So when I'm on my any server, whenever a person is blocking their shield and I try to hit them with a sword or a bow. There shield goes down visually, even though they're still actually blocking on there screen. As well when I hit them they don't take any damage like the shield would normally do.

Note: Forgot to show it in the clip but It's not because of my resource pack, It has happened without it as well.
Environment
Shouldn't matter because its happening to all people on servers, and they have all varying operating systems and java versions. But I have Windows 10 Creators Update and Java 8 Update 111.

In that case, does this duplicate MC-5368?
This is caused because the item is losing durability. When ever the selected item changes, such as switching to a different item, changing it's nbt data, or changing the data/damage value, Minecraft will run the raising-an-item animation you see when switching items. You should update this report to the issue that damaging tools plays the animation. Also, the reason people don't take damage while blocking is because that was added as a feature.
