Best Enchantments for Mace | Minecraft 1.21 Guide

What is the Mace? Why is it So Powerful? 🤔

The Mace is a unique melee weapon introduced in the Minecraft 1.21 “Trial Chambers” update. Its defining feature is the falling damage mechanic. This means the higher you fall onto an enemy, the more damage you deal. This offers a high-risk, high-reward, highly strategic, and incredibly fun playstyle.

Crafted with a Heavy Core and a Breeze Rod, the Mace is exceptionally effective in areas with vertical structures like Trial Chambers, Nether fortresses, or End cities.

How to Craft a Mace? 🛠️

Follow these steps to obtain this powerful weapon:

3 Must-Have Exclusive Mace Enchantments 🌪️✨

Three unique enchantments designed specifically for the Mace elevate it from a standard weapon to a legendary tool. Here they are and what they do:

Enchantment	Max Level	Function	Importance
Density	V	Increases the Mace’s bonus damage per block fallen.	The most critical enchantment. Directly enhances the Mace’s core mechanic.
Breach	IV	Ignores a portion of the target’s armor, dealing significantly more damage to armored enemies.	Essential for PvP and armored mobs.
Wind Burst	III	Launches you upward after a successful hit.	Enables consecutive falling attacks and tactical mobility.

1. Density 💎

The heart and soul of the Mace lies in this enchantment. At Density V, the extra damage per block fallen reaches staggering levels. A fall of 15-20 blocks can potentially one-shot almost any enemy. Apply this enchantment to your Mace as soon as you find it.

2. Breach 🛡️⚡

Need to attack a player in Netherite armor or a Zombified Piglin? The Breach enchantment is made for this. By negating armor points, it ensures the Mace’s massive falling damage goes straight to the health bar. A must-have for PvP.

3. Wind Burst 🌬️🚀

This enchantment changes the dynamics of combat. It automatically launches you into the air after hitting an enemy. This allows you to:

1. Immediately set up for a second falling attack.
2. Escape other surrounding enemies.
3. Gain incredible mobility on the battlefield. Maximizes both strategy and fun factor.

Crucial General Enchantments for the Mace 🛠️💯

As important as the exclusive enchantments are the standard ones that increase your Mace’s longevity and overall efficiency.

Enchantment	Max Level	Function	Why It’s Necessary
Mending	I	Repairs the item’s durability using collected XP orbs.	Allows you to use your Mace indefinitely. ESSENTIAL!
Unbreaking	III	Reduces the chance of the item losing durability.	Forms a perfect duo with Mending, maximizing durability.
Smite	V	Deals extra damage to undead mobs (Zombies, Skeletons, Wither).	The best general damage enchantment since Mace cannot get Sharpness.
Bane of Arthropods	V	Deals extra damage to arthropod mobs (Spiders, Silverfish).	Has a much more niche use. Smite is generally preferred.

Mending + Unbreaking 🔄

These two enchantments make your Mace a “lifetime” weapon. You won’t have to constantly repair a valuable weapon and can focus solely on vanquishing enemies. Do not skip this duo.

Damage Enchantment: Smite or Bane of Arthropods? ⚖️

The Mace cannot receive Sharpness. Therefore, your options are:

• Smite V: Highly recommended. Provides a massive damage boost against the most common undead mobs like Zombies, Skeletons, Wither Skeletons, the Wither boss, and Zombified Piglins. Combined with Density and fall damage, it guarantees one-hit kills.
• Bane of Arthropods V: Only effective against Spiders, Cave Spiders, Silverfish, and Endermites. Not as universally useful as Smite.

The Best (Ultimate) Mace Enchantment Combination 🏆

Based on all this information, here is the perfect enchantment combination for a “god-tier” Mace:

1. Density V – (Mandatory)
2. Breach IV – (Mandatory)
3. Wind Burst III – (Highly Recommended)
4. Mending – (Mandatory)
5. Unbreaking III – (Mandatory)
6. Smite V – (Best General Option)

With this combination, your Mace will become an unstoppable force in both PvE (against mobs) and PvP (against players).

How to Get These Enchantments? 📚🔮

• Trial Chambers Vaults: The best way to obtain enchanted books for Density, Breach, and Wind Burst is by unlocking Vaults in Trial Chambers using a Trial Key.
• Librarian Villagers: You can trade emeralds with Librarian villagers for general enchantments like Unbreaking and Smite.
• Fishing & Looting Chests: You can rarely find these enchanted books by fishing or looting various chests around the world, particularly dungeon chests.
• Anvil: Remember to use an Anvil to apply all enchanted books to your Mace!

Conclusion: Ascend to the Skies and Descend with Fury! 🚀💥

The Mace is one of the most innovative and powerful weapons added to Minecraft. When enchanted correctly, it will completely change your gameplay experience. Multiply your damage with Density, shatter armor with Breach, and dance across the battlefield like a meteor with Wind Burst! Ensure this power is permanent with Mending and Unbreaking.

You are now an expert on the best enchantments for the Mace. Now it’s time to take this knowledge and forge one of the most potent weapons ever tested in the game! Happy hunting! 😉
