Optimal

Notes:

  • Hold the jump button to prevent Simon from moving while whipping diagonally
  • At 1:04 to 1:05 you can hear the transition from the dying noise to none, this is the cue to jump three times (2 in place and 1 forward)

Jay_Cee Death Strat

Boss: Dracula

Optimal

Notes:

  • A standard clean fight with good spawns will be average around 6 (best) to 7 cycles.

Insanely Optimal

5 Cycle Dracula

Notes:

  • 5 cycle is not that easy to pull off!! It requires knowledge of diagonal whip cancels and good spawns.
  • This method with the diagonal whip works well since it is easy to release one of the directions to cancel the whip.
  • To get a 5 cycle you are required to get 6 whips in for one cycle.
