- +1.50 range
- +0.40 tears
- +0.30 shot speed
- +1.5 damage
- +2 luck
Notes[edit | edit source]
If Isaac's active item has no charge bar and can used anytime, like
How to Jump, Dim Bulb's effects will be permanent.

- Dim Bulb is more than twice as powerful as
Vibrant Bulb; however, its effects are active less frequently.
- Dim Bulb has no effect when no active item is held.
- If the player has 2 items (via
Schoolbag), only 1 of them needs to be empty to receive the benefits.

Remote Detonator), you can swap to it after using the charged item to preserve the Bulb's effect.
