Trisagion is an unlockable passive item added in Booster Pack #4.

Effects

• Tears are replaced with piercing white blasts of light.
  • Blasts deal 33% of regular tear damage, but can hit the same enemy multiple times.
  • Blasts do not knock back enemies.

Notes

• Since the blasts can strike one enemy multiple times, low shot speed can be very beneficial whereas high shot speed may lower effective damage.
  • Walking backwards while firing can allow tears to move slower, making it useful for increasing damage output.

Synergies

• 8 Inch Nails+1.5 Damage Up. Replaces Isaac's tears with nails, which have increased knockback. / BlisterIncreases knockback of tears. / Pisces-1 Tear Delay, adds knock-back shots and increases tear size.: Adds knockback to blasts, which can not only significantly repel enemies when used correctly, it can deal a high amount of damage to enemies unable to escape the knockback.
• Chocolate MilkGrants charged tears that deal greater damage when fully charged.: Fully charged Trisiagon blasts deal 3 times more damage, reaching Isaac's base damage.
• GodheadIncreases damage and range while reducing tears and shot speed. Grants homing tears and tears gain a damaging halo.: Although the damaging aura isn't visible, it still exists and is not affected by Trisagion's damage reduction.
• Guppy (Transformation): As it hits multiple times, it spawns multiple flies per tear making it very strong.
• Homing tears: The blasts can deal extra damage as they remain in contact with enemies longer.
• IpecacReplaces tears with explosive and poisoning projectiles fired in an arc from the mouth.: Ipecac's damage boost applies; the light beam causes explosions dealing full damage when it impacts something or runs out of range. Use with caution. Having PyromaniacIsaac heals 1 heart instead of taking damage from an explosive source. Adds 5 bombs. or Host HatA host familiar that sits on Isaac's head and has a random chance to block enemy shots and retaliate with 3 tears. Grants immunity to explosions. is recommended.
• The Ludovico TechniqueInstead of firing tears, Isaac controls one floating tear that hover over obstacles. This tear deals constant damage when held in place over an enemy.: The beam becomes controllable, still dealing reduced damage but at very high rate.
• My ReflectionGives Isaac's tears a boomerang effect, and increases range and shot speed.: In addition to the usual effect, lengthens the Trisagion blasts into short flexible beams for a much larger damage-dealing area.
• Mysterious LiquidTears leave a small, short lasting pool of creep on impact or when their range is depleted.: Causes a large trail of creep. The effect stacks, which causes heavy damage (even to Hush).
• ProptosisTears start out massive with high damage, and then shrink down and become weaker over a short range.: Base damage is doubled and beam damage is boosted to about 65%. Blasts lose no power as they travel further, though the tips of the blasts deal very slightly less damage.
  • Proptosis + My ReflectionGives Isaac's tears a boomerang effect, and increases range and shot speed.: As the beams are longer, the damage decrease at the tips is more noticeable, but the net effect is still a large boost.

Interactions

• Azazel: Azazel's short range Brimstone overrides Trisagion.
• BrimstoneTears are replaced by a laser beam that pierces through all enemies and obstacles in its path and deals high damage. Can only be fired after a short charge-up period.: Overrides Trisagion.
• Cricket's BodyGrants -1 Tear Delay and reduces Range. When tears hit an object or deplete their range, they spawn 4 smaller tears, whose Range and Damage scale with Isaac's./ Compound FractureIncreases range. Tears turn into bones, which shatter into 1-3 bone shards upon hitting an enemy or obstacle./ The ParasiteIsaac's tears split in two when they hit something.: Split blasts are not generated on hitting enemies, only on obstacles and walls, as well as floors for Cricket's Body.

• Flat StoneTears bounce off the floor. Tears that hit an enemy after bouncing deal splash damage to all nearby enemies for 25% of Isaac's tear damage.: Blasts continually disappear and reappear as they "bounce". The bounces deal 25% splash damage based on Isaac's base rating, but the blasts cannot do their damage while they're disappearing, leading to an overall reduced effeciency.
• HaemolacriaTears are now fired in an arc. Upon hitting the floor, an obstacle, or an enemy, they burst into many smaller tears in all directions. Increases tear delay.: Functions otherwise as normal, but all blasts deal the same reduced damage.
• Holy LightIsaac has a random chance to fire a Holy tear, which, when it hits an enemy, will spawn a Crack the Sky-style light beam on the same enemy, dealing damage.: Overridden by Trisagion.
• Jacob's LadderTears fire sparks of electricity in random directions upon hitting an obstacle or enemy.: Electric arcs are not generated on hitting enemies, only on obstacles and walls.
• LachryphagyIsaac's tears decelerate as they travel. Upon stopping or hitting an obstacle, they burst into 8 tears in all directions. Tears can be fired into other tears to feed them, increasing their damage.: The blasts will slow down and float like Lachryphagy tears and eventually burst, but can not consume each other.
• A Lump of CoalThe more distance tears travel, the more damage they will do.: Nearly no effect; increases damage by around 5% when the hit is dealt by the tip of the blast.
  • A Lump of Coal + My ReflectionGives Isaac's tears a boomerang effect, and increases range and shot speed.: As the beam is longer, the amount of extra damage at the tip can be up to around 50%.
• Mom's KnifeIsaac's tears are replaced by a knife that pierces enemies, can travel through obstacles, and can hurt enemies while Isaac is holding it. Holding down the fire button before firing increases its range and power.: Overrides Trisagion.
• Multidimensional BabySpawns a familiar that will follow Isaac's movements on a 2.5 second delay. Tears that pass through the baby will be doubled and increase in speed.: The baby cannot duplicate Trisagion blasts.
• ParasitoidAdds a chance to fire an egg sack which spawns slowing creep and spawns a blue fly or spider upon hitting an enemy.: Overridden by Trisagion.
• Pop!Replaces Isaac's tears with eyeballs that can bounce off of each other. The eyeballs are not limited by range, and will instead dissipate when they stop moving or when hitting an enemy or obstacle.: The blasts will slow down and float like Pop! tears, but will not bounce off each other.
• Rubber CementTears bounce off walls, enemies, and environmental objects.: The blasts continue to pierce enemies, but will bounce off walls and obstacles.
• Sinus InfectionAdds a chance to fire a booger which sticks to enemies and poisons them.: Overridden by Trisagion.
