i've never made a pvp mace fighter. but according to uo guide mace fighting has something interesting i never knew. but i would like to fact check it... does mace fighting actually damage armor in PVP as stated in UO guide: In PvP combat, mace weapons are valued because they always damage an opponent's armor when a hit is scored. Such weapons also do a small amount of additional damage to a target's Stamina when hit. and does this also apply on the Seige and Mugen shards?

As pointed out, only stamina is affected now. But back in the early days maces did destroy armor.

I trained macing (1998) with a friend on Pac who had a lot of armor he wanted to get rid of ... so I beat the heck out of him in his house. As my skill got better, the armor got mangled faster. I don't recall when they took this part away, tho.

I remember fighting a macer at a pvp tournament , and the fight lasted long enough that he broke half of my armor before I died.
