Mace Evaluations

Maces Ranking Explanation
Lodestone IconLodestone Extremely high stun weapon that comes with more bonus stun and the ability to apply stun to enemies in an AoE. Easily the best Mace in the game due to the Mace's use case of being a stun baton.
Battletrance IconBattletrance Battletrance is a step up from other Maces as it solves the slow attack speed and also gives a form of survivability to you and your teammates. Improves Ability Cast speed as well, which is highly beneficial for most one-handed melee users.
Star of Unbeing IconStar of Unbeing Star of Unbeing is a crowd-control heavy weapon that also comes with high poison accumulation, making it a utility-based Mace that finds its own niche due to the bases it covers.
Mace IconMace Standard issue Mace that you receive in the game. Boasts the highest stun out of any standard one-handed weapon, but suffers from the Mace's slow attack speed.

Best Mace Progression

Mace Progression

Wand How to Get and Explanation
1 Mace IconMace How to Get: Can be obtained at the start of the game if you start as a Court Augur. Otherwise, you can get a Mace from the Fellowship Harbor, east of Claviger's Landing in Dawnshore.
For the early segments of the game, you can stick with the starting Mace and swap between other weapons until you get access to Fior mes Iverno.
2 Lodestone IconLodestone How to Get: Can be purchased from a merchant named Stephan in the Emerald Stair region, northwest of Fior mes Iverno.
Once you acquire the Lodestone, this will become your main weapon that can scale with you until Late Game due to it amplifying the strengths and use cases of the Mace.
3 Battletrance IconBattletrance How to Get: Can be looted in Galawain's Tusks during the Chorus of the Lost side quest.
Alternatively, once you get to Galawain's Tusks, you can loot Battletrance and turn the Mace from being a stun-oriented weapon into a tool used to reliably Bludgeon your opponents and keep yourself sustained with its passives. This will be your final upgrade by Late Game, where damage becomes more important.
