WALKTHROUGH OF FIRST CASTLE IX
==================================
You start out the game as Richter Belmont and fight Dracula. There is no way For you to die, but if you beat Dracula fast enough your stats with Alucard Will be different, so all in all you just have to defeat Dracula no worries.

===================================
THE BEGINNING
SUGGESTED LEVEL: 1 (DUH)
ITEMS: pot roast, turkey, short sword, red rust, cube of Zoe
MONSTERS: Warg, zombie, bats, mermen, Bone Scimitar & skeleton
====================================
Once you have beaten Dracula you will be in control of Alucard. You should be In the courtyard and see a Warg in front of you. Use the square button to Attack him. Then move onto the next room. You should be in a dark room where another Warg is, then there is another one and after the second zombies will come from the ground. Then you should see 2 more Warg's, then you will be in a big room with bats at the top. Go where there are lots of rocks and attack the front to get a POT ROAST. Then if you go down you will see lots of mermen. I would train here until level 8 and don't go in the water it will hurt you. Once you have gotten to level 8 you might be low on hip points, but if you want you can use the pot roast.
Continue to the next room to find 3 Warg's just hit them once to kill them. Then you should encounter Death who talks to you and then takes your weapons. Good thing you trained with the best equipment. And don't forget to get a turkey before seeing death by the stairs. Then when you have talked with Death go to the next room and go up and go left. Then jump over the gap and into the next room. You will see a Bone scimitar he will drop a short sword, equip the sword, then go straight and find the room blocked then go back and up and kill the skeleton; it will give you a Red Rust. Do not equip the red rust it is weaker and can poison you after a couple times of using the sword.
Next go in the room straight in front of you and save your game. Then go up and get the Cube of Zoe, now you can get items from candles. Then go through the door and you will be in the Alchemy Laboratory.

========================================
ALCHEMY LABORATORY
SUGGESTED LEVEL: 8
ITEMS: Hide cuirasses, leather shield, resist thunder, cloth cape, sunglasses, Basilard, potion.
MONSTERS: Blood skeleton, throwing skeleton, Knight, spittle skeleton, Gaibon & Slogra, Bloody Zombie
=========================================
When you get into the laboratory you should see 3 types of skeletons; bone scimitar, blood skeleton and a throwing skeleton. Hit the Scimitar twice to kill it then get the hide Cuirass by activating the switch on the ground. Then you should see more skeletons and a save room by the first blood skeleton. Then go up past the other skeleton to find a knight hit him 3 times to kill him then kill the two bone scimitars. Then go down by pressing down X to go down, and then hit the table to get a leather shield. Then go to the next room to find the knife sub weapon in a candle, then go to the wall on the left and hit it 3 times, it should break. You will get a heart max up, then go down below the platform and attack the center to break the ground. And you should get the life max up then continue to go up to find another skeleton and then hit the glass to get a resist thunder.
Continue going up then find a spittle skeleton which when touched by the liquid you are poisoned. Then hit the two switches, the spikes should come down, and then move the switch in the opposite direction of the knight. Then activate the switch and the block should move up, then jump on it and go to the room up there. And you will find the cloth cape then go back and go the other way. Then find a big room go down and then up and to a save. Go up until you find the axe sub weapon in a candle use the axe instead then go to the room where a boss is.

____________________________________________
BOSS BATTLE / 200 HP EACH
SLOGRA & GAIBON

____________________________________________
What the strategy is you use the axe to throw at Slogra, because Gaibon picks up Slogra so when he does this use the axe until Slogra dies. Then attack Gaibon and use the shield when he uses fire balls or multiple fire balls. And when he uses a series of big fire balls duck and be close to him to attack him.
_____________________________________________
Then go on to the next room to find more skeletons and a bloody zombie. Then go in the room that is straight and be in a hallway. Then go down with the elevator to get the sunglasses I suggest you don't equip them. Then go down and hit the cannon and then get the Basilard and then go back and go up instead of straight. Then go save in the room to the right then go up and to the next room to be in a hallway with bloody zombies. Then you will be in a big room and jump down and try moving to the left to avoid being hit by the knight. Then hit the glass to get a potion.

