Mace

There are three types of Maces: Sceptres, One-Handed Maces and Two-Handed Maces. All types deal melee physical damage. Sceptres (One-Handed only) requires Strength and Intelligence and have "Increased Elemental Damage" as implicit mod.

Sceptres can spawn both caster mods (spell damage, Cast Speed, etc.) and fighter mods (Accuracy, Strength, Attack Speed, etc.) while Maces can only spawn fighter mods.

Two-Handed Maces, like all Two-Handed weapons, can have maximum of 6 sockets. One-Handed Maces and Sceptres can have maximum of 3 sockets.
