Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/Thief

Thief is the the last mode, and is generally much less aggravating than the previous one. You have the lowest HP, MP, Hearts, strength, defense, and intelligence of any mode. What you do have a lot of is luck (to illustrate this, the VampireKiller has a luck of 1080 at level 99; the thief will reach 1080 luck at level 4). This means that enemies drop items at a tremendously high rate. Most drops will reach their caps (50% chance for common drops, 25% chance for rare drops) and if you max out your luck even the rarest drops (Wight, Specter, and Merman) will have a 7% chance of dropping a rare item (up from 0.15%). This means you will be able to stockpile 99 of each item in a few minutes, allowing you to rely on potions instead of magic to heal, practically gives you infinite magic and hearts. Overall Thief mode is harder than the first three, but easier than Shooter.
