What is Mace in Minecraft & what does it do?

A Mace is a brand new tool that’s currently available to use in Snapshot & Beta preview testing for Minecraft. It resembles a big hammer and can be used to attack enemies as well as negate fall damage.

If you use the Mace’s smash attack when falling you’ll create a knockback effect and the longer you fall the harder the hit will be on enemies. Fall damage will only be negated if you successfully land the hit however so you’ll have to be mindful of this when planning to use the smash attack. Any other enemies near the one you strike will be knocked back by the Mace’s force.

You can also combine the Mace’s attack with a Wind Charge to launch into the air and use even more powerful smashes.

How to craft Mace in Minecraft

You can craft a Mace in Minecraft by combining the new Breeze Rod and Heavy Core items.

Breeze Rods can be crafted by combining 4 Wind Chargers, and Heavy Cores can be found in The Vault. If your Mace starts to lose durability, it can be repaired at any anvil by using Breeze Rods.
