Forget about the damage, your character is huge! He should be a boss in his own right.

And yeah, that's like 3 or 4 "One Makes you Larger" pills. I couldn't see anything on the screen in regular-sized rooms.

It's amazing how many times in a row Eden can row low damage and slow starting speed at the same time. e: There are way too many rooms where enemies spawn inside Isaac. And too many enemies that can just teleport in you with no recourse. RBA Starblade fucked around with this message at 05:18 on Feb 4, 2016 |

Soooo...Soy milk and Proptopsis + Polyphemus..is that a good combination? Anyone able to test it out?

# ? Feb 4, 2016 05:19 |

It involves Soy Milk so almost certainly not.

Speaking of items is it ever a good idea to pick up the cursed eye? It doesn't seem like it.

If you have black candle, or are playing the Lost, it can be worth it.

If it gives you five brimstone shots in a row, then I guess then it'd be good there

RBA Starblade posted:Speaking of items is it ever a good idea to pick up the cursed eye? It doesn't seem like it. Generally no but since it only teleports you if you're hit while it's fully charged, it can be good for items that give you huge tears but a slow firerate like polyphemus. It's also useful if you happen to have 20/20 at the same time. CJacobs fucked around with this message at 05:55 on Feb 4, 2016 |

Whoops, never mind then. Continue not ever picking up cursed eye.

Cursed Eye is fine, if a bit situational. The increased burst damage is great against bosses, since you only certain windows to hit them for most of them. It also has some nice synergies with dead eye and tear status effects.

I've grown to appreciate Cursed Eye since they added a ton of synergies to it in Afterbirth. It's not always a guaranteed pick-up, but those times when you have the right items (piercing is definitely number one priority) it's really fun. If you have enough tears up, the teleport hardly matters because your charge is so fast, and you can abuse it to get out of certain situations. Also having that mod that adds charge bars really makes a huge difference to its usability, I don't know how I played without it.

The teleportation in cursed eye can be removed with anti-curse items like black candle, can't it?
|
# ? Feb 4, 2016 22:42 |

I don't think so, but man that should work.

# ? Feb 4, 2016 22:59 |

Black Candle works. Marked also removes the effect and basically turns Cursed Eye into a free Tears Up.
|
# ? Feb 4, 2016 23:02 |
|
Black Candle didn't always block Cursed Eye but it does now. On the other hand I still don't think there's any situation in which cursed eye would be straight-up superior to good old tear firehose, and it screws up a couple of fun synergies. It's ok to pick up if you like using it, but I don't think you're missing anything by skipping over it.

This has been bugging me for a bit, what does the rock symbol on the map in the in-between level loading screens mean? It's always right in front of Isaac on it. e: Becoming Bob while having the lucky rock and bumbo is hilarious RBA Starblade fucked around with this message at 23:45 on Feb 4, 2016 |

It's a clock and basically shows you the pace of getting to the boss rush. It kind of evenly spreads the time across all levels leading up to Mom though so it's not entirely accurate with how much longer Depths levels take than Basement levels.

Samuel Clemens posted:That's why I liked the Undefined + Chest/Dark Room combo so much. Sometimes you just don't want the fun to end. It's a shame they took that from us. I didn't realize that was removed. I've only gotten undefined in the chest once since afterbirth came out since I usually have something better and thought I was just unlucky after sharp plugging myself with it four times in a row. I think it was a huge mistake for them to wait until afterbirth to fix so many things like this or book of belial. When a bug's in the game from day 1 and you don't fix it for a full year despite people pointing it out all the time it kinda comes off as working as intended instead. Especially when you're actively doing patches during that time and fixing other bugs.

You ran out of money, and in Pay to Play that kills you.

It's part of the challenge. In addition to all doors costing a penny to open, all damage taken robs you of money like Greed hits, and if you reach 0 pennies you die.

Anyone else noticing lately that the same item will show up in shops on more than one floor? I'll see Jar of Flies or Starter Deck two or three floors in a row. Once I even rerolled the items in the room and it stayed there. It's not just on one run, either; it's somewhat regularly.
