\ud83d\udcd6 **Description**<\/p>\n

**MaceLimiter** is a powerful and highly configurable Minecraft plugin designed to balance the **Mace** weapon introduced in Minecraft 1.21. The Mace’s devastating smash attack and unique mechanics can break PvP balance on competitive servers, especially LifeSteal, Factions, and hardcore PvP environments.<\/p>\n

This plugin offers **two distinct balancing modes** to fit your server’s playstyle:<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udde1\ufe0f **Mode 1: SINGLE_MACE (The Highlander Rule)**
\n> *”There can be only one.”*<\/p>\n

Only **ONE Mace** can exist on the entire server at any time. This creates an intense dynamic where the Mace becomes a legendary trophy that players fight over. When destroyed, the recipe becomes available again for a new challenger to claim.<\/p>\n

\u2694\ufe0f **Mode 2: UNLIMITED_NO_ENCHANT (The Nerf)**
\n> *”Power without enhancement.”*<\/p>\n

Players can craft **unlimited Maces**, but they **cannot be enchanted**. No Density, no Breach, no Mending. This keeps the Mace usable but prevents it from becoming an unstoppable force when combined with powerful enchantments.<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udfae **Use Cases** <\/p>\n

**1. LifeSteal Servers**
\nThe Mace’s massive damage output can one-shot players, stealing hearts instantly. MaceLimiter prevents this from becoming server-breaking:
\n– **Mode 1**: Only one player can wield this power at a time
\n– **Mode 2**: Mace stays useful but not OP without enchants<\/p>\n

**2. Factions \/ Raiding Servers**
\nPrevent faction leaders from hoarding multiple enchanted Maces:
\n– Container restrictions prevent vault storage
\n– Single Mace creates faction wars over the weapon
\n– Destruction detection resets the playing field<\/p>\n

**3. Hardcore PvP Servers**
\nBalance competitive PvP without removing the Mace entirely:
\n– Keep the unique smash attack mechanic
\n– Remove enchantment stacking abuse
\n– Create legendary weapon dynamics<\/p>\n

**4. SMP \/ Semi-Vanilla Servers**
\nAdd excitement without heavy modification:
\n– Single Mace becomes a server-wide event
\n– Players hunt for the Mace holder
\n– Natural balancing through scarcity<\/p>\n

**5. Event Servers**
\nPerfect for special events and competitions:
\n– “Hunt the Mace Holder” events
\n– Last player standing with Mace wins
\n– Timed Mace challenges<\/p>\n

\u2753 **FAQ**<\/p>\n

**Q: Does this work with Netherite upgrades?**
\n> Yes! In both modes, players can use the Smithing Table to upgrade the Mace (if Minecraft adds this feature). The Smithing Table is allowed by default.<\/p>\n

**Q: What happens if the Mace owner logs out?**
\n> In Mode 1, the plugin tracks the Mace in “offline inventory.” No one can craft a new Mace until the owner returns or the Mace is destroyed.<\/p>\n

**Q: Can players bypass restrictions with creative mode?**
\n> By default, no. However, players with the `macelimiter.bypass` permission can bypass container restrictions.<\/p>\n

**Q: Does this affect existing Maces?**
\n> Yes. When switching to Mode 2, any existing enchanted Maces will have enchantments removed when interacted with.<\/p>\n

**Q: What if the Mace is in an unloaded chunk?**
\n> The plugin tracks ownership by UUID. The Mace state persists even if the chunk is unloaded. When loaded again, tracking continues.<\/p>\n

**Q: Can I have multiple Maces in Mode 1?**
\n> No, that’s the entire point! Only ONE Mace can exist. To reset, use `\/macelimiter reset` or wait for the Mace to be destroyed.<\/p>\n

**Q: Does this work with McMMO or other skill plugins?**
\n> Yes! MaceLimiter only affects crafting, enchanting, and storage. Combat mechanics from other plugins are unaffected.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udc1b **Troubleshooting**<\/p>\n

| Issue | Solution |
\n|——-|———-|
\n| Mace can still be crafted | Check `mace-crafted` in config, run `\/macelimiter reset` |
\n| Messages not showing | Check `language` setting, verify lang file exists |
\n| Container restrictions not working | Verify `plugin-mode` is `SINGLE_MACE` |
\n| Enchanting not blocked | Verify `plugin-mode` is `UNLIMITED_NO_ENCHANT` |
\n| Colored names not applying | Enable `colored-name: true` in config |
\n| Commands not working | Check permissions, use `\/macelimiter help` |<\/p>\n
