tbf, it’s too specialized. They’re heavy so they can hurt through armor, which makes them slow. Terrible weapon vs an unarmored opponent, who can more easily just get out of the way or stay out of your reach.

There's just one lesson in mace school: "come at them from behind".

I think most weapons, including lack of weapons, benefits from surprise attacks from behind.
