Ball of Tar is a passive item.

Effects

• Adds a chance to shoot slowing tears, reducing the speed of enemy movement and any projectiles they fire.
• Isaac leaves a trail of slowing Black creep.

Notes

• The chance to fire slowing tears depends on the luck stat, and the formula used to determine the chance is: $\frac1 { 10 - \left \lfloor \mathit{Luck} * 0.5 \right \rfloor}$
  • At base luck (0), the chance is 10%, maxing out at 100% at 18 luck.

Interactions

• Second Hand: The creep generated by Ball of Tar will disable the slowing effect.
