While working on a PvP colosseum style plugin, I realized there were a few more fighting facets that I wanted to add. This was the result. It is a continuation of my original DynamicFight plugin (I am the original author) but I did a full code rewrite and decided to start the whole thing fresh.

Features:

Random, double-damage critical-hits for mobs and/or players that can stun the opponent.
NEW Stun blinds, confuses, and slows a player and freezes a mob in its tracks.
Sneaking with a configurable (NEW) shield item shields you from enemy attacks.
Sneaking with a (configurable) weapon in hand and a shield in your inventory will swap them for quick fighting. (Gladiator Mode)
Shields have a possibility of being broken and knocked out of a player's hand.
All features and percentages are configurable.

Permissions

DF.gladiator ~ Allows a player to quickly swap between sword and shield.
DF.shield ~ Allows a player to use an iron/wood door as a shield.
DF.critical ~ Allows a player to score critical hits.

Configuration

Visit the Configuration page for a detailed breakdown of the config.yml.
