When an item is so unused it's main effect is considered "hidden"

same at 4:04 , THATS THE ENTIRE POINT OF NUMBER MAGNET
@@TheGiantBreadbugi mean its also kinda like voodoo head for devils and by the time you find it youll have probably fought krampus sooo
Thanks for the shout-out ^^' I was really excited when I discovered the Delirium instant-kill :D
Idk if this has been already stated but if you play Tainted Lazarus on any floor with reflective ground, you can see the other version of yourself in the reflection.
Btw is it working with birthright?
@@shawermus I don’t know how birthright would affect the reflection. It would probably have tainted Lazarus’s dead and alive version have their own individual reflections. Or maybe not because the other version appears as a ghost? I would have to test it out at some point to see for myself.
I adore the super specific triple item synergy. I want more stuff like that in the game
My guess would be it was planned for the glitch chests to actually be able to spawn and be openable but they decided not to do that but just reused them for the broken motem effect and didn’t realize it was possible to actually open them lol
@@shanedancer3895 if that were true they would have used the milk for the items
an interesting sort of thing I remember about sanguine bond is that the spikes are also in krampus' room and can hit flying enemies just like the sac room spikes, the result is krampus' getting bent because they share the same spawn tile
I love the use of “getting bent” instead of getting hurt SO much.
I wonder if you can use krampus as payment
@@doctorhealsgood5456 *i will pay my taxes with my krampus*
@@adame.9469 *krampus can be exchanged for goods and services*
Damn I just got a crazy idea. Imagine if while wearing either Spelunker hat or Host hat and getting Damocles'd you were left at half a heart and the item protecting you disappeared along with Damocles. Would be a cool mechanic
Or Damocles appears skewered into your skull and it grants a 50% to duplicate an item
@@mystrrrreioucuszthlpepperac Isaac: My head hurts. You guys, my head hurts!
T. Azazel: Bro, that looks painful- and I had my wings amputated.
Or you change character into glare
Conehead isaac should just have his cone bonked and lose both conehead and damocles and be left with little health.
@@Winasaurus or he becomes gregg the egg
if you turn into lost by touching white fire place and take “lost soul” item, the lost familiar will gain holy mantle for the rest of the run.
About that last one, invincibility frames in this game are directly correlated to how much damage you take, so if you take 2 damage from the BIG champion, you also get double invincibility frames
i thought that was changed when repentance came out
@@beanslinger2 Nope
@@beanslinger2 I think it was only holy mantle
This is true until Chapter 4, where Every source of damage becomes Full heart damage. The Invincibility frame rule still applies though, So if you are in a situation where you can take a regular or Champion hit, Taking the Champion hit is grants more I frames.
If you use keepers box in a boss room after using satanic bible, it'll cost soul harts for items or have spikes around consumables, this even works retroactively if you use the satanic bible after and reenter the room
The Tainted Lazarus bug with Bone Spurs also applies with the Boney and orbitals from Book Of The Dead, giving you an army of Boneys
I just was wondering how my Tainted Laz run had so many Bonies! Thanks
this happened on the first tainted laz run i ever did, was able to bring delirium to about half health with jus an army of boneys
@@benito6036 no problem
Crow Heart trinket prevents from losing bone heart containers as long as it still has red health (OP with Forgotten).
Huh, that's one of those things that seems obvious in hindsight, but that I doubt I ever would have considered on my own. I'll have to keep that in mind, thanks!
Did it means I lost my run of Forgotten because of this ?
Probably, good to know haha
I love how the brimstones from locust of war were actually smaller, even having a different sound, just like how it usually behaves (the small explosion sound effect)
hey I found a neat interaction to break the game the other day if you use Keeper's Box to spawn a shop item and have Restock it will generate a new item when you buy one from the shop but the price doesn't increase. You have to buy a key or heart or whatever spawns first but then it turns into a pedestal item. I had a Steam Sale so I was able to continuously generate money, buy items for 7 cents, buy Chaos, then break the game. Makes the Keeper's Box much better imo. I think using the restock machine made the generated items disappear but I was already broken at that point so I didn't do too much testing.