Then go through the door to get a shield potion. You have gone in a circle, so go back into the room you just came from and dodge the Cthilu because he can take a good deal of damage on you. Then once you have gotten back go up and continue going that way then there should be in an area with clocks in the background, and then you should see a cut scene. After you have talked to her continue to the next room. Then you will come to where you can choose 3 ways just go straight and you will be in this long hallway containing 2 Red Roses and 3 Diplomatesus things.

_________________________________________________
BEEZLEBUB
This boss can be very easy or very hard. For it to be easy you need to have the topaz circlet, because this boss is mainly poison, so having the topaz circlet will heal you if you get touched by poison. This can be very hard if you don't equip/have the topaz circlet so choose what difficulty you want. I will be doing the easy difficulty. First off equip the topaz circlet if you have not done so. Then walk towards the center and you will see Beelzebub and he willbe hanging and occasionally he will have his poison bee minions that fly around and blitz at you. There really is no strategies to these bosses you just have to survive their attacks and deal damage. Here are some things you can do, jump and hit his legs/feet first because you are on the ground then you will have to jump on some platforms and jump at him to attack him. If low look for critters at the bottom for some hps (you must have the topaz circlet on for this or you will be poisoned.) Well best of luck to you. Afterwards you will get a life max up.
_________________________________________________
After you have beaten the boss go to the room where you found the bat familiar in the normal castle and you will find a ring of arcana (If you got one from the librarian trick then you will have two). Once you have done that go up and to you left to continue on with the laboratory. Go straight after you have exited then you will have to go up, I suggest you avoid the imps because they stop you and have to go berserk so just use the mist to get to the rooms.
First room should contain a goddess shield equip it then continue going up once you are up go back down, yeah I said go back down because that is just the way that I do it, If I tell you to go back then it is because you came here to get the map coverage. Once you have gone back to where I told you to go straight now go down. There should be a room to the left and it should be a save, save there. Now continue going down until you see a door to another room it will be another hallway that will lead to a square room (yeah I know all of the rooms are square) just explore around and don't leave yet, while exploring look out for transparent skulls called bitterfly you won't see them so watch out. You should have gotten a turquoise from a vase. Now go onto the other room.
Now you will be officially in the Marble Gallery

===============================================

Now go down the hall where stone skulls are they are invulnerable meaning that you can't ever defeat them (so don't even try). Then you will see a gorgon & Jack 0` Bones the gorgon breathes out stone which means if hit you will be petrified. Then go straight and you will find Guardians, remember that the guardians give you the most amount of experience in the game other than bosses. Watch out, the guardians are strong and powerful. Then you will have the option of going down or straight go down and you will have the option of choosing a sub weapon. Choose the Agunei the one at the right and looks like a ring. Then go to the rooms that are right and left of the sub weapons in cases. You should have gotten heart & life max ups then go back up and go left. You will be in a room with just candles continue and you will be in a big room what you have to do to avoid the enemies on the ground is to jump then jump quickly after you land onto another platform that is away from them. You will to jump down and land then jump quickly or use the bat or mist and fly down there. Choice is yours.
After doing that a couple of times you will be in another room doing the same things. There is a room located up, go up there and go to the door and don't go in yet I will cover that once the left side of the castle is covered. Continue going left and go into the next room, go straight and into the next room with the greenish door to get a meal ticket. Then go back and go up then take the pathway that leads up and get a iron ball. Next you will be in another room, look familiar? This is the room where the 3 Diplomatesus are and stone roses.

After the save go down and to the left and you will be fighting The Creature.
________________________________________________
THE CREATURE
First off this boss is not very hard; he likes to roll around so you will have to jump high if you do not want to be clipped when you jump.
He will roll around about 2 1/2 times jump over him and when you land attack he with your sword and you should be able to inflict damage on him. This is about as much as he does, if you get close to him he will threaten you with his hammer just move away and he won't swing. After you have done that several times I mean several times you should defeat him and obtain the tooth of Vlad. This gives you a 10 strength bonus (if you activate it).
________________________________________________
Go onto the next room and you will find a shield potion. In the next room go to the top and hit the vase to get a high potion. Keep going straight down until you find a save that is at the bottom of the outer wall. When you have gotten to the save you should have gotten a garnet in a vase, now save. Now go back up and the second door on the right go in and go through the hallway and you will be at another teleporter, now go back up and go through the first door that you see while going up. And you should be in the Inverted Long Library.

