About this project

What does Hoplite: Spear And Shield add?

Description

Spear and Shield lets you fight like a hoplite: a spear in one hand, a shield in the other.

How it works

Spears stay two-handed by default.
Put a shield in your off-hand and the spear in your main hand automatically switches to a one-handed version. Take the shield away and it switches back.
Throwing still works in both modes (hold attack to charge).
Durability is kept every time the spear switches.
With a shield, the spear gets proper one-handed animations: it's held upright while you walk, run and jump, and you attack with a quick one-handed thrust.

Compatibility

Works on its own with the base game spears.
Works great together with Zapp's Better Spears, which makes spears craftable in survival. Spear and Shield picks up Zapp's stats and abilities automatically.
All 17 spears from the base game are supported. Spears added by other mods are left untouched.
Any shield works.