Actually, for the ipecac one, it’s ALL damage that deals a full heart which gives you longer invincibility frames, not just ipecac !
It's not an IsaacGuru video without fatty slaughter. Anyways, these are actually pretty cool, especially the found soul, and I think anything that gives soul hearts directly might work, but I am not sure
I tested many items but only Dream Catcher seems to work.
@@IsaacGuru did you check if dream catcher also gives soul hearts to co op players? that may be the key
I always love these vids as it gives me more insight on the game. I can't test this out myself as I'm console so no commands
Hey but does anyone know when is console getting another update?? bc i didnt got an update in ages and we are still missing some items that are in pc like glass eye
@@sleepinginmute yeah and our tainted characters still use their old mechanics not including T Cain
@@kakashilover9231 YEA BRO LIKE- I FUCKING HATE THAT- edmund pls update tboi on ps4 im dying inside-
@@sleepinginmute worst part is I get so used to watching others play an updated version that I think [instert item] does this but really it doesn't because PS4 has an earlier version fsfr
@@kakashilover9231 you're so right lmao
Hidden item effects:
"Sissy Longlegs" can charm enemies when she touch them
"Lil' Dump" make synergy with "Ghost pepper" or "Bird's Eye" , spawns flames when he farts
"Luna" tears bonus persist in the Knife part 2 puzzle
Tainted Jacob can survive another hit in his lost form if he has an eternal heart. (Will not work if he has soul hearts) (Does work if he has only half a soul heart without any other containers)
Found a cool one in a run I had the other day. You need both Hemoptysis (tainted Azazel's sneeze item) and the Best Friend active item. When you put the Best Friend down and hit it with the Sneeze it will become magnetized to enemies for some reason. It works really well on early game bosses. I don't know if its a bug or intended, but it was cool to find for sure
3:14 The first time i used blank card on my first file i had the double active card on me so this happened, i was so confused that i thought that teleporting to the error room and then disppering was what blank card did, so i never used it until like 3 months later when i realised what it actually does.
not sure if this was mentioned already, but heartbreak can essentially give “lost” characters extra HP since it will protect them from lethal damage. works especially well on t. jacob. cool video!
Already covered in a previous video
Isaac spawns flame when he farts and has an item 'Bird's eye' or 'Ghost peper'. Hovever he also does that when mucormycosis (spore shot) procs (farts). This synergy usually leads to a room filled with flame
Fun synergy: Knockout Drops + My Reflection = Hook Punches
Can be combined with luck ups for more consistent punches, shot speed means faster punches, etc.
Not an item, but in Downpour II, the soul of cain [if used in the same room as the mirror] demolishes the mirror
I think it’s cause of the way opening doors with items works in the game, you don’t actually open doors in an uncleared room or leading to the to secret room, you literally destroy them with bombs or some item, and all other doors need some other item to open and when you offer that item they actually open by themselves after you insert it. But the mirror doesn’t use an item to open, it needs you to use the white fireplace and already has free access for Lost, Forgotten, their tainted versions and kinda T Jacob. So the soul of Cain just uses the only item interaction the door has, which is a bomb.
@@dungeaterfancam I didn't know The Forgotten could go inside of the mirror for free
@@mortaxtheduck7994 his soul form can, yes
I got that broken modem glitched item interaction totally by random a few weeks ago! I had no idea what triggered it thanks for the explanation!
The amount of time the creators invested in synergies with damn near countless hidden mechanics is what makes this game so replayable, fun, and mysterious. Thank you for the hardwork on your videos. I just got this game and I love these vids for learning more.
I experienced a glitch with Tainted Lazarus when playing with my brother. We got Poké Go and a golden heart. Every time we flipped we got the coins from the Golden heart and a Vis would spawn (sometimes in groups of 5). The game kept crashing
5:29 this might be explained, since T.Laz flips between alive and dead he can possibly be dropping his bones, but thats extremely unlikely
In similar fashion with "we need to go deeper", holding "the red key" or "red key piece" can help you find more easily secret rooms as they show where you can open a red room.
