That rapid dagger throwing is almost like an item crash actually.

Am so glad this video exists. I remember people debating if it was even possible without stunlocking him or using an absorb equipment.

What me and my siblings used to do was harder than this. We had no manual for this game back then so we didnt know about any spells or tricks, so we would equip a weapon with a fast attacking animation and kneel next to galamoth and slice up his legs. If we ran out of food and medicine to heal with then it was game over lol.

that mini demon doing much of the work contributing 15 point of damage the whole game

Lol at Alucard having to throw the food on a dirty bloody floor to eat it.

The curse of being tall: Enemies must attack your ankles.

Actually he has 10,000 HP

impressive. you memorized galamoth's movements

Alucard's Soul Steal is like the Castlevania's equivalent to Sabin's Blitz command

Dude! Thank you so much! I was hitting my head against the wall dying to this guy over and over. I didn't realize you could bait the lightning attack like that to stand between his legs and punish him. This video was a life saver, thanks man.

im glad i wasnt the only one who thought that the mist was a good idea

Wait, he’s a super boss!? Jesus Christ! I managed to beat him, but I remember thinking how unusually tough this guy was!

Even without knowing anything about that Game you should have notice that 1 DMG from that Throwing Knifes leads to carpal tunnel syndrome before hes Dead xD

Unlike dracula galamoth gives you more of a challenge that's why respect galamoth more than dracula.

This is the creative way to fight him!

I agree. This is the toughest boss in SOtN; I had the crissaegrim sword when I fought him and I was out of healing items when I won the fight.

Iirc, I was lucky enough on my first playthrough to get an item that absorb lightening damage so his most dangerous attacks basically does nothing but heal me

Awesome. I never even thought to use the mist to dodge in boss battles in this game.

1:12 Galamoth: OH MY GOD, MY LEG! MY PRECIOUS LEG!!

probably my favorite Boss in SOTN

to be honest fighting Galamoth with even the Alucard sword is pretty tough. but since he's meant to be the biggest challenge in the game I really never really want to fight him any other way. having to use all my healing items and equipment to barely get a win is pretty satisfying

Nice! Love how you were very creative no beryl circlet nor the dark resistant circlet

Nice reflexes. That fast reaction mist-form made this possible.

Galamoth is my favorite Castlevania villain. They need to bring him back!

Caralho esse chefe é mais difícil que o Dracula

Epic battle! lol I think I couldn't endure that much, physically and mentally.

How are you in mist form for that long? Mine runs out in 1 second....

It helps if you have the Beryl Circlet equiped which allows you to absorb the lighting. Also if you find Alucard sheild, the real one, in the inverted underground cavern, you can use it's special ability when you have the mablung sword equiped or just use the sheild rod. This is for if you don't have the crissigrim.

Woah. Those knife throwing skills...

@ehcastro3 I dont read the walkthrough for bosses so I didnt know that Galamoth is the hardest boss in the game. I dont even know about the shield rod trick back then. I dont remember what weapons I used. When I was fighting Galamoth I was shocked at the huge damage he does and I keep healing myself using whatever is in my inventory. My brothers and I were on the edge of our beds at 3am. Well I managed to beat him and finish the game.

Alucard: That Good Old Galamoth! You've got bigger but you still no match to my bloodline. Galamoth: Kid Dracula? You have grown up. But this time I will triumph. Alucard: Taking Advantage of my father's absence again, huh? Galamoth: Once your father is revived...I will devour him. Alucard: You can barely stand against me. You stand no chance against him. Galamoth: We shall see about that, son of the dragon. (After the fight) Galamoth: N...No...Not again! Alucard: That makes 2 or 3 victories for me? I can't remember. Anyway, farewell again! Galamoth: GUHAAAAAAARGH!

True gamer...

very nicely done

... cheap tricks? You mean "throwing projectiles one at a time that only do 1 damage"? Oh, so cheap.

All I did was backdash when he stuck his wand out to do hit lightning attack, change into a bat, and fly over his wand in front of his face. Then I would change back to regular form and hit the crap out of him with the alucard sword. I repeated that until he was dead. One thing to note is the spacing is pretty important because you don't want him to back you into a corner. I didn't even think to use mist form. That would probably have allowed me to kill him even faster.

Ways of beating Galamoth; Soon as it lightning rains do gravity jump to get behind its back and hit its legs. If you have alucard sword or osafune you can spam its special attack to be invincible while dealing good dmg. By the time you arrive Galamoth you should have enough mp Alucard Shield+Rod and Beryl Circlet Strategies are self explanatory You can bug it like speedrunners do. While he rises when you first enter room go behind is back to the top surface layer. And hit its head. He keeps bouncing his head back and forth although I m not sure if you need a rapid weapon like crissaegrim

Well played! 👏

loooooool this is so dope for some reason

Been playing this for about a week now. After dying twice to Galamoth I found a super easy way to kill him. Equip the ghost familiar and fly up to the mid ledge on the right side of the screen. Galamoth walks right up to your face and gets stun locked with you slicing at his face and the ghost attacking him. it took me forever, but eventually he died.

