11Overview33Sturdy Mace is a Rare / Epic club-class melee weapon in Windrose. A well-crafted flanged mace mounted on a stout haft. It carries just the right weight to crunch ribs with a dull, satisfying thud, without numbing your hands or flying loose after a couple of blows.55Clubs are one-handed blunt Crude weapons that scale with Strength; they cannot Perfect Block, so club builds lean into posture damage and heavy staggers. See Clubs for the full class profile.77At a Glance99FieldValueWeapon ClassClubsRarityRare / EpicDamage295 CrudeScalingStrength (A at Rare, S at Epic)ATK (Item Level 15)380ATK (Level 1 crafted)100Stack Size1FlavorThe best tool for persuasion when you've run out of both words and rum.1111Effects1212Rare and Epic variants share a base effect.

Ingredients: Sturdy Mace x1, Tumbaga Ingot x7. The ascension consumes the Rare weapon. See Tumbaga Ingot for sourcing notes and Upgrade System for the full ascension mechanic.2323How to Obtain2525Dropped from pirate camp and Blackbeard fort chests.Shares loot slots with other Sturdy-prefixed weapons.2727Loot Sources2929This weapon rolls from the shared Pirate Chest Loot Pool at a 20% per-chest chance across 13 chest spawns (Blackbeard Crew, Buccaneers', Decrepit, Old Skeleton, Smugglers', and Thomas Richards' chests). See that article for the full chest list and locations.3131Tactical Usage3333Best single-target club on a stamina-efficient frontline build. Strength (S) at Epic plus 15% reduced stamina cost makes it the lowest-friction club to mainhand all the way through endgame.3535Trade-hit with heavy swings and stagger chains since clubs cannot Perfect Block. Keep an eye on posture bars because most club effects and talents compound when enemies are staggered rather than just damaged.3737Talent Synergies3939Strength-scaling weapons pull from the Crusher branch of the Talent System, with Toughguy as a survivability complement. Relevant picks include talents that boost Crude damage, two-handed melee damage, posture break on staggered enemies, and stamina-efficient heavy attacks. Strength weapons also benefit from Toughguy talents like Stout Frame and Too Angry to Die that improve survivability during heavy-attack windows.4141See the Talent System article for the current list of unlockable talents and their exact bonus values. Respeccing talents costs an in-game currency, so early-game branch commitments tend to lock in weapon pairings for the rest of the playthrough.4343Comparison Within Class4545Sturdy Mace sits alongside 5 other clubs on the current live index.
