Best Beginner characters in Vampire Survivors

Pasqualina

  • Pasqualina is an excellent character for beginners due to their Runetracer ability, which is considered a top-tier weapon by several leaderboard players.

Also, the hero is available in the initial default character list for only 100 gold coins.

Mortaccio

  • Mortaccio is another excellent beginner hero that is great for players who like projectile-based abilities, as he can expand the number of projectiles owned every 20 levels. Combine his bones with other projectile-style skills like Magic Wand, Runetracer, and Knife to make the most out of his perks. You can unlock the character for 500 gold coins after defeating 3000 skeletons.
