Finger! is a passive item added in The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth †.
Effect
- Grants Isaac a floating finger familiar that can be aimed with the fire buttons in all directions.
- The finger fires invisible spectral lasers, doing 10% of Isaac's normal damage. The lasers fire continuously.
- While not being aimed with the fire buttons, the finger points in the direction of movement or downwards if standing still.
Notes
- The Finger!'s lasers can apply Isaac's tear effects, which makes status effects trigger very often.
- Finger! will fire in the exact direction it's pointed, meaning it can be fired diagonally, or at any angle, if using a controller - the same effect as
Analog Stick. - The beam can be used to destroy TNT (among other destructible obstacles).
- The Finger! can do damage to enemies through obstacles and other enemies.
- The Finger! does not do contact damage.
