Iron Mace
Iron Mace is an Uncommon sword with limited overall utility. While it can function as a basic melee weapon, it offers little that makes it stand out compared to other swords in its progression range.
Its main notable feature is the AoE slam on the final M1 attack, which allows it to hit multiple nearby enemies and provides some value for grouped farming. Outside of this, the sword lacks meaningful utility, mobility, or standout combat strengths, making it a fairly underwhelming choice for most players.
