I got 100% on Castlevania: Aria of sorrow. 8-)
Um, it's been a while since i've beaten it though. :hmm:

I think you have to have an item to remove the
black mist door. You'll fight Julius Belmont and then
you go to the Chaos world. You only can get there
after you beat Graham.


Here is how to get there. ;)

You will want to have the Claim Solias for this fight or some other large sword that attacks in an arc. I recommend using the Death soul to get in some cheapshots when you aren't close enough to Graham to attack. I also recommend using either the Headhunter soul to boost your stats or the Succubus soul to heal yourself while fighting (Succubus is also very helpful dunring his second form). You can use any bullet soul you want but the Red Minotour one is the best but just make sure you have a lot of High Mind Ups or the Choas Ring if you are going to use this soul. Graham's first form is exactly like all of Drac's first forms. He will teleport around the room and and shoot 3 small fireballs, just jump over these and attack his head. He will also shoot 2 large fireballs one high and one low just jump over the low one and duck under the high one while trying to get close enough to hit him. He will also shoot a series of them all high just duck and slide to get close enough to hit him. After you inflict enough damage he will teleport to the center of the room and start release 3 giant fireballs that will move in a spiral pattern and he will release another set when the set before it gets close to the edge of the screen. Just jump and duck when appropriate to dodge the fireballs while staying close enough to Graham to hit his head.

Graham's second form is very easy especially if you are using the Death and Succubus souls. All you have to do is position your self under one of the two female heads while facing Graham in the center. Now you want to duck and attack has many times with the Claim Solias until the "skull cloud" postion itself above you then slide under the other head and start to attack Graham again until the "cloud" is above you again. Just repeat this pattern until Graham is defeated.

If you have the Succubus, Flame Demon and Giant Bat souls equipped, you'll be able to continue the game. Once you beat Julius and make your way through the Chaos Realm, you'll fight the true last boss. Chaos isn't too hard. Tie first form will steal all of your souls - the statues will occasionally turn into a beast that charges after you. Just dodge this and hack at the states as they rotate.

After this part, your targets are the four eyes at the corners of the screen. Just dodge the snake and daggers that fly out from the center. This also isn't very hard, but the attack do inflict a large portion of damage, so just have your potions ready. After you beat Graham, you get Dracula's
Cloak. 8-)

Hope this help's. 8-)

Yup, what was given is what you need to see the best ending. There are three (really, four) endings to the game, though. See them all. 8-)
