Double Jump Reset

Normally, if Alucard has the Leap Stone, he can only perform a single jump while in mid-air and must land on the ground before regaining the ability to jump again. However, if Alucard has a transformation relic (such as Soul of Wolf or Form of Mist) in addition to the Leap Stone, he can regain the ability to jump in mid-air over and over again. This allows Alucard to clear certain gaps if performed correctly.

It involves alternating between jumping in the air while near a ceiling, then transforming and untransforming while still colliding with the ceiling to regain the ability to jump in mid-air. Colliding with the ceiling is a crucial part of the Double Jump Reset. In order to regain the ability to perform the Jump mid-air, you must be colliding with the ceiling during the end of the untransform animation when Alucard changes back to his normal form.
