Where is it? I picked up the Spelunker's hat from a greed mode treasure room and didn't see any secret room appear anywhere.

Both time is was the far left wall of the shop. Like I said it it takes you to an inescapable room, so I'm sure it's a glitch room

Did ol' edmund think this was really a 100+ hour expansion? I smoked the new mode with all the dudes, except the lost, and beat every challenge in like 6 hours over the past two days. I mean its a lot of neat stuff, but the horde mode aspect of it is so hit or miss that I doubt most people are going to keep going back to it.

There were a lot of promises, like 120+ new items and other stuff that weren't really delivered on. That being said though, I'm going to get 100+ hours out of this, just because I'll be playing Afterbirth for basically ever. I'm finding Greed mode a lot of fun, and I could see myself going back to it. After playing it for hours today, I know the act of exploring floors again is going to feel so alien.

I guess if you include the regular game, I can see it. It's just Greed mode is so SAME with every character, and no real varied stages that after clearing it, there isn't much reason to play it over the normal game. If each stage had a different layout, or random obstacles each time, I could see it being a legit 100+ hour expansion. Its like The UNDERDOME RIOT for Borderlands where sure there are different bad guys but the levels were the same each time you played, so there wasn't much reason to go back. Perhaps I am asking too much.

Welp, Lilith unlocked the SMB achievement for me. She's OP.

I think I've only done two normal runs with her now, and I only have Mega Satan left to do with her outside of hard mode stuff. I don't even think I got anything super OP for either of those runs either, just solid items.

Maggy continues to be my least favorite character not counting the Lost for obvious reasons. I can't seem to get anywhere on a Greed run with maggy, I just get overwhelmed on the first floor. I guess I could hit the stop button, but I haven't had to do that with other characters. :colbert:

I got Whore of Babbylon on a devil deal early, then played EVE JR mode. That might help

SUPER MEGA GREED is so boring. I hope they eventually make the fight more dynamic, and less tanky. I literally spent like 10 minutes soymilk coin shooting him and his stupid coins. Its not hard and its not fun.

Yeah I can see why they scale the health with Ultra Greed but he needs to have about half of what he has now. I go through all his attack patterns like 20 times when I fight him and that shouldn't happen I feel like.

Or maybe make it a fight with several stages similar to Mega Satan.

I think my favorite new item is Spider Mod. I just think it's such a cool idea.

I guess that's what I meant by dynamic. If you make it there you just gotta hang out and shoot for an hour. Mega Satan is hella dope, Mega Greed is hella nope.

Hang on - are you saying you picked up Soy Milk and Tears of the Keeper in a Greed run? Tears of the Keeper has a chance to create a coin every time your tears hit, and Ultra Greed heals by picking up coins. Combined with Soy Milk dramatically reducing damage and increasing fire rate ... you get the picture?

I'm saying I got dealt a bad hand by MISSING NO. but the fight is loving Boring no matter what. If you make it to him normally you can't lose. It's just a dull fight.

I didnt think it was that bad as long as you play with a different character each time. Get the d20 and a battery spawn in the store, dont pick up any coins on the floor and you can completely break each run

Base Isaac stats. Start with 1 heart container. You can accrue items on each floor, but after entering a trapdoor to the next floor and beginning the next round, everything resets - remove all money, keys, bombs, usable items, all stat modifiers, heart containers reduced to 1. The only items exempted from the reset would be The Bible and the Angel Key pieces.

The LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.