=================================================
This room has Schmoo & lions, the Schmoo are the monsters that drop the highly known Crissaegrim which attacks four times in a row and does not require two hands. Anyways continue on to the next room. Next room you get to pick a direction doesn't really matter which one but the path I am going to take is straight. New monster here is the Scarecrow. You will encounter a Schmoo then the scarecrow then the lion that is patiently waiting for you. The Scarecrow cannot hurt you if you are on the ground and the stick hits you, you only take damage if you hit the body that is on the pole, Continue to the next room. Nothing here go to the next room, more Schmoo and scarecrows, if you get hit by the scarecrow you will go backwards and have to kill the Schmoo and the scarecrow again so watch out. The next monster you see is the tin man you can jump over this monster if you want because he is a pain in the butt. You will finally be by the librarians desk is so just go to the hole and you will fall through and hit the vases to get the items containing: library card, opal & turquoise.
Go through the next rooms until you come to the big part of the library. Now go down all the way and go right to get: resist fire, ice stone. Now go far left until you meet a gap jump into the gap and go left and you should get nothing hahahahahaha funny just kidding you don't get anything over here sorry, go back and go up and left then up again. You will be back where you started see I told you it didn't matter which direction to go. Now you have to go back to where there is a black mark on the map (there should if you didn't venture into anything you weren't SUPPOSE TO DO! You should encounter a save, save there.
Continue to the next room where there is no one there. You will be in a bigger room go down and go to the room on the left. Once in the room hit the candle on the table and you will get a neutron bomb. Like last time go to the bookcase and move in the left direction and it should move, go through to get the Badelaire. This weapon increases attack with more game time you play, it is in fact one of the strongest when you have gotten 99:59:59 the max time.
Now go back and go up in the direction on which the lesser demon boss was in the normal castle this time you will meet a tin man where the Lesser Demon was, Continue on right and then up to find a Lion and another tin man. Go through the bars with the mist and left to get a Staurolite. You are now done with the Long library (Gasp) no go back to the outer wall. Once you are in the outer wall go down to about where the save is and go through that door to be in the clock tower.

MONSTERS: Valhalla knight, medusa head, cloaked knight,
=================================================
You should be in the Clock Tower; you are in a small area right now but when you go through either door you will be in the big area. I am splitting the parts by choosing the door straight away, then coming back and going to the door on the top. Let's get started.
When you have gone through the door your only choice is to fall go ahead fall you won't take any damage for falling down. When you get to the ground go far left (if you fell right next to the doorway you came then just left) and you should see a door, go through and receive the Dragon Helm this is one of the beginning items that you started with equip it. Now go far right and watch out for the Valhalla knights. Once you get to the wall on the far right use your gravity jump (down, up, X) and do that until you hit a platform then change into the bat or mist and move across until you get the doorway you came from if you use the bat the Wing Smash spell would allow you to get there very fast.
Once you get to the other side go through the door and go through the door that is above you. This part is really self explanatory. Once you have done that you should have gotten two items: magic missile & Karma coin. Now get the rest of the rooms map coverage then go through the door that leads you to the next room. On your way in getting the remainder map coverage you should come across three items on platforms: Strength potion, Luminus & Smart potion.
Now that you are in the next room go up or down depending on which door you went through. When you got to the top go back down and go through the door that is on the right of you. Remember this room? This is the room where you have to hit the switches and you find a secret area, I told you how to do it on the last castle so you don't need an explanation do you? Do you?

EXPLANATION OF THE GEARS
If you do not know how to do the little secret with the gears then listen up. Go up to the gear (there on the sides by the way) and hit them with anything that you have, UNTIL you hear a "click" then stop IMMEDIATELY because if you attack again it will not work. There are four gears 2 in "second room" & 2 in the "third room", the room where you get the goods is in the third room. When you have hit all the gears the room should contain: Diamond, life apple, Sunstone.

