Crimson Mace Axe

Quickstart

At a crafting table, combine a mace, red dye, crimson fungus, and a netherite ingot to make the Crimson Mace Axe. The recipe is shapeless, so ingredient placement does not matter.

Put it in your main hand and attack a living target. Try striking while falling for the mace-like impact.

Overview

The Crimson Mace Axe is a rare melee weapon with the look and name of an axe, but its defining feature is the crushing force of its hits. It has 500 durability.

How To Use

• Attack normally to hit a target.
• Strike while descending to add an impact effect: extra damage and knockback.
• Its listed base attack damage is 7. Its special hit deals 1,000 damage to living targets, though Minecraft’s damage protections can still prevent a kill.

Crafting And Obtaining

Craft it at a crafting table with one each of a mace, red dye, crimson fungus, and netherite ingot. It can be enchanted as a sword.

Abilities And Mechanics

A descending strike gains extra damage based on how quickly you are falling, up to 10 additional damage, and knocks the target away from you. Build up height before attacking to try this effect.
