- At base luck (0), the chance is 10%, maxing out at 50% at 20 luck.

- This means that the chance starts at 8% at 0 luck, minimizes at 0% at -4 luck, and maximizes at 100% at 46 luck.

- Blood Oath: For each half heart damaged by Blood Oath, Gimpy has a chance to drop a soul heart. Synergy further improves with luck.

- Ace Cards: Enemies that are turned into pickups can't drop hearts.
- E. Coli/Flush!: Enemies that are turned into poop can't drop hearts.
