A '''Great Stone Mace''' is a two-handed melee [[Weapon]] for the [[Hammermage]] faction. They have an attack speed of 1.50 seconds and deal {{plink|Necromae|pic=Necromae damage icon|size=18px}} damage. All enemies capable of dropping combat equipment have a chance to drop Great Stone Maces, provided that the player has progressed through the main story to the point where they have chosen a [[Faction]], as before this point only non-faction equipment can be received.

Players who have chosen the Hammermage faction are able to receive Great Stone Maces in {{Common}}, {{Uncommon}}, {{Rare}}, or {{Epic}} [[Rarity]]. Players who chose the [[Guardian]] or [[Cryoknight]] factions will receive Great Stone Maces much less frequently, and only in {{Rare}} rarity, as these items are intended for other factions to use with the [[Infusion]] system to make {{Epic}} rarity weapons for their own faction.

Great Stone Maces are also able to be crafted by the [[Stonemason]] profession, at an item level up to the stonemason level of the crafter. Different level ranges of Great Stone Mace require different variants of the materials, but they all require 4 [[Granite (Etched)]] and 1 [[Suave Pole]].

==Variants==
The visual appearance of a Great Stone Mace is dependent only on its level. Great Stone Maces crafted by the Stonemason profession use different variants of the materials for each different visual appearance of the Great Stone Mace.

==Combat Stats==
{{Incomplete|The exact damage ranges of weapons are still being investigated}}
All Great Stone Maces attack at a speed of 1.50 seconds. They all deal {{plink|Impact|pic=Impact damage icon|size=18px}} damage, with a chance to convert the damage to  {{plink|Necromae|pic=Necromae damage icon|size=18px}}. The weapon strength and elemental chance of a Great Stone Mace obey formulae with slight variation:

:<math>\text{Strength} = L + 15\times R + 3 + [0-6] </math>
:<math>\text{Chance} = [30-49]% </math>

Where
*<math>L</math> is the Item Level
*<math>R</math> is the Rarity, expressed as number of stars

There is random variation in the stats for a Great Stone Mace, determined by the terms <math>[0-6]</math> for the strength and <math>[30-49]</math> for the elemental chance. Generally, a weapon with a lower roll on the chance will have a higher roll for the strength. It is believed that rarity affects the distribution of strength rolls, as {{Common}} items almost always roll 0-2, and higher values have only rarely been recorded.

From this formula it can be seen that each increase in Rarity of a Great Stone Mace is equivalent to 15 additional levels. Thus a Great Stone Mace at level 0 {{Epic}}, at level 15 {{Rare}}, at level 30 {{Uncommon}}, or at level 45 {{Common}} will all have the same minimum combat strength of '''63'''.

The strongest possible Great Stone Mace is a level 500 {{Epic}} Great Stone Mace with a maximum strength roll, which has the following stats:
