Synergies
Edit
- Brimstone: Stacks, but makes charge requires longer amounts of time. However, the damage also stacks, resulting in an attack that will one hit most bosses, making even the Chest obscenely easy.
- Cupid's Arrow: Shots turn red and tear size won't decrease if tear does more damage than enemy has life. Tear size stays increased and pierces enemies.
- Jesus Juice: Increases Damage and shots turn into blood.
- Technology: Creates large laser with Maximum Damage, but only every 1.5sec.
- Technology 2: Increases damage if taken after Tech 2.
- Mom's Eye: One large tear always in both directions.
- Tough Love: Tears with extra damage can hit multiple enemies
Notes
Edit
Dr. Fetus does not stack with this item. It simply reduces the bomb fire rate with no damage increase.
When used by Cain, a large tear will be fired from the center (as opposed to the usual left eye) as well.
