree completely with the previous person who commented, and I also think maybe it should have 2 levels, the first one blocking damage and the second one bouncing 50% of it back. I also think you shouldn't be able to attack while in guard mode.
