Color Printer posted:Holy poo poo, Judas + Book of Belial + Spider Quad-shot + Parasite Split-shot = Death to everything. I had a pretty awesome Judas run earlier, with Blood Of The Martyr + Pentagram + Fire Rate Mushroom + A handful of +1 health ups + both Little Chad AND Charm of the Vampire. All that combined with Book Of Belial and RIP everything.

Trying to complete the chest with Eve and Samson has really burnt me out on this game. The only times I get a decent build the photo doesn't spawn. With the other characters I feel like I get the photo roughly half the time, but not with Eve and Samson. I guess quitting in the caves\basement all the time because they're not fun has something to do with it...

Brighter side, update's apparently coming out today! Multi Colored bosses! I can't wait to fight double bloat that can shoot brimstone in a 8 way shot!

I love having all my money shot out of me by dudes with entirely too many HP and way too many projectiles. Or maybe an enemy that steals container hearts?

notoriousman posted:Gah, gently caress Avarice. I don't even mind the v-shaped projectiles so much, but if you're so unfortunate that it bumps into you you'll end up dropping every drat coin in your inventory - his hit detection for this ignores invincibility frames! On the other hand, that becomes a feature if you have the D20.

Greeds spawn way too much, having 30+ gold feels really useless sometimes.

If you have the D20 or the Bum Friend, Greed will be your best friend. Let him hit you a time or two to knock the coins out, then kick his rear end to (hopefully) make more drop. Then reroll/let your portable beggar pick it up. He can spit out a Polaroid, I've seen him do it! The problem with a lot of Wrath enemies is that they have too much god drat HP. This is especially true for the bouncing Greed heads and the green guys with Ipecac-style shots. If you don't have any damage ups, it takes way too long to hurt them. And if you get a lovely room layout, they're run-enders. E: So much for a Friday update, I guess, unless it's pushed out well into evening.

Also I fixed my achievements being all messed up by deleting the so.sol file like the wiki suggests, but for some reason I lost Cain's Eye and I have to do anther Chest run with him :/

OriginalPseudonym posted:Isn't it just Brimstone, but lovely? I don't think I've seen it once since I've started playing, or I picked it up and didn't know how to use it or something. It used to be great (like brimstone) and combined with triple shot, I killed satan in like 3 volleys of charged up power. The entire appeal was that it did crazy damage after it was charged. Now, it doesn't seem to charge up to even a fraction of its old power. Last time I used it, it felt like I had to charge it up for 4 seconds just to do 2x damage. And it disables auto-fire so it feels like a huge nerf if you're shooting pretty fast already, forcing you to mash fire.

It's a bit more flexible than brimstone as it allows you to fire off shots regularly while still being able to fire up a charged shot whenever you like. I hate it though as my finger gets tired of having to press the arrow keys over and over. A strong item but nothing really game-changing.

I never seem to have good runs anymore. I can start out with Cain and still the game gives me the choice of The Bean and Lemon Mishap on Labrynthian Necropolis, when all I had were low tier familiars and a few range ups. Why do you hate me RNG, when all I do is show undying love for you?

I have had an off day  I've only finished the final level with Cain and Judas, so I'm trying to get the time-sinks out of the way (??? and Eve) but Eve just never gets her damage into blood tears, and ??? I can net a good loadout on but I just never seem to survive past the Cathedral. I'm hoping that I can eventually brute force my way into the final final boss fight as Eve with the Ankh or something so I can kill it, kill myself, and then do the fight again as ???, but we'll see. All else fails, all I need is Knife + Mom's Bra and I'm set. Provided I don't have that as ??? with only one soul heart left

I basically forgot I even had this game (I think it came with some Indie Bundle at some point) and the DLC coming out made me take a minute to actually try it out. I haven't been able to put it down for a whole loving week now and every day that I get home from work, I sit down for a good 3-4 hour chunk with it because holy poo poo it's so addicting. That said, I managed to get the achievements for not taking damage in the Basement/Caves/Womb, but I can't get the Depths for the life of me. I've been kinda going back and forth between playing as Cain and hoping for lucky drops, and doing the Isaac Is Good Today challenge for the guaranteed Halo / Flying, but some of those rooms are so loving miserable. Stupid barfy skulls. Oh yeah, and I had a run where I made it to Isaac with Samson, had like 100 soul hearts, and was spitting tri-polyphemus tears with massive damage, then figured I'd see what using the Bible against Isaac does.

Do that or just make a lot of runs to the Chest because that place is 20 rooms of minibosses. He's not quite as rare as it seems, he probably makes an appearance for me every 10-15 runs.

KataraniSword posted:A better question is, "what are the requirements for Golden God now" since there's pretty much no way to 'roll back' the game? I would assume that you just have to collect the original set of items, as that's all that it counted towards "golden" status before. The no-damage achievements didn't count for 100% completion (or my friend's copy bugged out, which is actually pretty drat likely). I can only assume platinum would be for collecting all the WotL stuff*. *Pure speculation.

Should come about naturally in a brand new install of the game although it will take a lot longer since there's a ton of other items now in the game whereas before there was a smaller pool of them.

I just had an Isaac run where literally every trinket I've unlocked except for The Tick, Counterfeit Penny, ???'s Soul, Cancer, and The Polaroid dropped. I must have fed at least 70 coins into fortune telling machines.
