Paschal Candle is a passive item added in The Binding of Isaac: Repentance.
Effects[]
- Gives Isaac a candle familiar that grants a Fire Rate bonus of +0.4 for each room cleared in a row without taking damage, which stacks up to 5 times (Max. +2 Fire Rate), represented by how brightly the flame burns. Starts at 1 stack, and resets to zero if damage is taken.
Notes[]
- The Fire Rate bonus can exceed the normal Fire Rate cap.
- Any self-damage, such as from
Curse Rooms, Sacrifice Rooms, the Bad Trip pill, and self-damaging items such as IV Bag, won't reset the bonus. - Clearing waves in Greed Mode will give the candle charges as if you cleared rooms.
Synergies[]
- Holy Mantle / any similar item: The flame is not snuffed out when damage is negated by the shield.
Interactions[]
- BFFS!: The candle appears larger, but otherwise does not change.
- Paschal Candle: No extra familiars or stat boosts are granted from copies.
Trivia[]
- A Paschal candle is a large, white candle used in liturgies in Western Christianity.
