The main obstacles of this last stage are getting the triple shot axe from double shot holy water and not losing the setup needed to do so to birds, and the Dracula boss fight. Heart management is also crucial since Alucard uses up a lot of them when flying and you have to kill three forms of Dracula. '''3This is especially true with stage A's current most optimal route!''' forms of Dracula.

:* (todo)Walk up to the sixth block on the floor, counting from your left, and whip him while standing on the ground. This actually registers a hit before he stands up. Then jump upwards and whip him, and throw an axe at his head while you descend from your jump. Repeat this until he has 1 point of health left, then let his fire attack hit you, then hit him one last time before he teleports to the middle of the screen. <br /> '''If he does manage to teleport away, then the second phase of the fight will be completely different from what's in most strategy guides!'''
