IMJack posted:Much more likely to get that weird double Pentagram bonus for Devil/Angel Room spawns. The main trick is that you can't use D6 before Dilpopia simultaneously, because if you reroll the Diplopia will also be rerolled. But while you can't re-roll until you get items you want to double, you can turn 3 mediocre items into 6 great pieces of reroll fuel. Throw in the Jera and profit!

I wonder how broken the game would be if theres an item that lets you carry two space-bar items...

All you'd have to do is pick up Diplopia first. Then you'd have two of everything else, including twin D6. I hope Hive Mind stacks because Guppy mode would be even more hilarious

Manatee Cannon posted:All you'd have to do is pick up Diplopia first. Then you'd have two of everything else, including twin D6. Exactly. Up to 3 rerolls before Diplopia, 7 with Dilpopia (gotta pick that dice up first), and like 14 if you Jera the chests before opening them. It's kind of terrifying how much power that is.

The Bee posted:Dilpopia Diplopia 4 times in two posts, I can't handle that much misspelling. But yeah, It does sound REALLY nice. Although I have had those two runs where I found a Credit Card and didn't get the chance to use it for the whole game, so I imagine that Diplopia will be the same way.

So the past couple of weeks, I've been throwing my body at the brick wall that's ??? on Hard in order to unlock the D6. Just finished today, and it was a struggle - Infestation Shot being my first Treasure Room item really helped with survivability. It was interesting having to actually cherry pick which Devil Room deals I wanted - on Normal, I usually had enough hearts to grab everything and then some. But the great thing is that I managed to get the Bible in a shop, which took care of Mom. I managed to get Guppy mode by Utero I, with Guppy's Collar, Guppy's Tail, and Nine Lives in that order. So I was pretty much set. And then I managed to become Lord of the Flies with Skatole in a Utero II arcade. My flies were monstrous. And then once Isaac died and I was in the Chest, I got Cricket's Body, Polythemus, Cupid's Arrow, and Ipecac. And then I got Sad Bombs, Poison Bombs, and Quad Shot while clearing the chest out. And then I got the Anarchist's Cookbook and The Tower card. One hit of the spacebar and a tap on Q and I had what felt like a dozen poison bombs which exploded into green-tinted giant explosive shrapnel that exploded into even more dozens of explosive poison shrapnel. Everything died in a blaze of green gory gassy glory. If anyone else wants to cackle manically in the Chest, the seed's 3SCK.

Cobalt60 posted:I mean, there's no way it would work in a three-item devil room... right?? Diplopia works on items in the shop. So, yeah. It's like having a credit card you could then stack. Pentagram, Nine Lives, and The Mark for free... and then you get all of them with Credit Card too. EDIT: Also, you know, you could do this as well. Diplopia those three items, then PERTHRO them. Get Brimstone, Dark Bum, and Guppy's Collar. The possibilities with this item are going to be awesome, to be sure. EDIT 2: Also, meat boy.

Nothing like having a 10-streak, then going on an Eden run with low speed, low rate of fire, low damage, one heart, and getting swarmed by six fat red flies in a small room on the first floor. I literally couldn't do anything other than watch myself die.

Ariong posted:You normal extra lives come first, then the ones that transform you, then once you're out of surefire extra lives Guppy's Collar kicks in. I'm not sure it works like that, because I had a Lost run last night that looked like it might finally get me through Boss Rush, but I died with one life left on my dead cat, and came back as Lazarus, still had the cat life but obviously it didn't really matter anymore. Carbon dioxide posted:It depends on where you actually die. If you carefully walk into the door and die while inside the curse room, you'll spawn on the outside. If you run through it, the death animation will trigger while you're already entering the next room, and it will spawn you in the last room you were in, which is inside the curse room. Holy poo poo thanks so much. Wasted so many lives Manatee Cannon posted:Ah, cool. I had a Lost run where I got D6 and Missing no (finally hitting Platinum God) and was super excited for the chaos...

Lazarus comes first because it revives you inside the room without resetting it. I believe the order is lazarus->guppy's collar->cat lives/1-up->dark judas->ankh.

I'm trying to picture... I mean. It *must* be the case that you can random into the duploblock as starting equipment, right? So you could theoretically duplo the duplo? I guess you'd never get infinite growth, but, anything else you could figure out how to get in the room would get repeat-duploed. Is there a 3rd duplo on a grassy gnoll that might be gettable? I guess it's edge case at best. You might see it in the chest and get to multi-duplicate a stat up or something.

So I was in Utero 1. Not a great loadout, but serviceable. Tech 2, a few damage ups, Gish, Little Chad, the Wafer, and so on. Decided to use a 1 Die room. Ended up with Ipecac, Tiny Planet, and My Reflection. I'm not sure it gets worse. Edit: And, apparently, Cricket's Body and Loki's Horns. What a good decision.

I really need to share this seed with you! Ipecac+pyromaniac+monstros lung+ Crickets body. Those are the first 4 treasure room items. Ipecac and Pyromaniac might be only after a reroll. 0G9HBCRX on easy. If you reroll the item in the boss room on cave 2 you also get deaths touch. cant cook creole bream fucked around with this message at 17:10 on Aug 5, 2015 |

All I need to do is get a couple Lazarus wins on hard to have all the hard mode clears before Afterbirth, so I was playing him last night. I got tech in basement 1 and it kind of sucked but then in basement 2 I got ludovico, which made it good. A couple damage ups along the way -- jesus juice, odd mushroom -- and it pretty much carried me through the boss rush and the chest. It's not ludobrim, but it'll do.

Speaking of Gurdy, where exactly is her hitbox? I fought one in the Beans! challenge and it took like 20 bombs even though I had it right next to her. Do I have to put them inside of Gurdy's sprite?

Do I have to put them inside of Gurdy's sprite? A little bit, yes. Gurdy's hitbox is approximately here: If it went all the way up on top, you wouldn't be able to walk behind her, and if it went all the way to the sides you wouldn't be able to walk around her if those rocks that sometimes spawn were in the way. So you can touch all 3 "corners" of the sprite without getting hurt, it's just a bit ambiguous where. I'd say it's about one tile's worth of space between a corner of Gurdy and the hitbox, considering bombs placed on the outside edge of her sprite won't hurt her.
