1. Godly Strength: Although not as fast as his brothers, Hades makes up for it by being able to unleash a flurry of multiple heavy jabs with his bident that are so strong, it’s implied Qin Shi Huang would’ve died instantly if they’d landed on him.

2. Godly Speed ​​& Reflexes: When Qin Shi Huang’s Tortoise Ripple touched the blood on top of his skin, Hades managed to move and shifted the crux of his Qi before the attack could go through the blood completely. His bident techniques are so fast, that they can even create afterimages.

3. Godly Stamina & Endurance: He single-handedly wiped out all the Titans that broke free from Tartarus in the Gigantomachy. In his fight with Qin Shi Huang, Hades received many of his own attacks turned back on him, a large portion of his left arm’s skin was ripped off and his side was gouged out, yet he remained unfazed.

4. Indomitable Will: Hades has displayed immense willpower. He is regarded as the most reliable God in Heaven, always putting his brothers’ well-being over his own safety. He never once showed any signs of fear, even when facing an entire army of Titans by himself.

5. Keen Intellect: Hades is an extremely intelligent individual. During his fight with Qin Shi Huang, Hades was able to quickly notice the Chinese Emperor’s ability to disrupt Qi flow and he was also able to come up with a counter for this ability by covering himself with his own blood to be able to see his attack.

Weapons used by Hades

1. Bident: Hades’ personal weapon that consists of two twisted silver prongs, a dark purple-bluish polearm, and a silver rounded tip on the other end. Before the seventh round, Hades fused the remains of Poseidon’s trident with his bident so he could fight alongside his fallen brother. After doing that, the bident gained a fin-like protrusion.

2. Ichor: Desmos (Four-Blooded Spear of Destiny): This is Hades’ trump card. By infusing Pluto Ichor of his blood into his bident, Hades upgrades his weapon into Ichor: Desmos, which consists of two sharp prongs with a long blade running through the middle and they all converge into a bloodstained tip. While this version of the bident is powerful, since Pluto Ichor contains Hades’ life force, if it were to run out, it would result in his death.
