Mars is a passive item added in The Binding of Isaac: Repentance.

Effects

• Double tapping a direction makes Isaac quickly dash in that direction.
  • Isaac is immune to damage from all sources during the dash, with the exception of Blood Donation Machines, Devil Beggars, and similar self-damage active items.
  • The dash deals damage equal to 4x Isaac's damage + 8.
  • The direction of the dash can be changed by holding another button.
  • The dash has an approximate 3-second cooldown.

Notes

• The dash can be used to enter curse rooms and open spiked chests/mimic chests without taking damage.
• The dash can destroy Shopkeepers.
• With a controller, tapping the joystick is rather inconsistent, using the directional pad instead is recommended.
• When Mars's dash is charged, Isaac will occasionally flash brightly, and visible steam will emit from his nose.
• This item can be considered a disadvantage by some people on keyboard, as precise movements made by tapping the keys can cause you to dash.

Synergies

• Camo Undies: Can be used to deal damage without breaking the confusion effect.
• Kamikaze!: Kamikaze can be used without taking damage while dashing.

Trivia

• Isaac looks like War while holding this item. In Roman mythology, Mars was the god of war.
