How to get Alucard's Sword and Shield

Quick answer

Alucard's Sword and Shield wait in Alucard's sealed chambers at the top of a hidden tower in the Main Hall. Enter through the Alucard portrait in the Entrance Corridor, climb past the upward-pointing Alucard portrait, put out all five blue flames, then return to the top of the tower to open his room.

Open Alucard's room

Reveal solution / story details

Both walkthroughs describe attacks that move Rose toward enemies as she strikes, and a shield that blocks hits from the front. The pickup card in the launch-build clip below lists the pair as Legendary with 100 ATK, which matches one walkthrough; some guides list 33, so check the number on your own equipment screen.

  1. With all five flames out, climb back to the shrine at the top of the tower and interact with it to open the way up.
