Shoop da Whoop! is an activated item.
Effects[ | ]
- When used, the next shot will fire a large, Brimstone-like laser in the direction Isaac shoots that deals double Isaac's tear damage. If Isaac is already shooting, the item immediately activates in that direction.
- The laser hits up to 13 times.
- The laser hits up to 12 times.
- Status effects can be applied by the laser.
Notes[ | ]
- Despite the laser looking very similar to Brimstone, it doesn't share most of the Brimstone-specific interactions.
- This item can drop from Envy.
- Can still be used while blindfolded.
- This item synergizes extremely well with items that significantly increase damage, such as Polyphemus and Ipecac.
Synergies[ | ]
- 4.5 Volt: Allows the item to be charged and used multiple times in a room, which can help with dealing extra damage in enduring fights like most endgame bosses.
- 9 Volt: Can be used once every room, and more frequently in Challenge Rooms.
- Book of Virtues: Spawns white wisps in the outer ring that resemble Shoop da Whoop!. The wisps will not fire tears, but will each fire a thin Shoop da Whoop! laser whenever Isaac uses it (including the wisp that was just summoned). The lasers deal 7 damage per tick (BUG: 3.5 if Isaac has BFFS!), and can hit up to 10 times for a total of 70 damage.
- Broken Remote: Since item charges aren't expended until Isaac chooses a direction to shoot, the player can teleport across the floor indefinitely.
- Hemoptysis: Enemies hit by the sneeze will gain a curse that increases the power of the laser by 2× and +3 flat damage, on top of the 2× base damage already applied by Shoop da Whoop. Enemies who die to the laser under the curse will damage and spread the curse to nearby enemies.
Interactions[ | ]
- Car Battery: No effect.

Trivia[ | ]
- Shoop da Whoop! is a reference to an internet meme depicting an edited face of Cell from the anime Dragon Ball Z firing a laser from its mouth. This meme is usually accompanied by the quote "I'm-a firin' mah lazar!", followed by "BLLLARRRRGGG!", which is where the item's tooltip comes from.

Bugs[ | ]
Bug! | Using the item at the same time that you touch a large Golden Chest (dropped by final bosses such as The Lamb and ???) will freeze Isaac, and the ending won't appear. Leaving and re-entering the run will fix the bug. |
