Castlevania III's unique selling point is its diverse cast of playable characters, each with distinct strengths and weaknesses. Understanding how to best use each character and which 'builds' (character combinations) are most effective is key to conquering Dracula's Curse. There isn't a traditional 'build' system with skill trees, but rather strategic character switching and sub-weapon choices.
This section will detail each character's abilities, recommend optimal sub-weapons for them, and discuss effective team compositions for various challenges.
