In battle, Corax favoured a [[Heavy Bolter]] for long-range killing, which he hefted and aimed as easily as an ordinary man would lift a battle rifle. He wielded two [[Archeotech]] pistols known as [[Wrath and Justice]] as additional firepower. For close quarters fighting he carried a three-headed [[Power Weapon|power whip]] specially crafted for him by the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]] known as ''[[Talionis]]'' as well as a pair of [[Lightning Claws]] known as the [[Raven's Talons]], all part of [[The Panoply of the Raven Lord]].{{Fn|12b}} In the absence of these weapons, he was more than able to tear apart enemies with his bare hands.{{Fn|6}} Corax wore a jet-black suit of [[Power Armour]] known as ''[[The Sable Armour]]'' which incorporated an advanced [[Jump Pack]] known as the ''[[Korvidine Pinions]]''. The Sable Armour was also capable of masking his energy signature and could be used to jam nearby enemy communications.{{Fn|7}}
Corax's most potent ability, however, was his "wraith-slip", also called a Shadow-Slip or Shadow-Walk. This allowed him to seemingly meld with the shadows around him, disappearing from the view of his foes before striking unseen.{{Fn|8}} Following his reappearance sometime after the Heresy, Corax became empowered by the [[Warp]] itself. Able to contend with the [[Daemon Primarch]] [[Lorgar]], Corax is now capable of transforming himself into shadows, darkness, and unkindnesses of ravens.{{Fn|13}}
