Not to be confused with Tech.5 or Technology.

Technology 2 is a passive item.

Effect

• Replaces the character's right eye tears with an unlimited range piercing laser which fires continuously.
• x0.65 Damage multiplier.
• The laser deals 20% of Isaac's damage per tick, compounding with the damage down.

Notes

• Tear delay is effectively doubled, as Isaac will do a bit of the animation to fire a right eye tear, but no tear will come out.
• Charged shots are not affected by the effective tear delay down, as they don't use the alternative left eye/right eye fire scheme.
• As Cain can only fire tears from his right eye, Technology 2 will replace his tears altogether, unless he has Technology or a charged attack.
• Because Lilith is blindfolded and relies on her Incubus , the only effect gained from Technology 2 is the damage down.
• Unlike Technology , Technology 2 doesn't override Azazel-inherent Brimstone and the laser can be fired while the Brimstone is charged.
  • Technology wraps around Brimstone beams and does not override Azazel's Brimstone.

Interactions

• 8 Inch Nails : The laser will constantly knock back enemies.
• Brimstone : Overrides Technology 2, but retains the reduced damage.
  • Laser fires continuously while Brimstone is charging.
• Chocolate Milk : Tears shot from the left eye will gain the charged shot effect but the laser is unaffected.
• Dead Onion : Overridden by Technology 2.
• Epic Fetus : Both the Technology 2 laser, and the Epic Fetus missiles will be active.
• Incubus :  Decreases damage of Incubus' tears. Incubus does not fire a continuous laser.
• Ipecac : Explosive shots can be fired while preserving Technology 2 laser, and laser damage increases dramatically while also gaining the poison effect.
• Lead Pencil : Technology 2 prevents Lead Pencil and normal tears from firing.
• Loki's Horns : The laser will occasionally shoot in a cross pattern keeping the unlimited range and only attacking once.
• The Ludovico Technique : Isaac simultaneously controls a tear and fires the Technology 2 laser; however, Isaac will only fire the Technology 2 laser in the direction that the tear is currently facing.
• Marked : Isaac simultaneously controls a big red target on the ground and fires the Technology 2 laser in the cardinal directions.
• Mom's Knife : Mom's Knife and Technology 2 do not interfere with each other.
• Monstro's Lung : Tears shot from the left eye will gain the charged shot effect but the laser is unaffected.
• Ouija Board : Tears shot from the left eye will gain the spectral effect but the laser is unaffected.
• Soy Milk : Soy milk tears are replaced by constant laser, but damage down compounds.

Synergies

• 20/20 : Isaac has normal 20/20 effect while also firing Technology 2's laser. Fire rate of normal tears halved.
• Azazel: The Technology 2 laser continuously fires as Azazel charges his Brimstone. Damage is still reduced.
• Blood Clot : Since Isaac's right eye is replaced by Technology 2, he can only fire tears from his left eye, which gives all his tears higher damage and range.
• Chemical Peel : Since Isaac's right eye is replaced by Technology 2, he can only fire tears from his left eye, which gives all his tears higher damage.
• Cursed Eye : Laser fires continuously while Cursed eye is charging, retaining the teleporting effect.
• Eve's Mascara : Increases damage without reducing Technology 2's rate of fire.
• Fire Mind : Laser will set enemies on fire but will not explode.
• God's Flesh : Laser has a chance to shrink enemies for approximately 5 seconds
• Homing Tears: Bends the laser to damage most enemies in front of Isaac.
• Lost Contact : The laser destroys all hostile projectiles that come into contact with it.
• A Lump of Coal : Damage increases the further away the enemy is, on a multiplier that is roughly +20% per tile of distance. This allows for a mitigation of damage penalty from longer distances.
• Mom's Contacts : The laser causes enemies to enter a state of "perma-freeze" if constantly fired upon.
• Mom's Eye : Gives a chance for Isaac to fire the laser from behind along with his primary tears.
• Mom's Eyeshadow : The laser gains a pink color and a high chance to charm any enemies it hits.
• Mutant Spider : Isaac fires four tears at once while also firing Technology 2's laser, although with much lower fire rate.
• The Mulligan : Shots from Technology 2 will trigger the spawning of flies extremely rapidly.
• My Reflection : Laser is bent as Isaac moves, then gradually becomes straight as he stands still.
• Pisces : Laser can knock back enemies well due to its high fire rate.
• Polyphemus : Greatly increases the laser's damage, counteracting the damage penalty.
• Rubber Cement : Laser bounces off of walls.
• Technology : Equips two lasers that can be fired at the same time. As Technology is always fired from the right eye, it is not affected by the effective tear delay down.
• Tiny Planet : The laser spirals around Isaac once and then go straight again.
• Spider Bite : The laser turns white and applies the chance to slow in rapid succession.
• The Wiz : Fires two shots aimed diagonally from the laser.
