Binding of Isaac: Rebirth Wiki

Libra is a passive Zodiac item.

Effects

Notes

  • The balancing is based on Isaac as the character himself, and he gains no bonuses or penalties to any stat from simply having Libra on its own.
  • The balancing formula for Libra values damage a little lower than other stats. This means that the standard damage up effect will actually grant less damage than a standard speed up or range up effect will.
  • Stats are capped before Libra's balancing is applied. This means that if speed is maxed out (2.0) already, a Speed Up effect will not increase any stats at all.
  • Since tear height is not involved in the calculations, items such as Collectible Mini Mush iconMini Mush or (except in Rebirth)Collectible Kidney Stone iconKidney Stone that increase tear height but lower range are mostly detrimental.

Interactions

  • Collectible Blood Clot iconBlood Clot / Collectible Chemical Peel iconChemical Peel: The stat rebalancing doesn't affect the modified tears.
  • (except in Rebirth)Collectible D8 iconD8: D8's stat changes depend on which stats end up with which multipliers and their base values. Range has a high weight and is uncapped, and thus can result in a massive boost if it scores a high multiplier. Damage is also uncapped but, on the other hand, has a low weight.
  • Collectible Ipecac iconIpecac: Isaac rapidly fires small Ipecac bombs at a lower base damage.
  • Collectible Taurus iconTaurus: Isaac's damage and range increases as speed increases. However, if Isaac's base speed is not high enough, the invincibility never activates.

Synergies

  • Collectible Soy Milk iconSoy Milk: Isaac's Tears will be reduced (still faster than the normal maximum without Soy Milk) and his other stats will be increased significantly. Without other items, the damage will be higher than Collectible Polyphemus iconPolyphemus and speed will be maxed. Because of the Range increase, Isaac's tears fire at a height that lets them travel over obstacles like rocks or poops.

In-game Footage

Trivia

  • The symbol of the scales is based on the Scales of Justice held by Themis, the Greek personification of divine law and custom.
  • Libra gives 6 bombs, 6 keys, and 6 coins, a potential reference to the Number of the Beast (666).
