New New Improved shield system + improved HUD

Based on your feedback on our shield system, we’ve made a few changes for this update. Firstly, passive blocking will now split incoming damage, half will go to your shield, half will go to your health. Active blocking will pass all damage to the shield before falling back to your health.

These changes have been implemented to reduce how powerful passive blocking became over our last few updates. You now get passive gain, but much less.

We have also made some changes to the HUD on top of your character: as well as showing your health it now shows your stamina and shield as separate bars when they are below 100% full.
