Mom's Contacts is an unlockable passive item.
Effects[]
- Adds a chance to shoot petrifying tears, which stop enemies in place and prevent them from moving or attacking.
- +0.25 range. ( not applied until the next time Isaac's range stat is updated).
- +1.5 range.
- +0.5 tear falling speed. ( not applied until the next time Isaac's tear falling speed is updated).
- This item belongs to the Yes Mother? set. Collecting three items from this set will transform Isaac into his mother.
Notes[]
- Despite granting the Yes Mother? transformation, duplicated items will not contribute to unlocking Mom's Contacts. Three different items are required to unlock it.
- The chance to fire a petrifying tear depends on the luck stat, and the formula used to determine the chance is:
- At base Luck (0), the chance is 20%, maxing out at 50% at 20 Luck.
- Petrifying the Heart of a Mask + Heart also freezes the Mask bound to it.
- Petrifying an enemy with a weak zone ( Scolex or Carrion Queen) will make the enemy take damage anywhere while it is petrified, making combat significantly easier.
Synergies[]
- Compound Fracture/Cricket's Body/Haemolacria/The Parasite: If the main tear causes petrification, split tears will too.
- Finger!: Finger can also apply the petrification effect.
- Lachryphagy: If freezing tears are fed first when they burst, the split tears can also freeze enemies.
- The Ludovico Technique: The tear flickers red, capable of petrifying enemies when it does.
Interactions[]
- Brimstone: The beam can occasionally freeze enemies with no visual difference.
- Epic Fetus: Occasionally fires missiles that can freeze enemies. No visual difference.
- Technology: Lasers can occasionally freeze enemies with no visual difference.
- Technology Zero: The electricity that is connecting tears has a chance to freeze enemies.
In-game Footage[]
Trivia[]
- Mom's Contacts' appearance was changed in Booster Pack#5.
Bugs[]
Bug! | Enemies with multiple segments (Chub, Pin, etc.) can be petrified and have their segments destroyed individually, but continue to live with any remaining health. This can be problematic at times especially with Carrion Queen, as you could destroy the "tail" or center body segment when Carrion Queen is petrified, thus making you have to petrify her again, or use bombs to do damage. |