END OF EXPLANATION OF GEARS
Now go to the left of the third room and if you have the faerie on the faerie should say this wall looks familiar type thing, so attack it with your weapon and it should break revealing a path that leads to another room(s). After you have gotten out of the room you should have gotten: Life max up & a heart max up. Now go through the door that is straight ahead from the wall you broke. Now you have gotten out of the mess of the clock tower stuff.
Once you have made it here go straight and jump up to the higher platform and go that direction; now go that way until you get to the end then drop down a little and go the opposite way so that you get the map coverage. Now that you have gotten the map coverage I need to now tell you of some secrets that are hidden in this room.
1. On the far right of the room at the top if you hit the wall it should break allowing you to get the Moon rod.
2. In between where you have the spike platform move up and down and the bomb knight there is a gap where you can jump down and land on the side if you hit the wall you will find a pot roast that is on the top left.
Once you have done that continue through the next door. You will be in a room that has no enemies but check under the platforms because there is items that are located if you break certain objects. If you are low on HP then I suggest you go back so that you don't die and have to come and do all of that again. The items you get are: TNT, Bwaka knife & a Shuriken. Once you have gone through the door at the end of the hallway is a boss.
_________________________________________________
DARKWING BOSS BATTLE
At first Darkwing flies around jump and attack you should take out about 68 if you are at the same level as it suggests. But if he starts to flap his wings get behind him and start attacking him, if you are in front of him he will blow you to the wall and take out damage upon you. You should be able to defeat him if you hit him about 10 times. After the battle you will get the ring of Vlad increasing your INT (intelligence).

Then encounter another one after you came out of the save now go up and left and land on a platform underneath, then go through to the next room. You should see the impale things underneath you and an imp and bitterfly. First thing to do is get rid of the Imp and Bitterfly then jump over the gap and hit the flames if there are any. Then jump up with your shield and if possible hit the Gremlin who is creating the flames. Watch out when jumping up to the flames because of two bitterflies are there and are transparent (invisible) and a Salem witch is there too. Next jump down and go down as far as possible and go left into another room and watch out.
Now ascend down and go to the room at the bottom, to get a life max up. Now go back up and go to the door on your left. This room has nothing, the next room will have two gremlins and two Salem witches. Remember the part where there are two secrets in the same spot? Well this is the place there is a secret on the top right wall and a secret on the tip top above the platform that is in the middle. The one of the right has a heart max up the top one you will get a Katana now go through the door to the left. You should meet a fire demon and lesser demons once you have defeated the fire demon go to the hole that is next to the door you came through and you will find another Fire Demon kill that one and go through the door ahead of you to find a high potion in the glass.

You should find a hallway with no enemies but find candles to hold money in them. The third hallway is pretty much the same as the first hallway with the exception that there is now nova skeletons. You will get to the end and have to jump down and jump up very quickly in order to get a library card.
The next room will be a part where lots and lots of Medusa heads come in a single file line and start going left to right. This is an excellent spot to train if you get high on levels. Just continue going down and go to the door that is to the right. Now go straight and jump over the gap and you will find a potion, now go back and go down the gap that I told you to jump over. Further down you should have found a Antivenom in a area much like the one you found the potion by. Now continue on and you should find a save that is a little to your left save there.