3:12 - Nice beatbox sound you got going there!
I feel sorry for pointing out that he said “tron pocket” last time and now he made the trinket name into “Tron pocket” and the description saying “You misspelled it!”.
Best bud, the fly familiar that appears when you take damage, does the most contact damage out of all familiars in the game, including sac dagger.
I hate the name of this item, literally the least cooperative familiar that comes out only after you get hurt (tied with dead bird and fat bird I guess) is called Best Bud, a guy named Intruder is more willing to help.
Death's List is guaranteed to pay out in trap rooms, since there are no enemies to kill.
10:34 isn't this because flushing enemies stops them from being killed, similar to the Uranus + Death's List combo? Knowing this, Ecoli could potentially pull off the same stunt.
Similarly, Berserk + Uranus is a terrible combo, as Uranus's freezing effect prevents you from killing enemies to increase Berserk's timer. Lusty Blood + Uranus may also be a terrible combo for the same reasons, but I haven't encountered that in game.
Not sure about berserk but I’m fairly certain lusty blood still works with Uranus
Using Glowing Hour Glass immediately after using Alabaster Box will activate the effects of the Alabaster Box in the previous room while not consuming it. The reason for that is because Alabaster Box has some sort of "activation" delay and this "activation" delay will not get canceled by going back in time one room.
The glowing hour glass + more options combo also works with the alt path items
Not sure how "hidden" it is, since most bomb items also work with Dr. Fetus, but I'm peculiarly fond of the Dr. Fetus + Rocket in a Jar combo for the ability to shoot actual rockets instead of bombs, removing most range penalties from the item. Great series, very informative =)
1:29 fun fact: if you have the faded polaroid gulped it doesnt open the ascent door
Something I found in Greedier mode, if you have multiple copies of Guillotine, the damage and tears increases stack for each copy, and can even exceed the soft tears cap by itself - I found it our by using Guillotine with Box of Friends as Lilith
Super fun bug I encountered: The Forgotten with ipecac and pluto. The knockback from hitting an enemy can let the player walk over holes. If you switch to the soul then back to the forgotten while over a pit, it gives the forgotten flight for the rest of the room (most likely as an anti-softlock feature)
Tron pocket is such a weird throwaway joke to put at the end of the video and I love it
Terra + The Finger
The Finger acquire Terra ability to break rocks, much faster (it's tick based) and wirelessy!
esau jr's familiar is actually more than twice as strong as abel (like if you were cain) and unlike abel cannot overlap itself
Using "Book of the dead" as T.Laz creates so many bones, that it's impossible to actually get hit
4:53 now that is some sick beats
Best isaac series I've ever watched.
10:45 funny how the poop spin when using flush
Ok. I always liked locust if war and Vade retro, but now I see they are even better then I thought
So many hidden secrets and such in this game. It’s so cool how they spent this much time doing all this.
1:30 me and my friend were playing as Azazel, we wanted tainted Azazel but we didn't have the polaroid or the negative even though we thought we had it unlocked. We thought we were screwed until we found faded polaroid and tested it and it worked. very awesome moment and yes we unlocked tainted Azazel.
Just a clarification on the Ipecac damage regarding half heart/full heart damage and invincibility frames; The i-frames are based on how much damage you take, regardless of the source. A full heart of damage will always give more i-frames than a half heart.
Thank you Vade Retro. Very cool!
4:18 Seems that this is caused by More Options forcing a different two-item treasure room layout when you rewind time, rather than just rerolling the items (so the same layout will always have the same items). Wonder if it still works like that in AB and AB+?
Hey, thanks for putting my comment in. Esau Jr. is a silly item, so I'm glad more people can learn about its silliness. I hope you don't mind longer comments, I prefer to make long comments instead of multiple shorter ones. Anyway, here's some more trivia:
- Magic Skin's item replacing effect also affects Lemegeton (meaning it can spawn Magic Skin wisps) and Modeling Clay (meaning it can turn into Magic Skin). While they don't let you spawn items, they do count as holding Magic Skin, meaning that it'll stop replacing items while active.
