Where to Find Mace in Minecraft

Mace is associated with Trial Chambers (deep underground). Vertically it is tied to the Y -40 to -20 range, which is the band you want to be mining or exploring in rather than wandering at random depths. The relevant structure, a Trial Chamber, generates deep underground in the Overworld and is built from copper, tuff, and exposed blocks of these materials — a useful visual cue while caving. Trial Chambers generate deep underground, often near Deepslate level. Use /locate structure trial_chambers in creative or look for copper-heavy underground structures. In total, Mace can reach your inventory through collecting it as a mob drop and looting it from generated structure chests, so you can pick whichever path your current world makes easiest.

The most reliable way to get Mace is to craft it at a Crafting Table from Heavy Core and Breeze Rod, because crafting is repeatable and does not depend on luck. Before you can craft it, gather the ingredients: Heavy Core (claim it from an Ominous Vault inside a Trial Chamber) and Breeze Rod (kill a Breeze in a Trial Chamber). The Breeze mob spawns exclusively from Trial Spawners inside Trial Chambers. Heavy Core is a rare drop from Ominous Vaults, requiring an Ominous Trial Key. The mace negates all fall damage on a successful hit and deals bonus damage based on fall distance. Since this comes from a mob, the Looting enchantment on your sword raises the drop rate, and building or finding a dedicated spawn area turns a one-off kill into a renewable farm. Remember that Mace does not stack, so each one you gather takes a full inventory slot — bring a chest or shulker box if you plan to collect several. Worth noting on the version side: Added in 1.21 (Tricky Trials Update). Given how rare Mace is, most players treat each one as a milestone, so it is worth keeping it safe in an ender chest until you are ready to put it to use.

Players hunting for Mace often look for Wind Charge, Trial Key, Ominous Trial Key, and Diamond Sword as well, since they share locations, recipes, or a progression path. For full stats and the crafting grid, the dedicated Mace item page has the complete breakdown.