Do that to get the map coverage in the area. You should have gotten the Alucard Shield which is one if not the strongest shield in the game.
Now go the other direction after completing the coverage on the other side. The hallway should have 2 Jack O` Bones. You will come to the waterfall part, turn into the bat and use the Wing Smash move towards the waterfall and you will get through it, the item in there is the Osafune Katana. When you have the item jump down on one side when you land go to the other side and jump and gravity jump back up there. You should get a toadstool & Shiitake. Now jump back down and go through the room on the right bottom to get a Garnet. Now go through the door that is on the left bottom side. When through the door you will find a Bat Pentagram in the water area jump into the current so that you are on the platform and jump you should be able to get it.
Continue going left, you will encounter a Stone knight & one of the Venus ladies things. The best thing is to avoid them all together with the exception of mabey hitting the stone knight so that you get him in your enemy listing. You will see quite a few of them so just keep going through as the mist you will be at the end if you see a rock knight kill him to get him in your enemy list. Next go through the door on the left in this room you will see 1-2 rock knights kill them then go up into the water and do the same thing with the wolf to get the map coverage. You should get a potion & life max up while you are up there. You will encounter another rock knight and Venus weed and another place for you to use the wolf technique to get map coverage.
After that go to the left and encounter more Venus weeds & rock knights its best to skip this part with the mist. You will then come to a point where you can gravity jump into the water and explore in that area. You should have gotten a heart max up in that area. When you continue on go straight and you will find another shiitake. You should come across another Shiitake; you will have 2 choices to choose from in regarding the direction to go, the way I am going is straight, You should be in a room where you get to choose 3 ways go in the room that is straight and it is a save, save there.
Now that you have saved jump down the hole that will take you down. When you land go to the room on the left you should encounter some skeletons continue on. When you are in the other room you will find another skeleton and a heart max up in a vase. Going up you will find a balloon pod when you hit it, it will sprout out poisonous little pods that when you get hit you will be poisoned, use the shield to defeat these pests. When you get to the top and through the door into the other room you will find 5 pots destroy them all and you will get a meal ticket in all 5 of them. There are two doors the one on the left is a room where the nightmare was and the other is a save. Go to the room on the left and grab the peanut (the peanuts here keep coming back if you exit and come back exit and come back you know what I mean).
Go back and go down the tower when you go down the room on the left is a save the room on the right is a room that you get to choose directions go to the room on the right first.

Manna prism, Elixir, Force of Echo are items you should have gotten in that area of the castle now go back and go down and save so that you don't have to do that again if you die. Now go back up and go to the room on the left.
_______________________________________________
DOPPLEGANGER
The new and improved Copycat (thus the name doppleganger) this time he has more HP and attack and all the good stuff, you don't really need a strategy just avoid his rebound stone attack that will poison you. If you use any spells that attack he will turn into the mist and it will miss.
GOOD LUCK.
After defeating him you will of course get the usual life max up.
________________________________________________
After defeating him go through the door opposite of the one you came through. Remember this room this room is the one that you had to quickly go through because the water levels were increasing. Continue to go straight and receive a Zircon then use the bat/mist to get across the hole and get map experience!!! Now go down the hole, you should see 20-40 Dark octopuses you can kill every single one or just skip them but get the Pot roast in the vase on the left then go towards the right and into a room where you will receive a Dark Blade, equip the Dark Blade since it is significantly stronger, Now go back and save. After you have saved go to the door that is straight from where you just saved and keep going that direction until you see where there was a bridge (the part where you have to blow it up in the normal castle) go up there and you will be in the inverted underground.

=================================================
INVERTED UNDERGROUND
SUGGESTED LEVEL: 40
ITEMS: Eye of Vlad, power of sire X2, life apple, green tea, Alucard sword,
MONSTERS:
=================================================
Once you have gone through the door you will face Gaibon he only has 200 HP so you hit him once (assuming you took out 100 HP) he will turn into the mad mode and will be stronger (usually). There is a save at the top of the room. After you have saved go through the door that is to the left (it is in the mouth of the dog). IN this room you will face your other friend Slogra he is little bit easier hit him with your sword about 3 times and he should die. The next room will be a boss battle with Death, he is not that hard but he is a challenge.
_________________________________________________
DEATH
This is the guy who stole your equipment at the starting of the game now you can take revenge or just defeat him like a regular boss and just move on with the game.
For starters I would equip the holy sword because he is undead so the holy sword takes double the amount the dark sword would take out. First off Death's attack is having axes appear from thin air and come at you, you can destroy them with hitting them only do not use your shield for this. When you take out considerable damage he will do this summoning thing hit him with your holy sword and he will surely die since your holy sword does around 142 damage.
Don't you hate bosses with 2 forms? I do they are very annoying, so Death's second form is a gray thing with big scythe things. Dodge his attacks and hit him with the Holy sword, if you do not use the holy sword you are most likely going to take more time since the holy sword is very strong against undead. After defeating him you will get the eye of Vlad this gives you +10 luck.
_________________________________________________
Continue by going through the door on the left. In this room you have two choices going up and activating the switch with using the demon familiar. Change into the demon familiar and have him activate the switch, after he has activated the switch go through the door. You will encounter Slogra again hit him 3 times and he is defeated, then go to the other part and find 2 more Slogra's. In the next room you will find more Gaibon's go up and hit the wall to the right and you will find: Green tea, power of sire & life apple. Go back and when you get to the part where you can go up, go up. You should encounter lots of bats on your way up, now when you have gotten up here go right and you should find THE ALMIGHTY ALUCARD SWORD!! Equip this awesome and powerful sword then go back and go left instead of right you should find a teleport.
Now go to the opening that is on top, You should find 2 shiitake's now go to the door on the right and go through to the room, you should find a power of sire. Now go through the door to go through to the other room. When you gone through the door you should be in the inverted catacombs.