- If Modeling Clay turns into Birthright while playing as Tainted Lost, it'll give you infinite extra lives for the room, similar to how it works with Lemegeton. It's much less useful, since it only applies to the room it happens in, but hey, still something.
- You know how Hornfel drops bombs or a bomb item if you kill him after breaking his minecart? The helpless Hornfel spawned by using the Meat Cleaver on the Horny Boys does so too - but only if you kill him last. If you kill him before Loki, he won't drop anything.
- Great Gideon has unique waves of enemies if you fight him in Downpour/Dross (through the Emperor? card).
- If you use an Emperor? card while in the mirror world, it'll return you to the regular world. (You still get teleported to the extra boss room like usual, just in the regular world instead of the mirror one.) This can crash the game when combined with stuff like the Red Key - Red Rooms only exist in the world you create them in, so using the Emperor? while in a Red Room that only exists in the mirror world will cause a crash.
I don't know if that's been said before, but padlock trinket also allows you to open the ascension door in depths 2 or the heart door in mausoleum/gehenna 2, all with a single bomb!
(Again, this is from an older version so IDK if it still works)
1. "Ace of" cards also turn friendly monsters into the respective pickups. Including monsters spawned by Friend Finder and the Pokeball
2. Ghost Bombs make your bombs have spectral properties - you can push them through stuff, not to mention that Dr Fetus takes advantage of it
Night light remowe curse of the darkness
Not sure if this is a bug on the Switch version, but as T Laz if you use any item that gives you a familiar, it will double them up every time you flip meaning you can get an easy win pretty much every time. For example if you have Book of the Dead and get a bony, when you flip it will give you two bonie, then 4 then 8 etc. It also works with Friend Finder, soul of Apollyon and Book of Virtues. It was basically the only way I was able to get Boss Rush done in time as I could never be powerful or fast enough to make it to and through boss rush.
I don't know if this was posted before but if you change between character select menus, the classic isaac icon on the taskbar will swap between isaac and T. isaac
Items that grant flight allows tainted forgotten to fly over pits
Edit: 1.7.8 has updated and an unused boss has appeared
I know I'm late, but the synergy between flush and death's list might be for a different reason. a similar thing happens if you have death's list and some freezing effect like ice cube, where an enemy is not counted as "killed" if it is frozen instead. If you freeze an untargeted enemy, the skull will still remain. I think enemies getting flushed or turning into poop isn't considered the same as normally killing them, so the game just thinks you did it in the right order because it didn't see you kill anything in the *wrong* order
Esau Jr. grants flight.
This effect of flying remains active in The Knife Mineshaft.
Also it causes weird item trading effects if multiple characters use that jar.
I have a good one. Using the Forget me now on an XL floor puts you back on the first stage of the chapter
The Vaderetro - Delirium thing is crazy. So good to know.
thanks for letting me know these
I found out on a run yesterday that cracked rob can also be used to open the door to Ascent.
4:53 for a fire beat 🔥🔥🔥
You can donate to the donation machine multiple times even if it jams with glowing hourglass because you can reverse time, unjamming the donation machine, but keeping the progress and donating all the coins again
Bloody bombs (item that leaves red creep after exploding a bomb) can be placed down even if u don’t have any bombs. But at a cost of 1 red heart.
The real Secret is that it's the second 5th video Lol good vid
I knew I forgot something.
Use spin to win with wisp book (forgot name) and walk between rooms. When you enter room when use spin and has less charge wisps not remove
D-infinity combined with butter will cause every type of die to have the same amount of charges as the last one used, so if the player has butter when first picking it up, while it has two charges, then every other die will have two charges
I learned the hard way in greedier mode when I got D20 that 3 dollar bill gives magnito effect sometimes
Watched every video to make sure this hadn't been talked about yet. But with the item, Immaculate Heart, the orbiting tears are just far enough away from Isaac that he will not get damaged by them if they are Ipecac shots as the explosion is typically out of range. It's possible to get hurt by the explosion if you're moving a ton, but I've only seen it once or twice when I found it.
