(in Repentance)

Lemegeton is an activated item added in The Binding of Isaac: Repentance.

Effects

  • Upon use, Lemegeton will grant a random passive item from the current room's item pool as an orbital familiar.
    • These familiars can block up to 4 shots and/or get hit by 2 explosions before being destroyed. When the familiar is destroyed, the item it granted is lost.
    • Familiars also deal contact damage to enemies equal to 2x Isaac's damage per tick (4x Isaac's damage per second). They do take contact damage.
    • Isaac can have up to 24 familiars: an inner counterclockwise ring of 6, a middle clockwise ring with 8, and an outer counterclockwise ring of 10.
      • Using Lemegeton while Isaac already has 24 causes the first one to be replaced.
  • Template:Transf

Notes

  • Character Tainted Bethany iconTainted Bethany starts with this item in the consumable slot.
    • When playing as Tainted Bethany, picking up Collectible 4.5 Volt icon4.5 Volt will cause Lemegeton to no longer gain charges as long as her normal active item has empty charges.
    • Rotten Hearts cannot be used to charge Lemegeton.
  • Lemegeton can only give items that have the "Summonable" item tag.
  • Items given by Lemegeton are separate from the normal item pools and his current collection of items. This has the following effects:
    • Isaac can still normally find items that were previously summoned by Lemegeton.
    • Isaac can have multiple wisps of the same item.
    • Wisps cannot be rerolled by Collectible Missing No. iconMissing No. or the Collectible D4 iconD4/Collectible D100 iconD100.
    • Wisps do not count towards transformations.
    • Summoned items do not count towards the Collection Page.
  • Collectible Magic Skin iconMagic Skin can be spawned by Lemegeton if it has been used in the current run.
  • Picking up Collectible Rosary iconRosary will allow Collectible The Bible iconThe Bible to be summoned by Lemegeton, taking up a slot while not providing anything.
  • Items that would normally add or remove hearts/consumables (such as Collectible Boom! iconBoom!, Collectible Breakfast iconBreakfast, Collectible Abaddon iconAbaddon etc...) do not do so if given by Lemegeton.

Synergies

  • Collectible Car Battery iconCar Battery: Will generate 2 orbital passives.
  • Collectible Chaos iconChaos: Items will be selected from random pools, even if in a specific room's pool.
  • Collectible Rock Bottom iconRock Bottom: Stat increases remain even after the ghost has been destroyed.
  • Collectible Sacrificial Altar iconSacrificial Altar: Every ghost item will be converted to a Half Soul Heart. Familiars created by Lemegeton are sacrificed normally and also spawn full Soul Hearts.
  • Collectible Satanic Bible iconSatanic Bible: Using Lemegeton in a boss room after activating the Satanic Bible on that floor will pull from the devil room pool, even against bosses that don't drop items.

In-game footage

Trivia

  • The Lemegeton is another name for the Lesser Key of Solomon, an anonymous grimoire focused on demonology that was compiled in the 17th century.

Bugs

Bug Bug! After using Collectible Sacrificial Altar iconSacrificial Altar, Isaac keeps the passive effects until the next use of Lemegeton, which erases all sacrificed passive items.
Bug Bug! If you save and reload while you have item wisps generated from Lemegeton, all wisps will be condensed into the middle clockwise ring, even if this would result in more wisps on that ring than normally allowed. This also allows further wisps to be generated on the inner and outer rings.
