Anyone know how to unlock Judas this time around? Just completed the Womb and he didn't unlock so I have no idea. Also, has anyone unlocked the new secret character yet? EDIT: The extra damage from Bob's Brain is nice but I wish I could see the cooldown timer on it so I don't keep accidentally using it on close enemies.

ZZT the Fifth posted:Be really loving careful about using the D10 against Gemini while they're still connected if you don't have any other items. Does each link in the chain connecting them count as an enemy or something? Speaking of the D10, I want to see someone do it against Teratoma/Envy.

So what does hard mode actually change? Also do we know if there are unique rewards for it yet?

vuohi posted:I am definitely pleased with the amount of new poo poo they added to the game. I guess knowing the old game inside out does help some though, because I killed mom on my first run and the cathedral boss on my second. Yeah, knowing the first game definitely helps. About half of the game is the same afterall.

If you have the item that lets you hold 2 tarot cards Ctrl lets you switch between them too.Broken Cog posted:How does Eden work exactly? You start with random stats(but there's a minimum they can't go under), random hair, and 2 random items(but never 2 use items). Every time you kill Mom's Heart you get a token you can use to play Eden once.

There are some special seeds that give special effects when you play them. http://platinumgod.co.uk/rebirth-seeds has some listed and will presumably update with more. BRWNSNKE looks pretty hard without an item that lets you destroy poop by walking over it.

I hit a randomizer room late in a run and got the most ridiculous(and buggy) setup I've had yet. I had the item that makes your shot into one big controllable tear and magnetic shots, along with some damage upgrades and parasite(so the tear constantly shot out mini-tears when it touched an enemy). Turns out that combination is pretty buggy, since when an enemy(including bosses!) got sucked into they'd freak out and whip all around the room until they died(which didn't take long). I also had Taurus, and either it's bugged or that's easily the most ridiculous item in the game right now. EVERY time I entered a new room I'd get the unicorn effect for like 5 seconds. Half the time I never needed to use my magnet deathball since I'd kill everything while I was invincible.

Wugga posted:So, has anyone encountered a bug where Isaac just drops bombs on his own all of a sudden? Sometimes I'm so immersed in a boss fight I don't even notice and it ends up killing me. Happens with both keyboard and gamepad. It's not too common, but annoying as poo poo. Sounds like Explosive Diarrhea. You can get that from a pill and a use item, but I dunno if there's an item that just makes you do it randomly.

PureQuestion posted:Yes. This is the final boss of the Dark Room, accessed by defeating Satan while holding the Negative. Apparently to unlock the real final boss you need to bomb two Angels and collect 2 halves of a key. Then you bring it to the chest to fight the boss. The boss is Mega Satan and the fight sounds nuts.

The worst runs are the ones that give you ridiculous survivability items but no damage upgrades. Bosses aren't hard but taking loving forever to beat. Similarly, gently caress Soy Milk.

Rainbow shots(different shot effect each room) is really fun now with all the different kinds of shots. Can't do Ludovico though.

Magres posted:I wish you could turn items back off after getting them. Getting anti-grav tears on Azazel is completely unplayable, and it's really frustrating to have a promising run ruined like that What does Anti-grav do with Azazel/Brimstone? Also getting stuck with bad items is part of the game. It's why the Curse of Blindness(can't see what items are until you pick them up) can be dangerous.

EDIT: ^^^^ Fire rate/tears up. Shot speed and range do nothing iirc. Does Dr Fetus+Pyromaniac give you infinite healing? By the way guys, I think Secret rooms are generated the same as the last game. The only new addition is you have to actually be able to get to the secret room without flying from each of the rooms it connects to. So if the spot where the secret room door would be is over a pit or across from a pit it's not possible for a secret room to spawn there.

^^^ It does not. Ugh, the Horsemen can drop both the bandage ball and the cube of meat during the same run. Means that even if you get lucky and get fight four Horsemen in the same run there's still only a 12.5% chance they'll all give the same item. Also the Suicide King challenge sure doesn't lie. I think that's probably going to be the hardest challenge for me. The only easy way I can see of doing it is resetting until you get Pyromaniac but I've only seen that in Treasure rooms.

Wolpertinger posted:I thought angel rooms never happened if you made with a deal with a devil, and buying the goat head would do that, wouldn't it? Nah I've gotten an Angel room with Goat head. Goat head seems to guarantee a Devil or Angel room, not just Devil rooms. Also about not getting one after taking a deal with the devil, it's possible that taking a deal just gives you a shitton of sin and it's possible to get enough faith afterwards to get an Angel room.
