(in Afterbirth † and Repentance)

Apple! is a passive item added in The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth †.

Effects[]

  • Adds a chance to fire razor blades that deal quadruple Isaac's tear damage.
  • +0.3 tears.

Notes[]

  • The chance to fire a razor blade depends on the luck stat, and the formula used to determine the chance is:
    • At base luck (0), the chance is 6.66%, maxing out at 100% at 14 luck.

Synergies[]

  • Cricket's Body / Compound Fracture / The Parasite: When razors are fired, the split tears will also be razors and do quadruple damage. The Parasite's split tears look like normal tears.
  • Dr. Fetus: Adds a chance for the bombs to deal increased damage. See the page for the specific damage formula.
  • (except in Repentance) Glass Cannon: Adds a chance to fire a giant razor that does roughly triple damage.
    • (in Repentance) Adds a chance to fire a giant razor that does quadruple damage (x40 + 10 flat damage).
  • Haemolacria: Adds a chance for tears to do quadruple damage. Burst tears will also do quadruple damage if the main tear does quadruple damage.
  • Technology Zero: When razors are fired, they will connect to other tears via electricity. The electricity also does quadruple damage.
  • Lachryphagy: Tears can be fed to razors, increasing damage and splitting into 8 razors after a little while. If razors are fed to the tears, the razor damage doesn't apply to the tear both before and after splitting.

Interactions[]

  • (except in Repentance) Brimstone: Each entire beam has a chance to gain the damage boost.
    • (in Repentance) Each tick of the beam has a chance to gain the damage boost.
  • (except in Repentance) Tech X: Overrides Apple!.
    • (in Repentance) Each tick of the laser rings have a chance to gain the damage boost.
  • Tough Love: With 14 luck, overrides Tough Love, as the razor blades do more damage anyways. With 13 luck, Apple and Tough Love each have about an equal chance to trigger.
  • (in Repentance) Almond Milk: Razor blades visually change to a golden color like (in Repentance) Golden Razor

In-game Footage[]

Trivia[]

  • Both the item itself and the description is a reflection of one of Isaac's nightmares between floors that involves him finding a razor blade inside a piece of candy.
  • The item and pickup quote are a reference to the urban legend of giving away candies with razor blades hidden inside of them as a way of harming people.
