Notes[]

    • Overuse of this effect can cause unavoidable patterns, as the slowed shots will often still travel most of their original distance.
  • Character Tainted Forgotten iconTainted Forgotten's light will always face right.
  • (in Repentance) This item is not recommended against Boss The Beast ingameThe Beast, as the fires spawned by her will be slowed down significantly and pile up quickly, leading to no room to dodge.
  • (in Repentance) Doesn't remove Curse of Darkness afflicted by XIX - The Sun?XIX - The Sun?, no matter if Night Light was picked up before or after using the card. However, the visual effect is still lessened by the beam of light.
