Cricket's Body is a passive item.

Effects[ | ]

  • When Isaac's normal tears disappear (either from hitting the ground or hitting something else), they spawn 4 smaller tears.
    • Each smaller tear deals half of Isaac's normal damage.
    • Split tears are scaled down by 0.6x from the main ones, ignoring damage-based size reduction.
  • (except in Repentance) Tear size multiplier: 1.2x.
  • (in Repentance) +0.1 tear size.
  • (except in Repentance) -1 tear delay (increased rate of fire)
    • Since this directly affects tear delay instead of changing the tears stat, it allows Isaac's rate of fire to go over the normal maximum rate.
    • Tear delay decreases are more noticeable and are a greater increase to DPS when the tears stat is high.
  • (in Repentance) +0.5 fire rate.
  • (except in Repentance) -10 range.
  • (in Repentance) 0.8x range multiplier.

Notes[ | ]

  • Split tears will inherit the main tear's status effect, if any.
  • If Isaac has less than (except in Repentance)10 range/(in Repentance)10 tear height, the split tears appear but cannot cause damage before hitting the floor.

  • Collectible Bob's Rotten Head iconBob's Rotten Head: Bob's Rotten Head splits into four smaller heads on detonation.

  • (in Afterbirth † and Repentance)Collectible Haemolacria iconHaemolacria: Main tears can split as they burst upon hitting the floor, an obstacle, or an enemy. The split tears can burst, but burst tears from main tears do not split.
    • Cricket's Body's x0.8 range multiplier does not stack with Haemolacria's own x0.8 range multiplier.

  • (in Afterbirth † and Repentance)Collectible Lead Pencil iconLead Pencil/Collectible Monstro's Lung iconMonstro's Lung: All tears fired will splash after landing. Increased damage potential only noticed when firing into groups, due to the random pattern of each tear when it splashes.
  • Collectible The Parasite iconThe Parasite: Eight split tears instead of four.
  • Collectible Tiny Planet iconTiny Planet: The split tears orbit Isaac instead of spreading.
  • Collectible Tough Love iconTough Love: Teeth tears will split into 4 smaller teeth.

  • (in Rebirth)Collectible Dr. Fetus iconDr. Fetus: Reduces range, bombs do not split.
    • (in Afterbirth and Afterbirth †) Reduces range, the bombs fired by Dr. Fetus will split into smaller bombs, much like Collectible Scatter Bombs iconScatter Bombs.
    • (in Repentance) Increases range, the bombs fired by Dr. Fetus will split into smaller bombs, much like Collectible Scatter Bombs iconScatter Bombs.
  • Collectible Epic Fetus iconEpic Fetus: Only tear stat change applies.

    • (in Repentance) Not recommended. Unlike other similar items, Cricket's Body's x0.8 range multiplier does stack with Number One's own x0.8 range multiplier, thus drastically reducing range.
  • Piercing tears: Tears will only split after landing on the ground.
  • Spectral tears: Tears will only split after landing on the ground.
  • (except in Repentance)Collectible Technology iconTechnology/(in Afterbirth and Afterbirth †)Collectible Tech X iconTech X: Overrides Cricket's Body. Stat effects still apply.
