Talk:Blocking

Do we need to bold every instance of the word "blocking?" If this is some convention feel free to correct me, but as it is, it makes it look a bit over-formatted imo. Cleverlynamed1 20:30, 14 September 2011 (UTC)

Blocking gives half damage.
I have just tested this with zombies, spiders and skeletons and I have found this to be true. I take ~1 heart from zombies, half a heart from spiders and 1 heart from skeleton arrows. I cannot cite this, but I can confirm it. The only thing I have not yet tested is a creeper blast. Can we remove ? Cleverlynamed1 18:02, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

Merge with Sword article
We should merge this with the sword article. There isn't a "dispensing" article for the dispenser, so why not merge them? It's awkward to have a semi-explanation of blocking in the sword article so lets just move it

Blocking
Is this the official name of this feature? Blocking isn't really a thing you can do with a sword.
