Better Combat Plus
Roll during attacks, keep your offhand while two-handing, raise your shield in the recovery window.
An unofficial addon for Better Combat and Combat Roll that fixes three feel issues when both are installed. Not affiliated with, or endorsed by, their authors.
🗡️ What it fixes
| Symptom | With Better Combat Plus |
|---|---|
| Rolling does nothing during an attack | Roll any time — the swing in progress is voided but still costs one weapon cooldown |
| Two-handed weapons hide the offhand | Shield and offhand item stay visible and usable |
| No shield during the attack recovery | Right-click raises the shield in the recovery window; the windup still belongs to the attack |
⚙️ Configuration
Three switches (all on by default) under Mods → Better Combat Plus → Config. Install on both client and server. Combat Roll is optional — without it only the roll fix is disabled.
A shield is recognised by the SHIELD_BLOCK ability, ShieldItem, or the loader's shield tag, so modded shields work out of the box.
