So, instead of madly swinging a sword up and down, he wants actual swordfighting.

no, weapons of all kinds still did damage, however, the damage was lowered.

For my v8 Sword and Shield, it protected against all non-radius damage, but only to that very specific area of your body. (left torso)

I must have not downloaded yours then...

Blocking all damage isn't something to cause imbalance, as there could be some downsides to it.
Taking half damage if you're moving.
Delay between blocking periods.

However, I prefer the first one.

If this doesn't get done by Friday (by someone else) I could work on it.
