Revelation

Revelation is an unlockable passive item added in The Binding of Isaac: Repentance.

Effects

 * Gives Isaac flight and two soul hearts.
 * Continuously firing for 2.35 seconds allows Isaac to fire a powerful holy laser when the fire buttons are released, similar to the attacks used by the Angel bosses.
 * The laser deals Isaac's damage per tick (up to a maximum of 15 times) and can be aimed diagonally. It lasts for ~1.28 seconds (77 frames).
 * Tear delay has no effect on the charge time of the laser — it is fixed at 2.35 seconds.

Synergies

 * When the laser hits the prism, it will split in four.
 * The laser fires in place, not following Isaac.
 * The laser loops around, potentially hitting enemies twice.
 * The laser will have reduced range, but will spawn a stream of red Lachryphagy tears.
 * The laser will split both ways at 90 degree angles on contact with an enemy.
 * If a Revelation laser is shot through the baby, it will double the laser.
 * The laser will have reduced range, but will shoot out eyeballs rapidly at its end.
 * + : Lasers modified by Multidimensional Baby are no longer affected by Pop!, being normal length and not firing additional eyes out the end.
 * The laser will bounce off the walls for a short distance.
 * The laser will home in on enemies in a very effective way.
 * Brain Worm: The laser will bend completely to hit an enemy, effectively acting as a better form of homing on single enemies and bosses.
 * /: As the laser deals Isaac’s damage, but is not affected by tear delay, the DPS of the laser is greatly increased.

Interactions

 * /: As the laser deals Isaac’s damage, but is not affected by tear delay, the DPS of the laser is greatly decreased.

 * If the Revelation beam and the Tech X are both charged, it will sometimes fire the Revelation beam first and the Tech X ring at the end of it.

Trivia
