Castlevania: Circle of the Moon Sub-Weapons and Power-ups
Dagger
The Dagger is thrown rapidly in a straight line. It does minute damage, but is useful for quickly dispatching weak foes from a distance. It strikes only once, but Nathan can throw them in succession very swiftly. It is immediately stopped by whatever it hits, be it a wall, enemy, or some other object.
Heart Cost: 1
Holy Water
A vial of Holy Water is thrown at the floor, and when the bottle breaks open, a hallowed flame spouts out to repeatedly sear creatures of darkness. The Holy Water doesn't have much range to it, but it strikes continually and can effectively be used as a trap for moving enemies, while it devastates stationary foes. However, it is ineffective against airborne enemies.
Heart Cost: 4
Axe
The axe is thrown in an arcing upward motion, which is great for destroying foes that are overhead. It does moderate damage, has the potential to strike more than once on one enemy, and isn't stopped by anything, giving it the ability to hack through multiple foes. This is the ideal weapon of choice against aerial menaces.
Heart Cost: 2
Stop Watch
This item will freeze enemies in time for 10 seconds, rendering them immobile. It demands a hefty some of hearts to use, though.
Heart Cost: 20
Cross
The Cross is the most well rounded sub-weapon, and it has the potential to deal the most damage. Nathan throws it forward like the Dagger, though it doesn't have as much range or speed. It will return to Nathan like a boomerang, isn't stopped by anything, and it can hover over foes for a short while, scoring heavy damage.
Heart Cost: 20
