Basic Attack
A standard 3-hit combo.
Charge Attack
The Knight lunges forward slightly with a powerful forward slash, which is followed by 5 large explosions. The explosions do not go over gaps. Unlike the Glacius, Voltedge, Combuster, and Obsidian Edge charge explosions, the Acheron explosions do not inflict a status effect.

The following damage values represent the weapon at its completed level, without any UV or bonus from other equipment, and are listed as a range found from the first to last floor of each stratum.

Notes
Acheron is a river in Greece. In Greek mythology, it was one of the rivers of the underworld.
Acheron and the other swords in its alchemy path resemble the katana, a sword which was used by the samurai of feudal Japan. These swords are the only swords in the game where the knight holds the scabbard in the opposite hand. Compared to its predecessor, Silent Nightblade, Acheron has a different scabbard, a larger blade, and a purple haze.
