Dual Crush

Dual Crushes, also known as "Dual Crashes", are very powerful attacks involving two casters. They will combine their powers to cast a powerful spell. The Dual Crushes appear in two games: Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin, and Castlevania: Harmony of Despair.

They are the most powerful type of attack in both games they appear in. The primary casters are Jonathan Morris and Charlotte Aulin, although in Harmony of Despair the other characters are capable of casting a Dual Crush.

Portrait of Ruin

 * Rush - A basic Dual Crush. Johnathan and Charlotte will quickly strike in front of them multiple times.
 * Holy Lightning - Summons lightning in the shape of a cross.
 * Axe Bomber - An attack from both sides.
 * 1,000 Blades - One of the most useful attacks. Rapidly shoots daggers forward.
 * Volcano - Summons a volcano. Rocks will erupt from the volcano, and fly down the edges of the screen.
 * Meteor - Summons a massive meteor that rolls down the screen and does massive damage to everything onscreen.
 * Grand Cruz - The well known Grand Cross attack. Does massive damage to nearby targets, but no effect on distant opponents.
 * Divine Storm - An attack most commonly known for its use by Richter. The duo will summon holy water to rain down on the screen and damage everything.
 * Dark Gate - A less useful attack that strikes above and below the player. A massive green demon's hands will appear, and he will pull open a massive gate, dealing heavy damage. However, it suffers due to it's element, darkness.
 * The Greatest Five - The most powerful attack in the game. The duo will summon the 5 greatest Belmonts to attack, and they will damage everything on screen, often dealing 1000 damage.
