Inferno Stun Mace

Quickstart

1. Craft the Inferno Stun Mace using the recipe below.
2. Equip it in your hand like any other weapon.
3. Melee attack an enemy to stun and ignite it.
4. Sneak and use the item (right-click / trigger use) while aiming to launch an inferno bolt at your target.

Overview

The Inferno Stun Mace is a striking double-bladed weapon wreathed in fire. It hits hard in melee combat, briefly stunning and igniting whatever it strikes, and it can also unleash a safe, terrain-friendly fireball at range. Its glowing gold text and fiery particle effects make it stand out as a rare, powerful weapon for players who like an aggressive, fire-themed playstyle.

What It Adds

• Inferno Stun Mace – a rare, glinting melee weapon with a unique 3D model.
• A melee strike effect that slows and burns enemies.
• A ranged "inferno bolt" attack that damages entities without destroying terrain.
• Durability feedback through fire particles and sound cues as the weapon wears down.

How To Use

Melee Attacks: Simply swing the mace at an enemy. On a successful hit, the target is slowed significantly (as if hit with a strong Slowness effect) for a few seconds and set ablaze, giving you time to follow up or escape.

Ranged Fireball: Hold sneak and use the item while aiming at a target. This launches a fiery projectile that travels in the direction you're looking. Unlike normal fireballs, it is safe for the environment — it won't blow up terrain, only damaging and igniting whatever entity it strikes. There is a short cooldown between shots, so you can't spam it endlessly.

Durability: The mace has limited durability. As it wears down, it will emit flame particles and a fizzing sound at a warning threshold, and dramatic explosion effects when it's about to break. Keep an eye (and ear) out for these cues so you can repair it in time.

Crafting And Obtaining

Craft the Inferno Stun Mace at a crafting table by combining a vanilla Mace with Blaze Powder and Fire Charges, as shown in the recipe below:

Repairing: The mace can be repaired using:

• Blaze Rods – restores a large amount of durability.
• Magma Cream – restores a moderate amount of durability.

Use these items on the mace (such as at an anvil or crafting station that supports item repair) to keep it battle-ready.

Abilities And Mechanics

• The weapon is enchantable, so you can add enchantments through an enchanting table or anvil to further boost its combat power.
• It counts as a sword-type weapon for enchantment compatibility and other sword-related interactions.

Progression And Strategy

The Inferno Stun Mace excels at controlling fights: stun an opponent to prevent them from retaliating, then either finish them off in melee or back off and pepper them with inferno bolts. Because the ranged attack has a cooldown, it's best used to punish enemies at range or to finish off a target after a stun rather than as your primary damage source. Keep blaze rods or magma cream on hand to repair the mace between fights, especially before venturing into dangerous encounters where you'll rely on both its melee and ranged capabilities.
