Synergies[ | ]

Compound Fracture/Cricket's Body/The Parasite: Main tears and burst tears retain all effects.
Explosivo/Mucormycosis: Causes damaging aura to grow once attached to an enemy.
Euthanasia: The aura of a needle tear will also do triple damage, but does not cause tear burst or instant kill.
Glass Cannon: The huge tear gains the homing ability and a much larger, more powerful damaging aura.
Lachryphagy: Fired tears and burst tears retain aura and homing effect.
- Piercing tears: When a tear bursts, the 8 smaller tears' auras can stack, doing massive damage to enemies within.
The Ludovico Technique: Tear increases in size and gains the damaging aura effect.
- Tear also gains homing effect. May cause the tear to get stuck near enemies.
A Lump of Coal: The size and damage of the aura increases as long as the tear is on screen.
Pulse Worm: The aura increases and decreases in size.
Saturnus: The orbiting tears also have the damaging aura, but without the homing effect.

Interactions[ | ]

Brimstone: Brimstone laser retains the homing effect, but doesn't receive the damaging aura.
Dr. Fetus: Bombs retain the homing effect, but don't receive a damaging aura.
Epic Fetus: The crosshair homes in upon enemies, but neither the crosshair nor the missiles receive the damaging aura.
Gello / Tainted Lilith: The cosmetic change also is applied to Gello.
Haemolacria: Main tear retains all effects, but burst tears do not.
- Burst tears also retain all effects.
Mom's Knife: Knife retains the homing effect, but doesn't get the damaging aura.
Piercing tears: Once the tear hits the enemy, the aura also ceases to do damage to that particular target.
- Enemies can be damaged by the aura after being pierced, but only if the tear is no longer in contact.
Sinus Infection: The aura on booger tears stuck to an enemy won't hurt that particular enemy, but still damages other enemies.
Technology/Technology 2/Tech.5/Tech X: Lasers retain the homing effect, but don't receive the damaging aura.
Trisagion: Causes Godhead's aura to visually disappear; however, the aura is still there and can still damage enemies.

In-game Footage[ | ]

Trivia[ | ]

Godhead is another term for Godhood or overall divine nature.
Godhead bears resemblance to the Eye of Providence, Eye of God, or The Eye That Sees All, a common Christian religious symbol. The three corners of the triangle may represent each part of the Holy Trinity.
The three corners of the triangle may also be a reference to The Mind, The Body, and The Soul items, as the colors of the corners match the colors of the items, that are also unlocked by The Lost.
This item appears in the Afterbirth † release date trailer.
