Glitter Bombs is a passive item added in The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth.

Effects

• Grants 5 Bombs.
• Isaac's bombs have a chance to spawn a pickup or trinket when they explode.
• Isaac's bombs have a chance to charm random enemies in the room when they explode.

Notes

• Picking up a Golden Bomb, Dr. Fetus, Epic Fetus, or Number Two with Glitter Bombs allows infinite pickup generation.
  • In Greed mode, infinite pickup generation is still possible, but excludes coins, presumably to prevent the player from filling the Greed Donation Machine in a single run. However, this can be worked around if Isaac has the Swallowed Penny or Piggy Bank, since it does still produce health.
• There is a limit on the number of pickups that can be generated per floor, preventing items like Dr. Fetus or a Golden Bomb from providing unlimited resources. The maximum spawns per floor are between 63 and 65 pickups.

Synergies

• Anarchist Cookbook/ Curse of the Tower: Troll Bombs have a chance to spawn pickups.
• Bob's Brain: Has a chance to spawn pickups when exploding.
• Doctor's Remote / Epic Fetus: Missiles have a chance of spawning pickups upon exploding.
• Dr. Fetus: Bombs have a chance of spawning pickups upon exploding.
• Everything Jar: At eleven charges guarantees a golden bomb.
• Kamikaze!: Has a chance to drop a pickup each time it is used.
• Scatter Bombs: Each smaller bomb also has a chance of dropping a pickup.

Interactions

• Ipecac: No effect on shots.

Trivia

• The act of glitter bombing refers to showering individuals with containers of glitter.