Good job, you have skills man!

Thanks for the information!

So could anyone tell me what the secret boots are good for?

I fought him the hard way and right as i was about to die for the 20th time my little demon familiar got one last hit on him with the thunder spear and killed him and completely saved my ass lol ive never been so happy and proud of that familiar.

This IS the hard way, but maybe not the hardest. I've tried it naked with all relics turned off and I failed miserably. Using the Beryl Circlet has to be the ultimate cheap move vs Galamoth- stand right underneath his scepter and let his lightning massively heal you. Crissaegrim or Shield Rod + Alucard Shield are both cheap tactics too. Felt like a total badass beating him with Richter though. God bless Item Crash.

in the clock tower the room where the wall breaks then you have to fight the 2 armor fleas then hes in the loft just keep jumping up and killing him until you get it. I was obsessed to see what everyone had. And was lucky to get that sword. Also the best item in the game is the ring of Varda witch you get from the golden lookin skeletons in the colosium the have a big bone they hit you with. Hes at the vey botton of the colosium by two skeletons and a invisible sword lady. Item is extremly rare

I heard like a " Diee!" too, lol.

I remember using the Holbein Dagger a Lesser Demon dropped, but the range was very short, and I died five times before using the Alucard Sword

I don't remember what I did to beat this guy back in the day, but I played it yesterday and it took me a long time. I died twice and the fairy resurrected me. At some point during the fight I accidentily turned into fog and realized I could avoid all damage. I pretty much just kept doing that then attacking the legs with whatever the best sword I had. At some point I did get him stuck over in the right corner and he just sat there while I attacked repeatedly. It took so damn long I started wondering if I wasn't attacking him in the right spot. He eventually did die though.

Its harder to watch trying to do soul steal a lot of times to no avail lol

Oreo, I liked your video, but why did you use items on him? Specially the Power of Sire, which is limited.

You guys wont believe me but 10 years ago my memory card broke and most of my games are RPGs (I have Breath of FIre 3 and FF8 and Grandia) Lacking in cash I have to wait 2 days to buy a new memory card. SInce this is the only game that can be finished quicker than those, I tried to play this without saving (actually me and my brothers finished this like 3x but didnt reach Inverted castle.) SO I tried to finish inverted castle w/o saves FOR THE FIRST TIME.

@ehcastro3 Also, when I reached Inverted Castle I thought that since everything is inverted (and the entrance of Inverted Castle is the 'last stage' of the normal castle) I thought the ending area of the game will be in the area where Castlevania's gates are. I didn't know that the last area will be where you get the glasses in the normal castle. I had a blast back then. Too bad I cannot prove it except y'all take my word that it really happened :)

yup galamoth's a badass. and you weren't kidding about doing it the HARD way god daMN...but at least it was more interesting than watchin some hot shot rape bosses with the crissagrim and shield rod/Al.shield. in further news, people don't realize the importance and epic properties of this game.

I defeated him using the Obsidian Sword, healing potion and Mana Prisma. I waited for him to do that lightning attack on the floor by his foot using the Mist Form, so when it was over, I would return to human for and struck him with the sword as many times as possible. When the mana was over to use Mist, I used Mana Prist. When I got accidentally hit, I used healing potion. After around 8 minutes, he was down =)

holy shit so good reactions, 6:32 was pro o.O

How did u do mist like that?

Beryl circlet is the way to go

And that, my friend, is why I'm doing a Fist Weapons only playthrough. =p ( I'm not recording it, so don't even bother clicking my channel if you want to watch it. )

Best weapon against Galamoth (Shield Rod + Alucard Shield)

I could've gotten killed a hundred times, trying to defeat that huge boss. That takes a LOT of hits to get rid of him!

lol @ 1:20 the demon familiar trying to help out *poke poke poke*

Damn, I would've tried it the hard way if I knew you could stay longer in the mist form... Been using that just to get through the bars by tapping the button.

Awesome boss is awesome.

i used to bring a ton of healing potions and mana potions when fighting this guy, before I discovered the lightning regenerate HP item

I went behind his back and got him bugged trying to kick me while I afk slashed him with 40 damage per slash, it took him a while to die but it was fairly easy for a first try.

