OVERVIEW
Ever start an attack and instantly realize it was a bad idea? Now you can change your mind mid-swing.
This plugin lets you cancel melee attacks by pressing block - perfect for when a power attack turns into a panic move.
HOW
If you're in the middle of an attack and press your Block key (right-click or gamepad equivalent) or your Ready Weapon key (R or the gamepad equivalent), the mod will stop the attack animation and, if you're holding a shield or a 1H/2H weapon, immediately transition you into a block stance.
