Alucard uses Swords as his Main and Support Weapons in Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls.
The basic type of sword has a five attack combo. First, Alucard swings across in front of him, then he swings across in front of him in the other direction, then he steps forward and swings in an overhead direction, next he steps and thrusts forward, and finally he spin jumps forward and targets foes in front of him for extra heavy damage.
There are five basic kinds of sword attack skills, each with its own variants. These include the Heavy Pain, Decisive Strike, Sonic Edge, Rising Crush, and Grand Slash. The Alucard Sword has a unique special attack skill with the same name. The Gold Pipe has a special rapid-fire attack skill, Coin Throw. Some swords have the ability to buff the attacking power of Alucard and his allies using an Attack Up skill.
