Crude Mace Concept: Strong but Slow Weapon With Recyclable Iron

The Crude Mace is a spiked mace made entirely of iron, with an attack damage of 7. However, each attack comes with a 4-second cooldown. There is a 10% chance for either Skeletons or Baby Piglins to spawn holding a Crude Mace. Baby Piglins that spawn with a Crude Mace will become hostile toward players unless they are wearing gold armor. The only way to obtain a Crude Mace in survival mode is by defeating a Skeleton or Baby Piglin that is holding one. If acquired early in the game, it becomes a convenient weapon that provides a small boost to beginners. The Crude Mace can also be smelted only in a furnace, yielding iron ingots. This allows players to recycle unused Crude Maces into iron for tools, armor, or blocks once they no longer need the weapon.
