The sword has a cleaver-shaped blade with spikes and purple grooves along it and is made to perform quick and unexpected attacks that set enemies for combos rather than strong blows against them. Its specials can either cover a considerable area and quickly strike more than one foe at once or deliver a surprise leaping strike with focus on a single opponent. Enemies must be aware when a warrior with the Sword of Hades approaches, otherwise they can be sliced to pieces even before having a chance to react.

Trivia
The launching attack performed by pressing Triangle during Wraith's Ambush can actually be performed since level 1, before ranking up, although the instructions for it will only appear when level 2 is reached.
Petition of Pirithous resembles the Titan Strike special from Cronos' Blade, only without leaving a trail of electricity in its wake and knocking enemies back on the final hit.
