Hi again!

I know there are several scripts covering this, but I'm all for diversity. :D

The script will allow your weapons, armours and states to have mana shield capability.

New in V1.1:

I removed the shield types and replaced their functions with several notetags. You can now have a mana shield with 20% split, 30% absorb and 50% replenish if you want.

This enables you to have more flexible mana shields and it enables me to add new tags easier.

You may use these notetags:

<absorb_damage: x%> or optional <absorb_damage_x: y%>

Will reduce incoming damage by x%.

The optional version will allow you to reduce x (= HP or MP) damage only.

<reduce_damage: x> or optional <reduce_damage_x: y>
Will reduce incoming damage by x.
The optional version will allow you to reduce x (= HP or MP) damage only.

<split_damage: x%>
Will split incoming damage by x% between HP and MP.

<replenish_x: y%>
Will replenish x by y% of the damage.
Replace x with either HP or MP.

<ignore_damage: y%> or optional <ignore_damage_x: y%>

Will ignore (nullify) all the damage with a probability of y%
The optional version will allow you to nullify x (= HP or MP) damage only.
Instructions:

Place this script below most of your other scripts. I mostly only use Yanfly Scripts so there MAY be compatibility issues with other scripts which modify the same methods.

Screenshot:

This shield will absorb 40% of HP damage, split the damage between HP and MP and has a 10% chance of ignoring the damage altogether.

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
time for a new avatar :)
