Godhead is a Special unlockable passive item.

Effects

• +0.5 Damage.
• -0.3 Tears.
• +1.2 Range.
• -30% Shot Speed.
• +0.8 Shot Height.
• Grants homing tears.
• Tears gain a damaging aura.

Notes

• The damaging aura gets bigger with items that make tears bigger, e.g. Cricket's Head, Polyphemus, and Pupula Duplex.
• The aura deals around 30% of Isaac's current damage and can hit up to 15 times per second.

Synergies

• Brimstone: Brimstone laser becomes slightly stronger and homes towards enemies. Laser does not receive the damaging aura.
• Compound Fracture/ Cricket's Body/ The Parasite: Main tears and burst tears retain all effects.
• Epic Fetus: Causes the crosshair to home in upon enemies. Missiles do not have a damaging aura.
• Explosivo: Causes damaging aura to grow once attached to an enemy.
• Euthanasia: When needles are fired, they retain homing and damaging aura.
• Glass Cannon: The huge tear gains the homing ability and fully scaled damaging aura, able to cover most of the screen with extreme damage.
• Lachryphagy: Fired tears and burst tears retain aura and homing effect.
• The Ludovico Technique: Tear increases in size and gains the damaging aura effect.
• A Lump of Coal: The size and damage of the aura increases as long as the tear is on screen.

Interactions

• Dr. Fetus: Bombs retain all effect except damaging aura.
• Haemolacria: Main tear retains all effects, but burst tears do not.
• Mom's Knife: Does not get the damaging aura.
• Piercing Tears: Once the tear hits the enemy, the aura also ceases to do damage to that particular target.
• Sinus Infection: The aura on booger tears stuck to an enemy won't hurt that particular enemy. Other enemies passing through it still take damage.
• Technology/ Technology 2/ Tech.5/ Tech X: Lasers get the homing effect but not the aura.
• Trisagion: Trisagion causes Godhead's aura to visually disappear; however, the aura is still there and can still damage enemies.

Trivia

• Godhead is another term for Godhood or overall Divine nature.
• The Godhead bears a strong resemblance to the Eye of Providence, Eye of God, or The Eye That Sees All, a common religious symbol also used in Christian religions. The three edges of the triangle may represent each part of the Holy Trinity.
• Godhead is arguably the hardest/most grueling item to unlock in Rebirth and Afterbirth, as it requires having to kill every final boss, on hard mode, with The Lost.
• The three triangles on the corners of the Godhead icon may be a reference to The Mind, The Body, and The Soul items.
• This item appears in the Afterbirth† release date trailer.
