Portal opened after Mega Satan, into the Void I went, exited the run and continued as instinct in case of a crash, bam, I died, 1 hp and 8 lives. It's absolutely magical to see 4 hp + 9 lives as the Keeper, I couldn't lose now. I remembered I had Glitter Bombs + Scatter Bombs so I used them to farm up some coins in an empty room and got myself up to 4 coins of health. Dead Cat put me to 1 coin, Greed's Gullet did nothing, so I was scared. And I had 70 odd coins, I'd read about Greed's Gullet being finicky but I tried it. The run tried its best though, when I got to the chest I found Dead Cat and Greed's Gullet in the chests. Room, or even with bombs and a supply of money in your donation machine, plus you can get some really nice items from 7 hits to the spikes. The Keeper with a swallowed penny is almost guaranteed Mega Satan with a single Sac. I changed my tactics, my goal was no longer to beat Hush but to focus on killing Mega Satan, the cumulative percentage chance of a portal opening from killing everything beyond It Lives made more sense, plus the build and speed requirements of getting to Hush are just too steep a price. Had a breaking run from finding Restock in a shop and just bought everything I could. note to self: don't hug the top of the screen in the Delirium fight because of Mama Gurdy / The Hauntįinally, Delirium killed with everyone. I resurrected from Guppy's Collar but now I just straight up don't want to fight him, the fight is just so bad all this effort is likely wasted.Įdit2: that run died Delirium insta stomped me from half a screen away as Monstro while I was at the top of the screen, then transformed into Mama Gurdy and trapped me inside her, he had like 20% health left. I got him to half health, he was turning into Mama Gurdy, summoning spikes everywhere, turned into a lil haunt and bum rushed me so fast I couldn't pick up a penny before dying. I also really hope they increase the chances of or adding another method to reach The Void, having an awesome run with Godhead clearing through the Chest and not having a shot at Delirium just feels so dissatisfying, all that effort for nothing.Įdit: I have a run right now sitting outside Delirium's door as The Keeper, Tech X, 99 Money = Power, other damage up's, Holy Mantle, Swallowed Penny. It feels like, unless much more rebalancing occurs, he needs more invincibility frames after getting hit, so baking Blind Rage into his character, because it became annoyingly frequent where I'd drop a penny on hit but couldn't reach it in time before dying because so many enemies are obstructing the path now. He can't hold any of it back, so even what was normally a decent defensive start like Holy Mantle can have trouble. His low speed and low fire rate just can't do anything when rooms are filled, or are being filled by portals, champions in practically every room and all of them trying to hug your face off. The Caves, in particular the Flooded Caves are an absolute run killer for him it seems, every problem added in AB+ gets exacerbated while playing The Keeper. Had a handful of really decent runs just lose to completely inane mistakes, a could of runs got to Hush and nearly had him, hell one of them, a Tech X run, I killed Hush, but in his dying breath he fired his eye lasers while bullets filled the screen, I had no time to reach my dropped penny before dying. Spent today playing (read: resetting) nothing but The Keeper, and what a soul crushing experience it was / is. When I break Greed Mode with a specific item in mind, I never take Chaos until after I have that item, because what it's mainly adding is the Devil and Angel pools, at the cost of breakfasts galore. So eventually the odds of getting the specific item you need is astronomically low. Maggie's bow is unfortunately in the largest pool only. If the pool has nothing available, it will generate Breakfast, not pulling from any other pool first.Īs a result, Chaos will give a ton of Breakfasts because you will end up with smaller pools completely empty, while the biggest pools will only rarely be picked to generate an item from. Only when the item room pool runs out will you start getting breakfasts.Ĭhaos, on the other hand, picks a random pool, then it picks a random item from that pool. In a normal run, if the pool it's trying to pull from runs out, it will start pulling from the basic item room pool. The way Isaac's items work is that there is a list of item pools, like Item Room, Boss Room, Devil Deal, Boss Rush, Library, Angel, Shop, and several more which are for less obvious reasons.
