I was guppy with monstro's lung and something that gave me splash damage and a couple damage ups and I was a goddamn destroyer of worlds.

Looks like My Reflection as well, the way it follows Isaac.

Anti-grav too maybe, with the way the teeth just sort of float there for a bit.

Opposite corner can still get you hit, hide in an adjacent corner instead!

Example: If it starts upper-left, hide lower-left or upper-right.

I unlocked the keeper via cheat engine just to see how bad he was.

The answer:Very

Counterpoint: the Keeper makes every run tense, and although it is frustrating at times, i am having a blast trying to get all his unlocks (only missing boss rush now... Stupid cursed eye on curse of the blind)

I don't know if I've ever had a more heart racing video game experience than Keeper vs hush and mega Satan! Now that I've done it and there are no longer any stakes, I probably won't try to fight them again though!

411 hours later I finally beat MegaSatan with The Lost. Any tips with The Keeper?

Don't take pills (without phd). One accidental health down and you're screwed.

I'm ignoring all the rune challenges except for jera, because none of the other runes are that great. Otherwise just check the rewards on the wiki and do the ones that look the best.

You’ll want Algiz for the Lost vs. Delirium/Hush/Greedier fights too

Mega Satan really needed the armor. I got all the completion marks on AB+ and there was only one (exceptionally bad) run where I didn't just evaporate each of his phases instantly.

Counterpoint: let us evaporate him

No Wave posted:

I've been splitting items more recently. Esau is better to stack in general because he has a higher damage multiplier but there are enough diminishing returns for tears and flat damage eventually that it's not bad putting some damage on Jacob, plus I find having damage on both protects them a little better. Obviously if you find a mushroom/cricket's head/sacred heart/anything else explicitly multiplicative it's better to stack one harder.

I find when I play jacob takes a lot more damage for whatever reason.

I got guppy’s collar with Esau on a Beast run and i died about fifteen times before killing the beast. Is it broken or should I start buying lottery tickets?

Yeah Censor is a run-ruining item if you are trying to beat Mother, Mega Satan, Hush, or The Beast. It's good against Ultra Greedier though!

I have most of my unlocks done, except for Tainted Lazarus and Jacob. I'm hoping for some kind of patch that makes them less miserable first. However: how the gently caress do you beat the Lamb in under 20 minutes?

sacrifice room is your friend. Otherwise grab a shovel and go!

How do you beat Greedier mode with Jacob and Esau? i always get caught on rocks i can’t see because there’s a million enemies on the screen

I just did it by getting slice and dice, slicing the two Esaus in half, and killing them. Doing it that way doesn't make you a ghost.

I‘m not playing the tainted one, so unfortunately i can’t murder the albatross

Complaining here did it, so now i just gotta get hush and delirium with these tools... shouldn’t be too bad, right? Right?!?

Hush isn't too bad with J&E, as long as you have an item to counter the bullets, like the Soul, Shielded Tears, Psy/Bot Fly, Jelly Belly/Metal Plate/The Mask, Dry Baby, Algiz, reverse Magician, several black orbital flies, etc. Just line J&E up behind each other, so only one character is facing Hush at any time, this should make most of the really bad attacks dodgable.


Good luck with delirium lol, go for a gamebreak or something

oh man, i was rolling with a sacred heart triple shot, delirium, tons of hp, etc. But then i found genesis for the first time ever and curiosity got the better of me (i like to try to figure out what items do before reading the wiki), and now i know it is a garbage tier item if you are Jacob and Esau... RIP, chosen run

I've been chasing the T. Lost Delirium check so long, that I think it will break my brain when I play a "regular" character again.

This is the biggest roadblock I've hit since the Greedier check for the Lost.

Honestly, I'll be shocked if the build I finally win with isn't Book of Shadows w/ several battery items.

For me it’s the Beast… i keep being stupid on the ascent
