Pin is a boss that can appear in The Cellar.
Behavior[edit | edit source]
Pin burrows into the ground before performing the following attacks:
- Jumps out of the ground towards Isaac and burrowing back into the ground at the end of the jump.
- Occasionally fires 4 projectiles diagonally from the last section of its body when exiting the ground and/or when burrowing back into the ground.
- Partially emerges out of the ground to fire a red
Ipecac shot at Isaac before returning underground.
- After performing this attack, Pin will always jump out of the same spot it entered.
Champion Versions[edit | edit source]
Black: Slightly larger and fires a radial burst of 6 spiraling projectiles instead of an explosive projectile and fires 6 projectiles instead of 4 when moving around.

Notes[edit | edit source]
- Each segment of Pin can be individually damaged, so a single piercing tear could hit Pin multiple times.
Piercing shots no longer damage segmented enemies multiple times per attack.
- Despite looking like it's flying above the ground, Pin is not immune to ground-based effects such as creep when doing its jumping attack. On the contrary, every segment is guaranteed to pass over the damaging area, making it more susceptible to damage.
- Due to this, Pin also cannot jump across gaps, and will bounce backwards when attempting to cross one.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Pin was added in the Wrath of the Lamb DLC for the original The Binding of Isaac.
The Frail is its posthumous version.
- It is the boss version of a
Needle.
Prior to Repentance, Pin's champion could never appear in-game despite existing in the original Binding of Isaac.
- Pin is based off the pinworm, an internal parasite.
- Pin is likely a reference to Lanmola, a boss from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past; as nearly all attacks are the same.

If you fire immediately upon entering the Boss Room, rarely, you can damage Pin before it emerges. |
