I thought the doors to a room opened after a certain amount of time? I got an impossible room on burning basement (flies hovering over rocks) with no bombs, stood in a corner, came back 5min later and the doors are still shut. I tried quitting and reloading and the exact same thing happened, I can't really stop them from hiding behind rocks forever. Streak over, I guess?

  This was a remarkably good Lost run. The Soul and three orbitals (and Farting Baby) let me take down Hush untouched, The only thing it didn't have was Dad's Key to let me take out MS.

Apparently Afterbirth MIGHT hit the bone and PS4 on February but they refuse to comment on the Wii U, 3DS and Vita versions. So I guess I'm hosed.

Nothing like cheesing the Lost. Got a broken build with Isaac and kept a Missing Poster since Basement 2. Melted Mega Satan before he could even act and got the easy unlock.

I'm SO bad at not getting hit thrice in SOME room  Best try so far with either of Lost/Keeper was with Lost and Ludovico technique, but even then I only got to third or fourth level before getting too greedy and trying to survive a boss challenge room with four golden chests (none of which had any damage ups, bah). Gotta work on being more careful.EDIT: First success with Lost after about 20 fails. Beat it lives, Isaac and ??? by getting blank card, 2 of diamonds and restock. Also, note to self: don't pick up missing no. Almost made me fail the run, but thankfully I had reduced the item pool far enough (or something?) so it stopped scrambling me after the third time so I at least knew what I was working with for the rest of the time, a moderately high damage triple shot+conjoined+my reflection combo, no holy mantle. Thankfully the dead cat stuck with me through the ordeals and I managed to kill ??? in just two tries with one life left afterwards. Had lost about 5 lives trying to beat a vertical double bloat room, the horror. Gave Mega Satan a go since I had dad's key from earlier, but only got about halfway through the first form before getting bombed by the super envy. Then I promptly buggered off to the ??? room chest and ended the run since I have no idea if the item unlocks remain unlocked if you fail the run. Do they?

Head Trauma is a lot more obnoxious than I thought it would be. Half the rooms I keep getting are enemies that rush me down, and start circling me, so it's not possible to avoid damage before the tears circle around, especially with how little damage you do. Then I had to fight Pestilence in a super tiny room, and the acid cut off 3/4s of it. RIP

Oh my good, I FINALLY got hush done with keeper. That was an insane amount of failed runs, holy poo poo. That character is the most frustrating bullshit, the Lost is a breeze compared to him. I went through every conceivable combination of items, always gunning for swallowed penny at the start. Ended up getting to hush with a really strong ipecac-build, then I found Tech X in the item room and managed to no-hit the fight. Thank god it's over!!! Only the Lamb to go with the bastard. Edit: A tip for keeper runs: If you find Swallowed Penny you can do self-sacrifice rooms for free and get a chance for a teleport to the angel room for a free item, a 33% chance for an angel room item in the sacrifice room itself and a shitload of coins.

I think I actually like the Keeper, I don't think the tears/speed is that bad a problem, the triple shot is good for the early floors and synergizes well. I wish there was a way to get more health but otherwise I like it. The only problem is that the unlocks are pretty lame, so far only did Greed Mode with him.

 So apparently Greed's Head + Parasite + any piercing tears means sometimes you land a hit that just explodes into a lot of coins. And doing it with a big target like Hush means the entire room can suddenly and violently fill with coins. I have Fruitcake rather than Greed's Head here. I love Fruitcake so much. I also have Store Restock and Chaos which means it's time to go shopping Edit:  If I didn't need Dad's Key to open up Mega Satan I would reroll this whole mess until it stopped being funny.

I like the large champion enemies because you can hear the real audio of whatever they recorded. There's definitely one that's just some little kid going "rawr!" That they sped up for the normal enemy.

hell yea, did it with holy mantle still active too. wasn`t anything special, had two pretty flies, guppy, and good damage up but with normal tears. the sticky friend was a total mistake to take - it would slow down hush`s tears which in turn made them take a lot longer to clear off screen. my last lost run ended that way.

Aw jiss, BRAINS! finished. I knew I was right that the only way to beat the challenge was to get a shop with a shootable candle in it. After getting one it was smoothish sailing to chest and then I lucked out and got a gnawed leaf. Coupled with my sacrifical dagger I was able to take out almost every room without having to move and ??? took just a bit of working on to get him to stick to me too. Now I just have Onan's Streak left as I finished Speed before this. That's a terrible challenge too, had to get a really good build so it didn't take too long to clear rooms. Not looking forward to Onan's either, I miss a lot

Re: that guy on the last page, always do Lost unlocks before Keeper ones, Lost unlocks cool poo poo like Godhead/The Soul/The Mind that can carry or do work on a Keeper run, while all of Keeper's unlocks are useless or only benefit Keeper

Yeah, I've been playing Lost and have unlocked all except Mega Satan, Hush and Boss Rush ones for him now. EDIT: and Onan's streak done! Totally cheapoed it by getting bumbo, the auto-turret familiar and later the magic fingers That's all the challenges done, time to continue with lost and keeper, ugh.

Beat Hush as ???. I had two orbitals and the Soul for defense, but all I had for offense was a middlish-to-strong Death's Touch and a low firing rate. Good grief that took forever. The last few times I've been to Hush's level I've found a crawlspace under the rocks in one of the two treasure rooms. Is this crawlspace guaranteed?

Lost's post-it note finished, did Hush and Mega Satan in one go after getting restock, mimic card and 2 of diamonds Now I just have the keeper left. EDIT: first successful Keeper run, got Ipecac, yum heart and keeper's head. beat it lives, hush, Isaac and ???. Keeper's a terrible, terrible character.

Skunkrocker posted:Yum Heart works with the Keeper? That's odd. Same reason that picking up a health up heals Keeper when he has an empty coin container. It's direct healing and doesn't go through heart pick-ups. Placenta regeneration, Mom's Locket healing, and Charm of the Vampire all work as well.

Ugh, boss rush and satan beaten with keeper. Got a couple tear ups, daddy longlegs, dead eye and habit. Later a keeper's head. Died to lamb's second volley after getting hit by the first one as he was slowed down and I couldn't see the tears were homing Got super lucky in the dark room though, used a random teleport pill in the first room and landed immediately next to the boss room. Such a terrible character, takes so many retries to get a tolerable run going.

I'm probably going to restart Keeper runs until I find the Soul in B1. Soy Milk is almost viable with Keeper's triple shot. Almost. Also, does Tech.5 give random shot properties other than homing and Tiny Planet? It was randomly spawning coins for me where it hit monsters, and I didn't have Greed Head.
