Mace!

I just had to make a thread about mace. I love mace! The noises, the knockdowns, the rrrip of your unwieldy club. My inv/mace just hit 38 and picked up crowd control, and I can't say I've ever had more fun with a tanker secondary. I don't suppose there's a real point here.

I love mace!

It loves you too.

Actually mace has had more tweaks over the years then any of the other melee weapons,
which would indicate that it's very special. :]

Mace was lacking some je ne sais quoi without being unbalanced in PvE terms really, well not imo anyway, but then it got buffed beyond my expectations. It's gone from not good at anything in particular to a good all rounder.


He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.

The sounds/animations/poundingness were really well done. I enjoy it on my Panthro tribute toon.

And you do mean special with no negative connotations, correct?

Because it always was special: Castle, BAB, and co. just had to remove some ugly bits to reveal the shining jewel that War Mace always was, heh. I love my Macer, that's for sure. I'd be playing him more right now if I hadn't decided that I need to get a non-Tanker or Scrapper to 50, heh.

I've decided to focus on one of my late 30s or 40s heroes and getting them to 50, as my altitis had led to a lot being piled there.

For my 50s, I have my first, a Fire/Fire Tanker (Grey Pilgrim), Sunset Samurai, a Kat/SR Scrapper, Menelmacar, an Arch/Dev Blaster, Tulkyas, a Shield/SS Tanker, Crey Hunter 1.0, a MA/Regen Scrapper, and Bladed Justice, a WP/DB Tanker.

So you can see why I thought I should branch out. People are occasionally needing controls, buffs, or debuffs on TFs or teams, so having somebody that could do that at 50 would be nice in my lineup. I had just finished getting Bladed Justice to 50, so I wanted a slight break from tanking before I ran my Invuln/Mace to 50. I still play him from time to time though: hard to resist the smash and crunch of Mace, hehe.
