The mace has been nerfed

The Mace was nerfed in the game's new snapshot, I didn't like it and I think many players did too, because you left the game's best weapon useless. There is no longer any reason or fun to craft a mace, because an enchanted netherite sword ends up being more useful, with the nerf, you can't even kill basic mobs/monsters from a low height and I think it's difficult for someone to climb the clouds just to kill a zombie.

    this is simply untrue. i am on the latest snapshot, 24w18a, and i was able to one-shot a zombie with an unenchanted mace from 4 blocks up. please be sure to actually test your problems before presenting them, because the mace nerf was a little limiting, but it still is powerful, and should not be underestimated and underappreciated like what you just did.

    This change makes the mace useful pretty much only when falling, which is no fun at all.

    I think it’s sad that the wind burst enchantment is now useless because of the attack speed you are no longer able to chain multiple attacks together

    The windswept sword could solve the issue with the mace, by accumulating strong charge cycles on critical hits, and when the cycles accumulate to 10, it can deal 30 damage if you hold the attack key for 2 seconds.
