Manatee Cannon posted:I find regular Gurdy to be much easier and way, way less tedious. Dodging Gurdy's attacks is really simple and much better than constantly spawning flies. If you do what BJ said the flies won't attack you and Gurdy won't spawn more than two or three of them. It literally spawns less enemies than regular Gurdy despite being the variant that only spawns enemies. Crotch Bat posted:Stopwatch is absolutely ridiculous. I'll be shocked if I ever lose a run where I get that in the shop. Mananged one on the first floor and got a Holy Mantle with Azazel. I'm like "here is where I finally get Dark Boy". Then I see MissingNo and I have never seen it before so I grabbed it. I still beat The Lamb on that run though.

Man this run was just absolutely disgusting. I basically had every single damage up in the game, inculding polywhatshisname with the huge tears, the scythes, small rock etc. Also Monstros lung which made me charge really long, but everything died in one hit. Wish I had found Tammys head or sad bombs just to see how huge the projectile would get.

Can anyone who has completed this garbage Head Trauma challenge tell me how they did it? The complete lack of non-consumable pick ups make this thing an absolute zero fun chore, unless I'm missing something. This challenge and Solar System are just the worst.

I did it by finding the Bible and a lot of patience. I also got coal near the end but it really didn't end up being a factor. Solar system is Isaac distilled to its very essence: dodging. You have flying, which makes nearly every room easier, you just have to be very familiar with how to dodge every enemy (and cheese everything you can by hovering over rocks and pits).

I am so sick of Family Man, it is such a lovely challenge. Like what the gently caress, man. If it stopped at Mom or something that'd be one thing, but this is just stupid. I almost killed Isaac but of course I got hit by his stupid light thing, which is the worst attack to evade in the game.

Solar System is super easy if you get any other pickups (Meat Cube, Ball of Bandages) to surround you and you get BFF.

It took me a few tries of getting stuff like lipstick, but attack fly is pretty high damage and can get you past Mom alone even without BFF.

Solar System is actually ok compared to the other ones, I actually beat Mom fast enough to do the boss rush. Guppy's Head shows up fairly regularly too so that can help too.

I shot backwards when my brain could manage to keep that part straight, but what really helped was moving in a circle along with the tears. Then I'd have payloads of tears hitting enemies at the same time.

Then I'd have payloads of tears hitting enemies at the same time. That's how I did it too. If you shoot backwards the tears intersect very close to your body behind you (and a lot faster than the first time they do in front of you) and then again when they come full circle. so you kind of have 2 hitboxes behind you.

I just got a die room that rerolls the entire floor on cellar one. Clear the floor, step on it. Another re-roll die room spawns. Clear floor again, hit it. Now I've got an XL cellar. I'm going to have something like 8 items between item rooms and bosses and I'm not even on the second floor yet. M4G9 9AAV if you want to experience this madness for yourself.

The real answer for dealing with the lovely, obnoxious challenges is to pray you get a dice room that rerolls you into an unstoppable death god. Or at least one by comparison to what the game gave you before.

I got this combo but I was doing Slow Roll, which meant it took me like 6 seconds to clear a single poop. I farmed exactly as much money as I needed to buy what I wanted on that floor and said gently caress It to the rest.

Had a decent run with Maggie today with just one misstep, saw the blue flames in one of the god rooms and boom, really pissed off angel man. I had no idea you could piss in their cereal! Still, Mom's knife made short work of him as it did everyone else I came across. Oh and the donation machine is a complete troll, with max cash and a dollar sitting in the arcade it jams after two pennies.

if you reroll on beans then you'll probably still have a high chance of loving yourself up unless you're confident in either directly killing everything with the normal bomb blast or skipping basically every room w/ a bomb on your way to the boss basically just don't reroll blindfold challenges. the blindfold isn't an item, but a limitation. the items given to you are specifically picked to let you win.

MasterSlowPoke posted:Is there any way of seeing how many blue rocks I've blown up? I still have never seen the small rock. Nope, just keep blowing up more. Once you get it though it's an incredibly common drop from dark rocks. If I get it in a run, I generally get it in the Caves/Catacombs at latest.

Oh yeah, that item's a real piece of garbage. It would be fine if it was a thing that was like Bob's Brain that got tossed along with your tears and left some creep once per room. Not fantastic, but useful in the right situation. But needing to get hit for it to activate just makes it utter trash. Maybe if it could get hit by enemy bullets and break apart then it wouldn't be completely useless?

It also works really well with Bloody Lust and getting into red challenge rooms. It's not the greatest item but it has its uses. And it's not even new, it was in the original.

Cybershell posted:This literally loving happened last night while I was streaming With your setup the Guillotine was actually a good item, though? It's a huge orbital that blocks enemy shots and does ridiculous damage as a melee weapon. The reason it's normally unusably bad is that it totally fucks up your aim, but with Ludovico Technique that's not an issue.
