ITEMS

MACE
- A new heavy weapon to smash your enemies!
- Leverage the weight of this new weapon to deal additional damage the farther you fall before hitting your target

Mace Weapon in Minecraft Snapshot?
The Mace Weapon in Minecraft Snapshot is part of the new patch 24w11a. This weapon can be crafted by combining the breeze rod and Heavy core materials from the trial chambers.
This is a heavy melee weapon that the player can hold in their hands and fight the enemies. To hit them correctly players need to fall downward and hit the target before they fall and if the hit is precise on the enemy then players will be negated from any sort of damage they incur just like the wind charge mechanism.
This weapon can also be combined with a wind charge mechanism to give a striking attack on the enemies. Like every weapon, using this regularly can damage it, to increase its durability and working condition, players can repair it at the anvil using breeze rods.
