how the ♥♥♥♥ do you beat dracula in CV1

[succ]

i know the tactic, i have the timing down but when he spawns ontop of you, you can't escape in time not to get hit, seems like a broken fight

[Desticler]

I suggest you stay in the middle of the arena to have the most time to react to him spawning on top of you. Helped me.

[Nacht der Frösche]

Do what Desticler suggested and try bringing a holy water and a +2 item. If you are missing a +2 there is a way to farm those items (just look it up). Holy water and a +2 item can stunlock Dracula pretty easily.

When Dracula disappears, stop moving for half a second, then move forward. He will usually reappear where you were standing still. Just don't walk into him if he appears in front of you, instead.
