*As of the (03/30/2023) KR patch, '''Chain Blade Throw''' will no longer push enemies. Despite this, clearing potential remains relatively the same on non-Super Armor targets due to the large increase in throwing damage.

*The immediate cast will on average hit 3 times at point-blank range without charging and subsequently hit targets 2 to 8 times based on their width.
*When using the skill, there are 3 possible outcomes:
**The Gigantic trait only increases the size of the blades, not actual distance traveled. This does however increase the maximum damage potential by 2+ hits since it will still be able to hit targets it otherwise wouldn't be able to. When paired with Giant Potion, this is even more effective for the purposes of maintaining hits.
**'''Immediate Release''': '''Chain Blade Rotation''' will only deal the initial hit, and '''Chain Blade Throwing''' will deal up to 7 hits and cover an area similar to the [[Free Training]] room.
**'''Broken While Holding''': '''Chain Blade Rotation''' will deal however many hits it managed to before being cancelled. '''Chain Blade Throwing''' will deal 4 hits and cover half the original travel range.
**'''Fully Held''': will deal the initial '''Chain Blade Rotation''' hit and additional 10 hits. '''Chain Blade Throwing''' will activate as a finish, to deal 3 hits.

*'''Bloody Road''' has a notable post-cast delay, so despite the range, it can feel inconvenient to use.

*The skill will deal 10 hits instead of 11 in [[Free Training]].
