Effects

• Spawns a stationary fly turret that shoots at enemies up to 3 tiles away
• The flies are completely invulnerable and ignored by enemies.
• The flies deal 2 damage per shot.
  • The flies deal 3.5 damage per shot.
• This item belongs to the Oh Crap set. Collecting three items from this set will transform Isaac into a walking pile of poop.

Notes

• A maximum of 35 flies can be spawned in one room.
  • A maximum of 64 flies can be spawned in one room.
• Flies spawned by Brown Nugget as Tainted Lazarus will disappear when flipping to his other form, and will not reappear when flipping back.

Synergies

• Book of Virtues: Spawns brown wisps on the middle ring. These wisps shoot 3 times faster with 1/3rd of the damage of an average wisp. The wisps automatically shoot at nearby enemies instead of in the direction Isaac shoots. The wisps do not persist between rooms.
• Car Battery: Two flies will be spawned instead of one.
• BFFS!: Flies are larger, but do not deal increased damage.
  • BFFS!: Flies are larger and deal double damage. Can only be doubled once.
• Hive Mind: No effect.
  • Hive Mind: Flies are larger and deal double damage. Can only be doubled once
• Sacrificial Altar: Spawned fly turrets count as familiars for sacrificing; dropping the Brown Nugget will despawn the most recent fly turret, but older ones will remain and can be sacrificed.

Trivia

• Brown Nugget was originally an unofficial item which was supposed to showcase the modding capabilities of Afterbirth+ in the PAX 2016 livestream. However, all items included in the demo were later added to the final game.