If it wasn't patched out already bone spurs isn't the only bugged interaction with this, anything that can add a number of supporting entities can reappear and double when you flip (friend finder and jar of wisps are example I've encountered, that duplicate until their maximum). I'm playing on switch, so it might've been patched out with newer versions
6:38 Maybe this also works with the rock-breaking tears from Sulfuric Acid.
Nope. It's just Terra.
Tainted Lazarus can actually duplicate any “followers’, so if you manage to get wisps as him you can switch between forms and it will cause the followers to duplicate. Examples include blue flies/spiders, friendly dips, and, best of all, wisps.
Additionally, esch time you switch to a character with a golden heart, it will cause the golden heart to activate, giving massive amounts of money very quickly and easily.
Both of these things happen on the console version, so I’m unsure if they still work on PC however.
most of those are console only
Me who plays with EID: Wow, that's the thing i knew my entire life
The gnawed leaf is very useful in characters like the lost or t the lost, but with t the forgotten is much better because you can move with the soul and you still immortal, but when the body shoots the effect ends
2:56
Luck: 420.69
NICE
Aquarius synergizes with Homing effects, the creep starts homing in on enemies with stuff like spoon bender
Isaac Guru, Im not sure if this was mentioned before but here goes:
"Found Soul Trinket comboes with Anima Sola and uses 2 chains as opposed to 1."
There is a glitch that is not recorded on the wiki for t laz on the switch. If you have a friendly monsters from friend finder or wisps or friendly poops it will duplicate the familiar everytime you flip
Suplex damage scaling with size is almost certainly a reference to Seismic Toss from Pokémon
I mean, couldn't it just be a reference to physics? That's why Seismic Toss was designed to work that way too after all :P
Something about Hallowed ground that wasn't mentioned before, is that its aura effects stack if multiple auras overlap. And this includes the chance to negate damage, which makes it even more useful for cheesing demon beggars and blood machines. (Unless the stacking thing was changed in repentance).
This is not true. Neither the stats or damage negation chance are stacked.
2:55 cool luck
Idk if you have done this one or if it counts as one but jacob's ladder + mom's knife + technology. Mom's knife + jacob's ladder only procs on hit, but adding technology gives mom's knife an electric trail and constant sparks at the end of the knife regardless of hitting something or not.
11:18
"tron pocket"
"You misspelled it!"
It seems that, at its final level, if Blood Puppy charges into a boss, it can sort of attach to that boss and continuously deal damage to it.
Edit: Note that it can happen with normal enemies too, it's just usually only noticeable on bosses because regular enemies die too fast.
The T.Lazarus bug also happens with book of deaths sometimes
I was watching this late at night and got flashbanged by all those sacred poops at 7:23
I believe invincibility frames are determined by the amount of damage you take in the game. For example, if you were to take 2 hearts of damage through that one enemy champion version that's double their average size (idk what they're called, so I'll call them Giga champions) you have a much more longer invincibility than if you were to take half a heart of damage, or a full heart of damage. Unless everyone already knew this lmao.
what mods do you use that allows you to set your own stats and repeat commands without the debug menu
4:54 haha it sounds like popcorns
5:09 also work with ,,book of death"
Actually some items as Tainted Laz are literally just... broken. More specifically those that spawn temporary familiars like Book of the Dead, Book of Virtues or even Lemegeton.
What I think the game wanted to happen is for the familiars to disappear when flipping and respawn for the Laz that spawned them, but the game never despawns them to begin with. So you just stack and stack these familiars until eventually you just have either an army of boneys or become a wisp beyblade.
Imagine getting a damage wisp from Lemegeton and just duplicating it with this bug.
8:17 That is cursed
2:06
That's a pretty nice luck stat
Honestly think black candle should make cursed trinkets become a pickup with similarities like cursed penny would turn into a penny with a high chance of becoming a dime instead or cursed skull turns into 2 bone hearts
There's something hilarious about watching everyone in the boss rush pop like a balloon
Wait…so if Flush adds downpour-like water to the room it is used in, does it make that room share the same synergy that jacob’s ladder has in the downpour/dross levels (more lighting chains and longer chain reach)?
