EntityPreDamageEvent

[Clexus]

Is your feature request related to a problem?

For example, I want to swap the totem in player's inventory to their hand before they get damaged so the totem can take effect as expect, or take off all player's equipment before they get attacked so the armor won't have any effect.

Describe the solution you'd like.

Isn't this just the PrePlayerAttackEntityEvent? Though the first example you gave would be fine in the EntityDamageEvent, the second one is a bit trickier because attribute modifiers won't be recalculated until the next tick, and Paper doesn't expose something like the internal LivingEntity#detectEquipmentUpdates to force it. Other than that, the pre-attack event should suffice

PrePlayerAttackEntityEvent only get called when player attack entity with item on hand, that can't cover all the damage logics
