Soy Milk
Soy Milk is a passive item.
Contents
Effect[edit | edit source]
- Reduces tear delay by the formula: (delay / 4) - 2
- 0.2x damage multiplier
- 0.5x tear size multiplier
Notes[edit | edit source]
- At base tear rate, Soy Milk sets the player's tear delay to the game's minimum value of 1, for 15 tears per second. This is much lower than the normal minimum tear delay; see the tear delay explanation page.
- At base damage, Soy Milk is a very small DPS up. With a tear delay of 8 or lower, Soy Milk becomes a DPS down. The more tears per second before obtaining Soy Milk, the greater the decrease in DPS.
- Soy Milk's damage down stat also significantly decreases tear size.
- The endless stream of tears effectively increases directional knockback.
- Due to the high fire rate, items that cause tears to inflict status effects activate more frequently.
Soy Milk is a special item.
Synergies[edit | edit source]
20/20: The shot pattern may help in controlling enemy knockback, in addition to dealing up to double damage.
Blood Clot: +1 damage bonus on Blood Clot tears is unaffected by the damage penalty.
Chemical Peel: +2 damage bonus on Chemical Peel tears is unaffected by the damage penalty.
Chocolate Milk: Shots cannot be charged, but Isaac gains a flat +1 damage up after the Soy Milk penalty.
Explosivo: Despite the tiny appearance of the bomb tears, the explosions will do normal explosion damage. Due to the massive fire rate, many bombs can be applied in extremely quick succession, decimating anything after a short delay.
Dr. Fetus: Allows for incredibly fast firing medium damage bombs.
Ipecac: The very fast rate of fire fills the screen with low damage explosions.
Libra: Decreases fire rate slightly, but massively increases damage, range, and speed. Tear height is also massively increased, meaning tears can hit enemies through obstacles without spectral effect.
Lost Contact: Extremely effective at blocking shots.
A Lump of Coal: Significantly increases tear damage as they get further away. Even with only this synergy, individual tear damage appears to approach starting tear damage when firing over longer distances.
Mysterious Liquid: Each shot creates creep that deals reasonable damage but stacks with every shot, causing hefty damage.
- Piercing tears: Causes tears to affect enemy movement less for better accuracy, though also removes the advantage of rapidly knocking back enemies.
Pisces: Greatly increases knockback, allowing tears to pin enemies against walls.
Technology Zero: The near-constant stream of tears will have electricity chained between them, providing an electrical net of damage making it almost impossible to not hit an enemy. This can greatly help offset the lowered damage by increasing the number of hits.
Interactions[edit | edit source]
Epic Fetus: Damage of missiles will be decreased accordingly, but unlike normal tears, there is still a fixed timed delay between firing missiles
Proptosis: The low-damage, lowered size tears disappear extremely quickly, greatly reducing range.
Technology 2: Half of the Soy Milk tears are replaced by constant laser, but damage down compounds.
