Fate's Reward

Fate's Reward is an unlockable passive item added in The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth.

Effects[]

Spawns a familiar that fires tears with the same damage and tear effects as Isaac's tears.
Fires at half the normal fire rate of a familiar.
The familiar is not affected by range/ tear height, only tear falling speed.
- Since tear height and shot speed ups lower tear falling speed in order to adjust Isaac's range, increases to either stat will decrease the familiar's range, and decreases to either stat will increase the familiar's range.

Familiars that follow behind Isaac have a certain priority in how close their position is to him over other familiars, with Fate's Reward having 5th priority.

Flat Stone: Familiar's tears will travel very far and then bounce once, traveling up and hitting the nearest wall.
Haemolacria: Will fire tears that burst into split tears. Does not affect fire rate.
Ipecac: Will fire explosive tears. Does not affect fire rate.
Lachryphagy + Brimstone: The tears fired by the familiar will eventually explode in a star-like pattern of Brimstone lasers if they don't hit anything.
