Talk:BRAINS!

Tips & Tricks
Hey guys just for those who are interested here are some short tips for this rather frustrating challenge.
 * Visit the shop on every floor for hearts and potential bomb upgrades. Destroy ALL rocks you can for coins, pickups and potential crawl spaces.
 * After completing a room, wait for your 3 brains to respawn. It's time-consuming, but helpful.
 * MAGIC FINGERS is an absolute saviour. Bosses aren't your real problem in this challenge; it's crowded rooms. You will have an abundance of coins thanks to Thunder Thighs. Try to use sparingly in difficult rooms to avoid tons of damage.
 * Any trinkets/items that up your coin value is essential to get the health and upgrades you need.
 * Since you'll be aiming for bomb upgrades, getting an abundance of bombs is a great second method of attack especially against chasing enemies. Also to blow up any slots and shops aside from the Fortune Teller.
 * Destroy all the skulls in the Depths with Thunder Thighs for the ever-useful Black Hearts.
 * Watch your feet in The Womb, some 'rocks' split into harmful projectiles.
 * Pills are risky, but the 'Balls of Steel', 'One makes you Small' and 'Pretty Fly' pills are very valuable. One Makes you Small makes it far easier to avoid your own explosions.
 * Cards and Runes can go a long way.
 * Obviously any defensive items are a great boon. Things like Infamy or the Aegis Shield. Remember to open any Golden Chests even if it's risky like in a Boss Battle room.

And most of all; you have to be PATIENT. Aim your shots, avoid damage, make use of the environment and stay calm. That's all I got for now. You guys see what you do with this info. -Helping Anon, ‎Wednesday ‎4 ‎november ‎2015
