10 Final Bosses That Made You Give Up Entirely

5. Dracula - Castlevania: Circle Of The Moon

Circle of the Moon concludes with vampire killer, Nathan Graves, duking it out with Dracula, which is pretty standard for the Castlevania series. However, defeating The Prince of Darkness has never been this brutal. 

After Nathan seemingly wins, Drac transports the whip-wielding warrior to The Sealed Room before transforming into a monstrous creature. 

Despite his immense size, the Transylvanian bloodsucker's weakpoint is tiny, so even the most outlandish strikes can miss him. The Count hovers high above the ground, so Nate can't hit him unless he climbs onto a platform. This platform is incredibly small, so Nathan will plummet below, if he's attacked while standing on it.

Dracula can also shield his vulnerable spot with ooze, making it extra tricky to injure him. When he surrounds himself with bats, it's nearly impossible to hit him without sustaining damage.

Although Dracula blasts Nathan with lasers and meteors, his most devastating projectile is... himself. If he charges into Nathan, our holy champion is as good as dead unless he's at full health. And since Dracula will perform this lethal charge over and over, Nathan has to dodge it every single time to avoid an early grave.
