  • Density is no longer as powerful and the mace now does less damage when falling from great heights.
    • See the § New mace damage formula below.
    • Reduced the mace's base damage to 5HP♥♥♥. This means the player will do 6HP♥♥♥ damage when attack with it.

f(h) is the damage done by the mace when falling from a height of h blocks
