I think that would be a funny and cool little spoof! You would think the devil-its would throw office supplies at you, until the devil-its purposely throw loot at you to mock you! But you accidentally blocked or dodged that piece of loot when you least expect them too!
I think that would be a cool feature in the game. And to make things fair, if you block that loot that the devil-it throws at you, the loot would break compared if you haven't raised your shield.
Those Devil-its are my favorite mobs in the game because they are so dang funny! Especially the manager devil-its from the urban levels.
Like it changes after they throw it, they hold up a chair and you ready your Sheild but then they throw money at you and you block it all cool idea
