OHHHHH maces work the way they do because they use a breeze rod for crafting!!!! wait!!!! thats so smart!!!! its because of the breeze rod being part of the handle that maces have the same effect as wind charges when you hit something after falling from up high!!!!!!

something about the heavy core combined with a breeze rod gives that effect when hitting stuff while falling. maybe the heavy core hitting against something while the wielder is falling causes enough pressure/force on the handle to the point it reacts like a wind charge

does anyone know how to be normal about minecraft
