Tech.5 is an unlockable passive item.

Effects

• Grants an unlimited range piercing laser with random rate of fire that does not replace tears.
• The laser has a 1/6 chance to fire every ~0.07 seconds (4 frames), firing at an average rate of 2.5 times per second.
• The laser occasionally fires with the effect of a random item or trinket, including:
  • Hook Worm
  • Spoon Bender
  • Tiny Planet
  • Mysterious Liquid
  • Rubber Cement
  • Brain Worm

Notes

• The damage of the laser scales directly with Isaac's damage.
• Unlike Technology or Technology 2, Isaac can still fire tears from both eyes in addition to firing the laser.
• The laser can be fired independently from tears by slightly tilting the right analog stick, just like shooting familiars.
• Unlike Technology, Tech.5 Lasers do not have momentum, and fire exclusively in the cardinal directions unless Isaac has an item like Analog Stick, Eye of the Occult or Marked.

Interactions

• Anti-Gravity: Creates floating laser balls that will all fire simultaneously when the fire button is released.
• Brimstone: Tech.5 does not fire. However, it will still fire when playing as Azazel with his short-ranged Brimstone. Since the laser scales with player damage, this can be a devastating combination.
  • Tech.5 fires normally while Brimstone laser is charging.
• Cricket's Body: Tear delay down as expected, but no benefit from the splash effect.
  • Releases a 4-way spread of tears whenever the laser hits a wall or an enemy.
• Eye of the Occult: Only affects the laser's color.
  • Eye of the Occult + Brimstone/Technology: The Tech.5 laser also automatically fires at the crosshair.
• Gello: Laser only fires from Isaac.
• Lilith: No effect, as Lilith is inherently Blindfolded.
  • Lilith fires the Tech.5 laser from her forehead as expected, though the costume doesn't appear.
• The Ludovico Technique: Laser is fired in the same direction that the controlled tear is moving and the laser becomes spectral.
• Ipecac: Laser explodes and poisons enemies on contact.
• Rubber Cement: Laser will bounce in angle depending on the obstacle hit.
• Sprinkler: No effect.
• Urn of Souls: Isaac can still fire the laser as normal while using the urn.
