Blocking



Blocking is a feature implemented in the Adventure Update. When the player holds the right mouse button while wielding a sword, they are able to block attacks, including arrows and explosions; blocked attacks deal only half damage. Blocking works with any sword, and does not decrease the sword's durability.

The player moves at a speed slower than sneaking while blocking. Sneaking and blocking while moving through web on soulsand which is placed under ice makes the player move at the slowest speed known: about 1/32 blocks a second, or 1/2 pixel a second on default texture pack resolution (16x16).

Bugs

 * You can mine blocks while blocking.
 * If you try to attack while blocking, the attack will only register when you let go of the block button.
 * If blocking while swimming, you will be able to float faster.
