What is the Muramasa? ***************************************************************************** The Muramasa is a two-handed sword with an automatic blood healing ability; as long as it is equipped, any enemies that bleed on Alucard will heal him for 8 HP. It can be obtained as a rare drop from either a Vandal Sword in the Clock Tower or from a Scarecrow in the Forbidden Library. When first found it has -5 ATT, and it reduces Alucard’s DEF by 4. It will sometimes jam when swung if Alucard’s ATT is 10 or less, and it is quite slow at first. Once Alucard’s overall ATT is 30 or more, the speed and vertical range of the Muramasa will see an increase. As Alucard is healed by enemies’ blood, the ATT of the Muramasa will begin to grow. This means the Muramasa has the potential to be the strongest weapon in the game, maxing out at 999 ATT. ***************************************************************************** 2. How is the ATT Growth Determined? ***************************************************************************** As the Muramasa grows stronger, the number of blood heals needed to raise its ATT an additional point increases. To determine how many blood heals it will need to reach the next ATT point, double its current ATT and add 11: (Muramasa’s Current ATT x 2) + 11 = # of blood heals needed to increase Muramasa’s ATT by 1 For example, if the Muramasa has 5 ATT, it would take 21 blood heals to increase the ATT to 6. It would then take 23 heals to increase the ATT to 7, and so on. ***************************************************************************** 3. How Many Blood Heals Does it Take to Max the Muramasa’s ATT? ***************************************************************************** Maxing the Muramasa from -5 ATT to 999 ATT requires 1,008,016 blood heals. This is calculated by finding the sum of the arithmetic series: 998 SIGMA (2n + 11) = 1,008,016 n = -5 It should be noted that, because STR also factors into Alucard’s overall ATT, a player will maximize their overall damage output at 999 before the Muramasa’s base ATT is 999. For example, if Alucard has 70 STR, he will be outputting 999 damage as soon as the Muramasa reaches 929 ATT. In this example, the player will see 999 damage after 872,356 blood heals, but the Muramasa is still not technically maxed. (See the chart in Section 6. for all of the compiled math) ***************************************************************************** 4. Transferring Muramasa’s ATT To a New Game ***************************************************************************** So, why bother going the extra mile to max the Muramasa’s base ATT to 999 if you will be seeing 999 damage output far sooner due to the STR stat? Because it is possible to transfer the Muramasa’s ATT to a new game! To do this, first load the game containing a Muramasa that you want to copy. Next, perform a soft reset by holding Start + Select. Now, start a new game and obtain the Muramasa. The game will transfer the ATT from the original save to the new one. Save your game to make the glitch permanent. Now, let’s go back to the previous example: An Alucard with 70 STR grows his Muramasa just until his overall damage output is 999 (meaning the Muramasa really has a base ATT of 929). If he transfers this Muramasa’s ATT to a new game, his STR will likely be quite a bit lower than 70 when he first finds the sword (it can easily be obtained by Level 20), and he will no longer be attacking for the full 999 with the transferred Muramasa. Therefore, it can be worth it to go that extra mile and maximize the Muramasa’s base ATT on the original save so that future saves may reap the full benefits while at lower levels. ***************************************************************************** 5. What is the Fastest Way to Accumulate Blood Heals? ***************************************************************************** When swinging the Muramasa as fast as possible, one can achieve around 75 blood heals per minute, or about 4,500 an hour. At this rate, it will take around 225 hours of continuous sword hacking to accumulate the necessary 1,008,016 blood heals. Alucard will reach Level 99 first, at around 600K kills. This can be automated using a turbo controller. The best place to do so is in the Black Marble Gallery just northeast of Dracula, where respawing Medusas only attack from one direction. The fastest method is to find the Dark Octopus room in the Reverse Caverns, where the enemies never stop respawning. By throwing the Dagger sub-weapon rapidly, one can accumulate blood heals much faster than by simply swinging the Muramasa. Equip the Blood Cloak to keep Alucard’s stock of Hearts high, and the Bloodstone to help keep his HP up. Also, equip anything that will lower INT, such as the Duplicator, to keep the enemies alive and bleeding longer. It should be noted that the Bloodstone does not make the Muramasa grow any faster. Even using this method, it is quite a timely task. ***************************************************************************** 6. Muramasa ATT Growth Reference Chart ***************************************************************************** For reference, this chart illustrates exactly how many blood heals are required to raise the Muramasa’s ATT at any given point in its growth. It also illustrates exactly how many total blood heals the Muramasa will have accumulated at any given point in its growth. When determining what ATT the Muramasa is currently at, remember not to include Alucard’s STR. Column A = Muramasa’s current ATT (excluding the effects of STR) Column B = Number of blood heals needed to raise the Muramasa’s ATT by 1 Column C = Total number of blood heals accumulated *If you are having difficulty with the chart’s format, you may need to adjust the tabs settings on your device* A B C -5 1 0 -4 3 1 -3 5 4 -2 7 9 -1 9 16 0 11 25 1 13 36 2 15 49 3 17 64 4 19 81 5 21 100 6 23 121

***************************************************************************** 7. Comments, Credits, and Copyrights ***************************************************************************** I was originally inspired to write this guide because I was unable to find a lot of the information online, specifically in regards to concrete numbers. I ended up doing a ton of research and even maxed my own Muramasa. Furthermore, I have seen a few misconceptions regarding the growth rate formula; some people seem to think it is (2x + 10), and many think it is (2x + 12). The correct formula for the growth rate is (2x + 11). I have personally tested these numbers and they are 100% correct. I have never seen a concrete number given as far as the total number of blood heals required and was happy to finally arrive at an answer and clear up the misconceptions. First and foremost, I would like to thank CoreyOTM from Hoverview. His YouTube video provided a kick-off point for me by providing a lot of very useful information and strategies. While he decided to use the Mermen to max his Muramasa, he also provided the superior Medusa location, as well as the Dark Octopus strategy. Furthermore, his failure to calculate the total number of blood heals sparked an interest in me to solve the problem. I highly recommend his video, but it should be noted that he used the wrong growth rate. I would also like to thank fellow FAQ writer Mike Truitt for his own Muramasa guide. While his growth rate is also wrong, he provided one of the few references available to me while writing this guide. I want to thank GameFAQs user Jinzoningen_73 for his post regarding the Muramasa ATT save transfer glitch, which was the first I had heard of it. Finally, I want to thank my personal friends Jim Krumhansl and Joey Jaworski for their help with the math and spreadsheet respectively.
