Power of Pecota posted:Chaos Card for Hush phase 2 is a godsend - I honestly don't remember if that's what did it for me, a lot of the lovely grindy game break accomplishments mushed together in my mind You can actually kill both phases with one Chaos card. Just run towards Phase 1 from below and throw the card upwards. Inzombiac posted:I won't play Keeper unless it is with the swallowed penny. With all the extra trinkets and items characters start with, it's weird that Keeper doesn't get Swallowed Penny. I wonder if there's a mod for that.

I just had a surprisingly awesome synergy I'd never have expected. I had E.Coli, so bumping into things turned them to turds, and I got Taurus, which does that whole gradual speed boost until you turn invulnerable thing... but I had high enough base speed that it triggered immediately upon entering a room, so I just rubbed my face against everything and cleared the room before the invulnerability ran out. It meant it was pretty easy to get that "It's the key" achievement, too.

Just use it every time you can and then sweep the level before you move on. However it is not really viable without a bunch of battery support.

I don't like fighting games that much, but I might buy this Blade Strangers game if it's not $60. https://twitter.com/nicalis/status/994298523809005568

Is it just me or is Technology Zero drat near useless unless you already have a broken setup?

END CHEMTRAILS NOW posted:Tech Zero is pretty nice if you've got something that spreads out your tears, like tammy's head, quad shot, tiny planet, the wiz, sprinkler, lachryphagy, rubber cement, etc. Tech Zero, Wiz, Jacob's Ladder and Soymilk was one of the weirdest but also most fun runs I've had recently. It was like firing a really weak laser rifle across a whole room.

The easiest synergy to accomplish with Tech Zero is any form of piercing shots. The laser basically just augments your damage at that point.

The Forgotten synergizes really well with all the laser items. Some of them give him a laser cloak on swing or a laser tether of throw.

The Forgotten's biggest crime so far is not having a synergy with Death's Touch. Even just sharing the sprite from getting Mom's Knife would've been cool but whatever this is still the best character by far

So I just decided to leave all the Hush/Delirium stuff till after I do all the other poo poo (unless I get a ludicrously good setup) because earlier this morning I had a really great Forgotten run (my first Forgotten run, in fact) and then I decided to ruin it by going to fight Hush and losing. That really sucked a lot Also Chocolate Milk is really good with The Forgotten (not so much for The Soul, though, unless you like chocolate milk). The bone gets bigger as you charge up. Just go around thwacking everything. Edit: Also I had a Dr. Fetus Keeper run ended in the depths by black worms that charge. Did you know that in depths there are black worms that leave creep and can suddenly charge forward with little warning? I did not know this, and I paid dearly for it. I was extremely unhappy.

The Switch version still doesn't have a quick restart button, right? That's kind of a deal killer for me.

I just got 3 Angel Rooms without a single item. First one had six pennies and the last two both just had a single angel heart. I hate this game sometimes.

Oh man I didn't realize Forgotten could charge his weapon to throw it, you can't do that after you pick up Chocolate Milk. It's okay though because it packs a wallop when you charge it with milk

ah yes one of the universal constants of isaac is still in play: if you have low speed and no piercing attacks, the mask of infamy is still one of the worst bosses in the entire loving game

A lot of the more complicated mods have to do some convoluted things to get good results. Here's a tweak for the two most infamous bosses, though: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1376065137 And here's one that rebalances HP values for nearly everything, mostly lowering them: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1328654492 Pigbuster fucked around with this message at 03:43 on May 11, 2018 |

Jedit posted:Does anyone know how to unlock the Forgotten with Cheat Engine? I don't want to go through the hassle. On a related note, I did some testing recently. If you use mom's shovel on the dirt patches in the dark room after The Forgotten is already unlocked, you get a chest (which automatically contains an item). The interesting thing is that We Need To Go Deeper does the same thing, and I suspect an Ehwaz rune would as well. So, it makes me wonder: If you haven't unlocked The Forgotten, can you unlock him using We Need To Go Deeper or Ehwaz, without having to bother with the whole Mom's Shovel quest?

You have to be in a run (ie, after choosing a character and seeing the first room) in order for the console to work. If that's not the problem, maybe there's an issue with your keyboard. I can't think of any other reason it wouldn't show up. In a run. And there's no problem with my keyboard. ````

The problem was that the red fly would fly right at an enemy if it was close enough so enemies next to the door would get blowed up before you would have a chance to get out of the way. I feel like they should just get it over with and make it so their explosion doesn't hurt you.
