Explosive Mace
by that_gob
Explosive Mace gives the mace a new enchantment that makes a smash attack blast nearby mobs outward with force, for NeoForge on 1.21.1.
What it does
The mod adds a new enchantment for the mace. A mace carrying it lets a smash attack explode, pushing mobs around the impact point by about one block. The enchantment can be found in enchantment tables, through villager trades and in loot tables, wherever other enchanted books turn up. Each attack is a wind burst that goes off one second after the strike, lifting the player into the air. Equipment runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need the mod. The mod is released under the MIT License and is not open source.
Key features
Explosive smash attacks

Wind burst launch
One second after the strike, a wind burst lifts the player upward, which adds mobility after a smash.
Found like other enchantments
The enchantment can be obtained from trading, looting or enchanting, the same way as vanilla enchanted books.