MONSTERS: Salome, Frozen half,
==============================================
When you saved you should see a door that leads to another room. You will get a magic missile, hit the wall by the magic missile and you will get a buffalo star. Now go back and go through the door that is on the left side. This room is pretty hard you have the stupid witches that when you get close to them they have this protective shield, for now you will have to avoid them. Now in the next room you will see lots of bats and two doors that you can go through go through the door that is on the left. In this room will see a Frozen half and a Salome (the witches) now go through the only door that you can and equip the spike breaker armor. After reaching the room that is past the spike pit, will encounter 2 blood skeletons and another Salome just pass them and you will come across 4 vases the bottom 2 have Karma coins in both of them the top ones have resist fire & thunder.
Now go up and go to the left you will find a Red bean bun, now go right and keep going right until you get to a wall. You will find an elixir & a Library card in the wall next to the elixir. Now go back to where you have two choices to pick from where all the bats where, go there and chose the other side.
When you have picked the other side you will see hordes of blood zombies after That room you will see a life max up & a heart max up. Then go to the other Room and find another Frozen half, now go to the next room and find more Skeletons and another frozen half. The next room will be where the discuss Lord was so therefore you can go down since there was a hole when you Fought him in the normal castle. You should get: attack potion, shield potion And a Necklace of J, this is one of the starting items that Death took from you. Now go back and go through the door that leads to the right. The next room includes more blood skeletons and another Frozen half, go to the other room and go to the first room you see you will find a lantern with a 1$ in it. Now go to the other rooms starting with the one that is on the left which is A save that you can go to the other side and get a diamond. Then go through The other door and equip this things that you should have.
Right hand: Alucard sword (optional)
Left hand: Alucard shield (suggested)
Head: Beryl circlet (NEEDED)
Body: Walk armor (suggested)
Cloak: doesn't matter
Other: Talisman (optional)
Other: Sunstone (optional)
The reason being that you need the Beryl circlet is because the Boss you fight Uses lightning so when that is equipped you will recover HP instead of losing It.
_________________GALAMOTH__________________
This battle can be easy but it will literally take 10 minutes for you to defeat the boss. When he does he shoots out balls out of his staff you need to dodge hat or you will take considerable damage, the best way to dodge the balls is to use the mist and fly up to his head and attack a couple times before you fall and start hacking at his feet. If you attack his feet with the Alucard sword you will take close to 33 damage, if you try to hit his head it will take more damage. After the battle you should get a life max up and in the process You should have gotten a level up. Now go to the right and there should be a door where you can go through and get the gas cloud & ruby circlet.
____________________________________________
Now that you have defeated the 2nd hardest boss now you leave the catacombs And the underground. The next place to go is the Royal Chapel go there.

