While swords took years to master, while halberds needed constant training and bows needed great patience, maces always were of a surprising simplicity. Lift it high, bring it down hard, as the brutes say. However, with the more frequent use of plate armour and great shields, simple maces lost some of their efficiency over time.
That's why some blacksmiths came up with a clever way to deal with this issue: add an iron spike on one side, and a hammer head on the other. That way, armours could be pierced, and wars won. Moreover, no need for long years of tiresome training for armies wanting to use this great hammer. The sum of these factors was what enabled the mace to be used for centuries after some more complex tools, such as the crossbow, were used in war.
