Minecraft should have it

mace already has it's own unique function

This would change the function slightly and it would be cool

and mace is a melee weapon, not a ranged one

But what if it was ranged using an enchant

then they would have to do it for every other weapon as well

and it would make the current ranged weapons pretty much useless

Naw, the sword and axe and stuff still do the same enchants

you're making literally no sense

the mace's unique function would be faded to obscurity, the other melee weapons would have to undergo the same changes, and there's already a weapon in-game made to be thrown

I use my crossbow the way it’s meant to and/or with triple shot and piercing. The trident is always throwable, while enchants are usually something of endgame. Besides, if you leave the mace’s wind burst enchant then the main function will be preserved.

I hope you know how people are when a single update comes out

Like what? It’s one enchant that adds a fun Easter egg.

the trident will become useless, and nobody will use the mace the way it was meant to be used

I never said it would be. It’s another use for a single-weapon enchant referencing fun stuff and of course, as was stated, the mace would remain the same without the enchant as it is currently

but think about the public backlash

Ok

Where that always want more? Yes, I do

no where they completely forget the original use and only use the new use

No they wouldn’t. The mace’s previous function would remain the same, only changed by one enchant. ONE. Besides, there was already one bow type in Minecraft until the crossbow and the crossbow had different effect for enchants and new enchants

the crossbow was made as a buffed bow, the mace wasn't made to be a buffed trident
