== Relic Skip & Final Battle ==
Once in the Black Marble Gallery, make your way to the Clock Room, then proceed right past the Giant enemies and upward to a ledge that is just to the right of a Save Room. This ledge is where you will perform the [[Relic Skip]] glitch.
=== Heart Refresh Relic Skip ===
# Equip Heart Refresh
# Move into the correct position on the ledge and face to the left
# Walk to the right immediately followed by activating the Heart Refresh (at this point you should be able to visually confirm whether or not your positioning was correct)
# While the Heart Refresh animation is playing, hold down the Dash button and don't let go until Alucard Dashes after the Heart Refresh animation finishes
# Walk to the left into the Save Room
# As soon as the second Black Screen appears, hold down the Bat Transform button (if you don't see the flicker of a second Black Screen, start over from step 2)
# Let go of the Bat Transform button once you are repositioned into the ceiling of the room below the Save Room
# Perform six consecutive chained Wing Smashes while flying in the ceiling to the left
# As the sixth Wing Smash finishes and Alucard untransforms, hold Up and to the Left while mashing the Jump button (if at any point you are forced out of the ceiling, start over from step 2)
# Keep mashing the Jump button until the flickering stops and you are forced into the other Save Room just outside of the lift that leads to Dracula's chambers
Once you have successfully executed the [[Relic Skip]], equip Buffalo Stars in both your hand slots and take the lift up into Dracula's chambers. After exiting the lift, fly up and around the barriers and drop into Dracula's chambers to begin the fight with Shaft. Position yourself along the left wall and alternate using both Buffalo Stars while jumping to finish Shaft as quickly as possible.
Once Shaft is defeated, the cutscene and final fight with Dracula will begin. Stay in the middle of the room as Dracula descends, and focus alternating Buffalo Star attacks at his right hand. Dracula will attempt to swipe at you with either his left hand or his right hand, depending on which one you are closer to. Once you see his body shift in position to prepare the attack, move to the opposite side from that attack just enough to clear it. Do this a few times while spamming Buffalo Star attacks at his right hand, and you should be able to kill Dracula before his next phase begins.
