Synergies
Instinct of the Master of Arms works with this weapon due to the fact it always deals critical hits.- Items that negate damage such as
Ice ArmorRotG or 
Foresight can be used to not die from getting hit.
Notes
- There is an achievement associated with this weapon called "I like to live dangerously...", which is achieved by completing a run with the sword in possession.
- The weapon's curse mechanic remains active even if it is merely held in the backpack (and therefore technically not "equipped" in the usual sense). The curse effect can only be escaped by dropping the weapon entirely.
- There is a bug involving holding this item in the backpack. Unless you drop it by holding interact, the curse will not be removed; even if you swap it to an active slot, and then drop it by swapping to another weapon.
- Unlike a curse from a cursed chest, equipping it does not prevent the player from using
Homunculus Rune and does not trigger the crit damage condition of 
Spite Sword. 
Ygdar Orus Li Ox will not be triggered when killed with this weapon in your inventory.- The
Damned aspect makes the drawback for the sword not trigger, making the sword not kill you in one hit making it really overpowered
