Notes

• If this item is triggered in the Flooded Caves, there is a chance that the black charger will be replaced by a Drowned Charger. The summoned Drowned Charger will behave like normal black chargers, and upon death will explode into 4 blood shots that do not damage the player.

• The allied chargers are affected by mass slowdown effects from items such as the Stop WatchRemoved in Afterbirth Automatically inflicts slow to all enemies in every room.
  Added in Afterbirth Upon taking damage, inflicts slow to all enemies for the current room., granting the Shadow Chargers a disadvantage.
• If Isaac has homing tears, they will home in on allied chargers.
