Crafted from
Torch binding and fiery orbital spinning
Crafted directly in the player inventory by combining a standard Mace with 99 Torch units without needing a crafting bench, the Flaming Mace improves baseline flail utility. Swinging with a Very slow rhythm, it inflicts 9 base melee damage. Holding down the attack button spins the burning head around the wielder to create a protective barrier that illuminates dark spaces and has a chance to set foes ablaze.
Ignition utility and early flail progression
The Flaming Mace offers a clear direct improvement over the baseline mace by applying the On Fire! debuff to targets and shedding bright light in subterranean shafts. Releasing the attack button launches the spiked head forward to crush approaching bats and zombies. It remains a dependable defensive tool until discovering biome flails like the Ball O' Hurt or crafting The Meatball. The Godly modifier offers the best balance of damage, critical chance, and knockback.
Trivia
- The Flaming Mace continues to cast bright light even while submerged under water.
- Spinning the flail head continuously deflects incoming enemy darts and breaks fragile hostile projectiles.
