Interactions[ | ]
- Azazel: Not recommended. Range penalty is the only effect.
- Dr. Fetus: Not recommended. Bombs are slow to fire and will pass through enemies, making it far more difficult to hit them with explosions.
- Bombs also deal 2.5x Isaac's damage to enemies when passing through them.
- Epic Fetus: Overrides Dead Onion, although stat effects apply.
- Brimstone: Overrides Dead Onion, although stat effects apply.
- The Ludovico Technique: Not recommended. Tear moves very slowly making it hard to kill mobile enemies.
- Mom's Knife: Overrides Dead Onion.
- Monstro's Lung: Fires a barrage of large tears that disappear at close range. Spectral and piercing effects make it very effective at close range.
- My Reflection: Not recommended. Tears will travel a very short distance before they return to Isaac and eventually disappear.
- Proptosis: Not recommended. While tears do massive damage at short range, it makes it a lot easier to be damaged by explosive enemies or enemies that do contact damage.
- Rubber Cement: Edges of tears retain both piercing and spectral effects; however, the center of the tear will lose them and bounce.
- Sulfuric Acid: Not recommended. Acid Tears no longer impact objects and can no longer open Secret Rooms.
- Acid Tears can break objects (but still can't open doors or Secret Rooms).
- Technology: Laser size is increased.