Osafune katana your invisible during its special attack animation. It was the only way we knew how to beat him before KZfaq lol I wonder if anyone else has used that tactic

thoghest boss in the game

the crissagrim is the best sword you get it from the flying heads in the inverted libarary. the best swords is kill the flying swordsman he drops to swords one is a flamberge the other is a heaven sword or somthing like that its a throwing sword that comes back very cool. Any way get two of them and equip them both and press both buttons at the same time and it does a special attack witch is super bad ass. the flamberge is rare the heaven sword more rare two takes forever, the best spot is

The best way I found to rack up damage on him without any OP weapons/items was to wait for the lightning storm, then super jump through the wand and repeatedly stomp his head. But no part of that is easy. The hitbox is really finicky. You have to stomp in between the horn and the head to not get hit, and if you do get hit, you'll be knocked into the lightning storm which means you'll have to mist the second you touch the ground. It really is the fastest way to damage him without the best equipment though, if you can pull it off.

1 damage galamoth kill is the most manly thing ever

Is there a "not hard" version that implies not using the topaz circlet?

Oh that's a tough bastard there. Which resists lightning more? The lightning mail or the alucard mail?

you've got some excellent reflexes avoiding those hits, but you have a hard time getting soul steal out, ha.

I JUST RECENTLY downloaded this game. Kinda a "Bucket List" game I always wanted to play. Last night I got stuck on this guy. I tried several methods, and I had not yet gotten the circlet to reverse electricity. I did learn about the mist causing no damage. So finally, I noticed if he lowers the rod and uses electricity, it will knock you back between his legs. Then, you'll be behind them. I was fortunate enough to be able to mist up to the ledge at the right time to where I could hit him in the head. Every time his head is hit, you could spam it because he would stop. So I just kept spamming it for about 3 and a half minutes. I was very lucky.

All I used was the Crissaegrim. Nothing more nothing less

I won this boss almost just like you. I was trying to get in between his legs, but he kicked me and i started hitting him with the sword. Basically, he was trying to walk, but i constantly stopped his walking animation just like you, but instead of throwing knives, i hitted him with Alucard's sword. My fingers hurted.... It almost seemed like it wasn't working because he has too much HP.

ten birrion daggers

The best way to kill Galamoth is to 1. have a Power of Sire and duplicator 2. Alucard Shield with Shield Rod unless you don't have because it's not easy to find these weapons. 3. Go up to the second floor and use Alucard sword/attack him when he goes near you.

@OreoTheWolf lol? thats a huge part, can save you quiet a few deaths with good equipment. special effects too it takes like 10 seconds to equip something better

@OreoTheWolf just how long does it take to kill this boss? I mean JESUS!! you've been beating on him for a while now and 8 minutes passed

Thanks!

Honestly better than what I did when I was 12

i love fight galamoth in the hard way

the band?

Try being Alucart and fighting him, did that about 2 days ago. One hell of a battle.

This one of the worst bosses I ever fought in my life. The reasons here: 1.The hitbox. 2.You cant fight him the normal way because most of his attacks are almost impossible to dodge. 3.It has 12.000 hp. 4.You do so little damage to him it feels that you do nothing to him. 5.He just keeps moving non stop without a pause so it makes him impossible to hit. 6. He can corner you very easy. 7.You can use the mist to dodge him, yeah. But once you are at the back, his lightning attack is done and can screw you over. I know most people will say to get good, but this is not even good to begin with. The only way to beat is by using the powerful sword (I forgot the name) and damage boost him in the end. The ds castlevania games have bosses with random pattern. But at least there they have telegraphs in there fight and attacks that can be dodged and their are fun. This is just horrible desinged.

i went to this fight blind. Oh my god... It was HOURS OF DYING ALMOST immediately. Horrifying fight. I won and i don't know even how anymore.

Mist up to the top right platform, keep swinging at his head. Any weapon any familiar but the fairy. It's not cheap it's simple.

im curious, has anyone attempted a tyrfing, ring of ares, luck mode run with 0 defense and no max hp ups or healing? :O

No Problem.

i killed him yesterday in a hard way too, like that, but without using itens of hearth (like dagger) because i was holding the clock... that's why i am here today

@piromaniac9999 This guy needs nearly 12 seconds to die while sapping out his health at 255 every 1/2 second with the Alucard shield. Take a guess.

Easily the hardest boss ever.

Easiest way to kill galamoth, let him dohis lightning, mist in between his legs, hack away, repeat. you take no damage, and kill him in less then 2 minutes.

@D2Synua yes you can...

once galamoth can not move, I do not know how I did it !! if anyone know ?

Who the hell is this guy? Death was nothing but this optional boss make me use everything in my inventory only to have a risky opportunity

I believe he said its hard way because nearly everyone uses the noob Shield Rod + Alucard Shield tactics; BUT, when I'm looking for some fun I avoid using Crissaegrim.

I was so terrible with Galamoth that I beat the game, then beat Galamoth 20 in-game hours later.

is more harder than Dracula final form
