 Built custom for the Tethys, the Xiphos system utilizes two sword-like devices sheathed within elevated wrist mounted housings on the forearms of the armor. Contained within each are a series of charged particle generation and control systems to keep a tight 'band' around each blade adding significantly to its cutting power. It should be noted that the housings for the Xiphos can act as recharging stations for the Atromos, replenishing its power pack while 'docked' atop one of the forearm housings. It takes approximately one minute for a full recharge, and during that time the rifle is unusable while docked. Built custom for the Tethys, the Xiphos system utilizes two sword-like devices sheathed within elevated wrist mounted housings on the forearms of the armor.

 The Tethys sports a pair of missile launchers, one mounted in each hip. The missiles use a small aetheric generator (simply referred to as 'the generator' by Elysians) to create rather massive destruction with a comparatively small charge. Each missile measures a mere 28cm end to end. Each charge contains basic computer systems, allowing them to correct their course and track an intended target within the limits of their range.  The Tethys sports a pair of missile launchers, one mounted in each hip.

-The Lochos, meaning 'War-Band' is a set of semi-autonomous drones launched from the wing sheaves. Acting much the same as the [[stararmy:nodal_support_bits|Nodal Support Bits]] on Yamataian armours, the Lochos contain limited semi-sentient AI constructs to correlate targeting data for themselves as well as the host by using the Tethys as a central hub. This allows the Lochos, and Tethys to act in concert with the Lochos providing fire-support and defense while the Tethys goes on the offensive. Each of the wing sheaves houses five of these miniturized pinion shaped drones. They come complete with miniature particle drives to allow rapid maneuvering changes, a limited powersource/storage capacity and charged particle weapon.+The Lochos, meaning 'War-Band' is a set of semi-autonomous drones launched from the wing sheaves.

 The Tethys can come with, or have applied a form of [[materials:zanarium|Zanarium Stealth Coating]] applied to it to cut down on suit power emissions, and profile. When combined with the Active Camouflage system this would create a potent form of stealth. However, some pilots may find this detestable to use on the battlefield and as such it is not a standard addition, being an optional add-on that usually has to be cleared by the armourer in charge and or possibly the squadron leader. The Tethys can come with, or have applied a form of [[materials:zanarium|Zanarium Stealth Coating]] applied to it to cut down on suit power emissions, and profile.
