Talk:Dead Cat

Detailed effect
"Red Heart Slot" is set to 1. If you have no red hearts ( only black or soul, or both ), it will give you 1 full red heart ( with slot ) and 9 lives.

Judas' Shadow interaction
This page has no details on the interaction between Dead Cat and Judas' Shadow. I just did some testing, and picked up Judas' Shadow after picking up Dead Cat. Dead Cat deaths were coming before the Judas' Shadow deaths. I don't know if there's some sort of relevance to the order of picking them up, however. Does anyone know any better?

False info on the wiki page?
It says there that the D4 or other passive item rerolls don't remove the lives, I rerolled dead cat away and didn't get revived... I was The Lost and ultra greed was at 5% HP when a coin fell from the sky on my head.. gg

D4 explicitly excludes rerolling deadcat. See https://bindingofisaacrebirth.gamepedia.com/User:Blcd/RandomTidbits#D4 --Blcd (talk) 20:27, 16 April 2017 (UTC)

Dead Cat + The Lost
I have done two runs as The Lost aquiring the Dead Cat item and it seems that it turns you invincible. The Lost does flinch at every hit taken, but I have certainly gotten hit about thirty times and beat ??? in the chest at ease with the Dead Cat item as The Lost. Maybe someone can confirm or disprove that, as it would definitely add to the strategy of winning achievements as The Lost.
 * After some testing, I can conclude that either the synergy requires at least one other item (i.e. Dead Cat alone won't work), or the synergy doesn't happen at all. Do you happen to know what other items you had during that run? --JokerPixel (talk) 17:02, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi, I had the following items as seen in the screenshot. Can't really pin down what synergy caused the invincibility. (I was going to post a screenshot, but it wouldn't allow the link on here. The seed was K4AJ MDWR. The items I could identify: cloth hook, 50% off, diploma, dead cat, guppy's head, explosive thoughts, patch, screw, dead familiar (the one that blocks shots and triggers necronomicon), positive image
 * If, by the "positive image", you mean, then that could explain it. Only if it activates when damage is blocked by Holy Mantle, though. --JokerPixel (talk) 22:11, 6 February 2019 (UTC)
 * --- Yeah I think it was the Polaroid. By the time that synergy worked (whatever it was), it was an OP run and easy to finish, although I could never say if the next damage would kill me. :
