Blessed Mace

A Blessed Mace (Saint Mace in Japan) is a Mace found in both Golden Sun games. They are occasionally dropped by Thunder Lizards in Venus Lighthouse (in Golden Sun) and by Turtle Dragons in the Great Western Sea and Treasure Isle (in The Lost Age). Being a Mace, it can be equipped by Isaac, Felix, Garet, Sheba, Mia, and Piers.

The Blessed Mace increases the wielder's attack by 126. Also, the wielder recovers 2 HP per turn. Unlike most artifact weapons, the Blessed Mace does not have an Unleash. However, it can be used in battle to restore 200 HP to one Adept (i.e. it casts Ply Well). It can be bought for 14500 coins and sold for 10875 coins.

The Blessed Mace is powerful in terms of attack points: in Golden Sun, it is the third-most powerful non-cursed weapon (with the other two being the Kikuichimonji and the Gaia Blade). Despite its raw power, the Blessed Mace is among the weakest weapons available at the time, due in large part to its lack of an Unleash. Also, its ability to restore HP in battle is of little use compared to the Righteous Mace and Asura's Armor. What little value it does have is in its "use effect", which may not see much practical use that late into the game. However, if you like to use Djinn a lot, this mace can be pretty useful as you don't use any Unleash effects. Because the Blessed Mace is the item with the highest attack bonus you can get for Mia, it is a good weapon for her if using Djinn all the time. It is essentially useless in Golden Sun: The Lost Age as stronger weapons and alternate ways to recover HP are already available.

RNG methods

This is a method for obtaining the Blessed Mace. It is guaranteed to work. Go to the room in Venus Lighthouse with the Psynergy Stone in the center. Go out through the left door and save in the room with the electric wall. Turn off the sysytem completely. Turn it on again and go back into the main room of Venus Lighthouse. Run around and get into a battle. It should be a Willowisp and a Recluse. Just run away from this battle. Keep running around in the same room and the second battle should be with a Thunder Lizard. Make sure Ivan has the Swift Sword and Isaac has the Gaia Blade. Have Isaac and Ivan attack the Thunder Lizard on the first turn and have Garet and Mia defending. The Thunder Lizard should attack Mia. On the next turn, just have Isaac use Flint on the Thunder Lizard and everyone else defend. This method should drop the Blessed Mace.
