ShieldsUp

The block chance formula is changed. Hold LMB to raise shield (active block)

Shield Block

Shield Block Chance = Base Stamina Ratio Angle Ratio - Attack Ratio

Base = Block Skill/2 + Agility/5 + Luck/10

125% if the Block perk is taken

+50 or 100 with the Block perk - only for a player in active block mode (hold swing)

+ 100 - for everyone except the player

Stamina coefficient is a linear interpolation from 30% (or 60% with the Block perk) to 100% depending on % stamina

Angle coefficient = 1 - gaze deviation to the attacker / maximum angle

150% if Block's signature perk is taken

The angle factor cannot be lower than 0 or higher than 1.

Max Right Side Angle = 20 (or 30 for active lock mode)

Max left side angle = 60 (or 30 for active lock mode)

Max angle is multiplied by 150% if Block's signature perk is taken

In simple words. Want to successfully block? So take the trouble to turn to the enemy with a shield, and not with an ass.

Attack Ratio = Weapon Skill/2 + Agility/5 + Luck/10

(100% or 125% with Agility perk) + 100% - % Attack Swing

Heavy attacks are slower and easier to block than fast attacks.

Blocking with a shield costs stamina equal to GMST coefficient + Additional coefficient

GMST coefficient = 5 + % encumbrance 10 + enemy weapon weight 2

Additional coefficient = Shield weight

50% - Block Skill 20% (or 40% with the Block perk) (Coefficient cannot be lower than 10%)

Arrow block

Now has a chance to block arrows, bolts and projectiles,reducing their damage to zero. Such blocking is possible only if the projectile flies to the target at an angle from -90 degrees to 0 degrees (with the shield down) or from -45 to +45 degrees (with active blocking). For NPCs, the angle is always considered as when blocking is active.

Projectile Block Chance = Skill + Agility/5 + Luck/10

% stamina

1. 5 - if the Block perk is taken

0. 3 - only if there is no active ban (this penalty only affects the player)

– Attacker Accuracy / 2

– Attacker Agility / 5

That is, at full stamina at 100 total, while holding anactive block, you have a 195% chance to block the projectile. If the shooter is

with 50 stats, then this chance will decrease by 35%.

Successfully blocking a projectile triggers the Block skill increase. The shield loses durability in the amount of 50% of the damage.

For this mod, consider that all the mentioned perks are taken
