Mace Combat Backport
by Mary_Undying
Mace Combat Backport brings the mace weapon and its related features from the 1.21 release to Forge and NeoForge builds for 1.20.1 and 1.19.2.
What it does
The mod adds a mace weapon to the game. Its recipe uses a breeze rod and a heavy core, and its wind charge projectile item is available as well. The mace's damage grows with the density of the attack, and a fall from height lets the attacking player deal more damage.
Breach reduces how effective a target's armor is when the mace hits it. Wind burst launches the user's attack, which changes how fights are played out. A config option lets server owners switch the mace to the behavior of later versions.
Installation is needed on the client and the server, so both sides run the mod. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, for 1.19.2 and 1.20.1, with 3.0.4-1.20.1 as the latest file from 2025-03-14. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. PW Patches requires Mace Combat Backport.
