- The familiar's damage scales from ~2-6, and tear delay scales from ~12-30.
- The familiar takes the appearance of a random co-op baby.
- The familiar is randomized upon entering a new floor.
Notes[edit | edit source]
- The tear effects available are the same as on the
Fruit Cake item.
- The familiar's tear appearance isn't linked to the normal effect such tears would have.
- For instance, piercing-looking tears might not go through enemies and
Sinus Infection tears might not stick, while tears that do not look like
Compound Fracture tears can still split on hit.
- For instance, piercing-looking tears might not go through enemies and
- Some tear effects like
Proptosis and
Tiny Planet do not have their associated stat boosts and thus are very ineffective.
- Familiars with the
Serpent's Kiss effect can drop Black Hearts when an enemy is killed.
- Familiars will not do contact damage.