You should be on the part of Orlox's quarters that connected you to the Royal Chapel if you are not then you are probably going to get confused on the Directions.
First off you are in a hallway with Cthilu & flying zombies, but do you remember where you got the sword familiar? It is in the same spot as you got it last time, it is in this room on the ground next to where you just came from but on the ground. you should find a heart refresh, do not use this heart refresh you have to get this certain item first. Now continue on with the hallway. You should get a life max up, when you get to the main room I want you like last time to explore this meaning I want you to fly around and getting the map coverage don't go into any rooms while doing this.
After exploring go to the room that is in the middle on the left side it is a Save, then go to the room that is on the left but above the save you should Get Alucard mail, it isn't stronger than the walk armor but it is resistant to Fire, lightning & ice. Now you can go to the room that is on the bottom right Side you will be in a boss battle. The items you need to make this battle go Lot quicker is the topaz circlet and have the holy water or bibuti.
________________AKMODAN II______________
This boss is one of the easier one, once you hit him poison will come Out that is why the topaz circlet is the key to winning this boss & the Holy water or bibuti is so that you use it when he comes out and it takes lots of damage since he is very slow when it comes to moving. You shouldn't have much of a hassle with him. After defeating him you should get the rib of Vlad.
_________________________________________________

Next would be Grant he is usually On the wall so you have to jump high in order to attack him with your sword. After Grant you will have to face Trevor he is the harder one he will throw Shurikens at you and has a long whip attack. Use your sub weapon, spells and Your normal attack to take the most damage out of them. You will get a life Max up after defeating them.
CONGRADULATIONS you just need to defeat the last guy!!!!

ITEMS: Heart refresh,
MONSTERS: Shaft & Dracula
======================================================
The last guy is located in where the "clock" is go there. When you get to the place it will activate like it did in the last castle you Needed to have the 5 treasures of Vlad in order to get to the last guy. Jump up and go to the room that is on the left and get another heart Refresh, then go to the other room and save. After saving equip everything That you have that is your best equipment because you are going to need it, in Order to defeat the end bosses.

IDEAS
Strongest sword
Best shield
Best helmet
Best armor
Best cloak
Best optional
Best sub weapon (you can find all of the subweapons where you got the gravity boots. And
Best familiar
The Faerie would be a good choice since you wouldn't have to use the potions To heal yourself. After you have decided that go up the elevator by pressing Up. If you are close to leveling up (like 1500 or less) go train with the Knights that are on the left and right of this area, by doing that you can get The benefit from the level up right now instead of when you are battling Shaft. After doing so go up the elevator. When you get up there you can go Left or right go in one direction, then when you get close to the hole go back And go to the opposite side so that you get the map coverage.
____________________SHAFT_______________________
This battle isn't too hard he uses lots of elemental attacks so if you can see It quick enough you can pause and change into the circlet of that element And you will be healed, the Gas cloud does not work on him or the next boss, So don't try it.
________________________________________________
After defeating Shaft you will of course have to defeat DRACULA the evil of all evil.
____________________DRACULA__________________
This battle is a medium to hard. It is just like the Galamoth battle it will take some time for you to defeat Dracula. You could use the Shield rod + Alucard shield and do the cheap way. Or you could attack him with the Holy sword which should take out good amount of damage, using spells is helpful especially the soul steal spell, use that spell when low on life (around 150 HP).
GOOD LUCK
After defeating Dracula you will see a movie and see of course the boring Credits.
GOOD JOB!!!!!!
PART II RICHTER BELMONT
===============================================
INTRODUCTION TO RICHTER BELMONT XI
===============================================
This description comes from the booklet if you still have it.
"Every generation of the Belmont clan has produced tougher, more dedicated vampire hunters-yet Richter stands above all others. Brandishing the legendary sacred whip which so many of his predecessors wielded, this hot-blooded youth pushed Dracula to the brink. Then, with an almost indestructible will to survive and emerge victorious, Richter defeated Dracula in a massive battle five years ago. However, he has been missing for a year, -vanishing mysteriously under the light of a full moon."

================================================
RICHTERS SPECIAL WEAPONS XII
================================================
Richter's special weapons are the sub weapons which happen to be the same as Alucard's. Except that Richter can do a super attack that makes the sub Weapon stronger, for example the knife sub weapon you throw one knife per heart with Richter using the super attack will throw about 300+ knives at a time and keep throwing for about 3-6 seconds.
