Talk:Tonsil

Unknown effect
We are unsure whether the trinket can spawn more familiars before being destroyed. Possibly there is only a chance for the trinket to be consumed when spawning a new familiar.

I think it should still be stated that there is no known further effect - it seems likely it does more than spawning a tear blocking familiar. Kcfgs9ikgmhad92o (talk) 03:19, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

Can be bought
I did a "broken run" the other day on regular greed mode. The aim was to buy the broken modem as it was my final unlocked item. Little did I know it's not part of the greed mode shop pool.

Upon having Chaos! for sale, I left it there to be bought very last after exhausting all of the item pools from other sales in the shop. One of the very last items for sale on either the 4th or 5th (from the left) sale slot was the Tonsil familiar, shortly after which I only got milk cartons.

I'm thinking it may be possible to find the Tonsil familiar if it is the very last item left in the Treasure Room item pool. With that being said, Chaos! will make it very difficult to find, if not impossible.
