[QUOTE=Loofiloo;46645068]Book of revelations guarantees horsemen, but it doesn't guarantee that you'll get ONLY meat cubes or ONLY bandage balls. In the first Isaac, getting book of revelations on the first or second floor meant you were guaranteed to make a super meat boy if you lived through the womb. But now it's a lot harder for several reasons. -Larger item pool means book of revelations is less likely to spawn -50% chance of getting meat cube or bandage ball on each horseman, so you have to gamble each time. -Headless Horseman and Conquest may spawn instead. I don't remember if the book of revelations spawned those two bosses in the first game, but there was sure as hell less RNG involved.[/QUOTE] In vanilla, BoR could still spawn a Headless Horseman or Conquest. Libraries were more common in vanilla once you had picked up any book, Rebirth doesn't seem to have any chance modifiers. Also with more books you'll have a longer time exhausting the Library pool; good luck with doing that before the end of Basement 2. In Rebirth, double-trouble bosses can override any horsemen spawns and there's jack shit you can do if you see the map and the boss room is 2-tiles wide. Vanilla had a glitch in curse of the labyrinth where you could get an extra cube by rerolling the other boss's item. Vanilla had the Dead Cat exploit where you could reset any room by dying in it. This allowed players to get up to 3 max-level Meat Boys if they were playing well. Even more if they used the Ankh and 1-up. The most you could get legit was 4 max level and 1 level-3 if you were in the Meat4Ever challenge. Also Horsemen spawned at a ridiculous rate regardless if you had used the Book of Revelations or not. In Rebirth it feels like you [i]need[/i] to force them to spawn.

for some reason, every horseman drops the thing I need, if I'm making the girl, they all drop balls however still doesn't guarantee conquest cockblocking me and dropping his stupid pony But I finished a Bandage Girl and beaten Mega Satan with Azazel Ludovico Piss Wiggle Worm.

apparently the D20 can't reroll troll bombs. Cool, there goes another absolutely winning lost run thanks to my plan of using the tower card followed by the d20 to get other items instead resulting in one troll bomb propelling the other straight at me while i sat there holding up the D20 in vain. I am just on a roll with these fucking troll bombs ruining everything. God that run was going so perfectly, I was on caves 2 and i was already near immune to any damage thanks to an infamy mask and three pretty flies, then my bright idea to abuse the d20 blew up in my face literally aaaaaaaaaaaaa fuck these stupid troll bombbbbbssss

[QUOTE=postal;46645624]apparently the D20 can't reroll troll bombs.[/QUOTE] didn't d20 used to do that though? I remember it being an effective strategy in the original.

Its alright, you can restart and not lose anything

So did you die? MAN I CANT WAIT TO UNLOCK THE LOST

[QUOTE=For No Reason;46645942]So did you die?[/QUOTE] no i conquered the room somehow after a few minutes of going between barrels and taking quick shots at the spiders once paths were clear, then once the spiders were cleared I dealt with the kamikaze from a safe distance. but that stalemate while I came up with a plan was agony.

Speaking of D20.. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHcUoMzvejA[/media]

I was having a pretty bad run getting boring and not very helpful items. Then I found a dice room 6 and turned inot one of the best abominations with a lot of flying buddies. Run saved and ??? unlocked.

oh wow dark boy and mothers boy on 1 run great got to fight satan he died holy The Mantle rocks and The Ludovico Technique work good I was azazel by the way

Northernlion's newest video [url]http://i.imgur.com/QtQAz93.png[/url] Rock, get out of there, that's not for you

ahahaha, fuckin hell I love when I get OP runs. Azazel Quad shot with tiny planet and tech 2. Also had over 7+ damage including cricket's head and head of krampus. Nearly invincible with wafer and holy mantle.

Oh my god, that was by far my most intense run! [IMG_THUMB]http://puu.sh/dilPT/e279afb176.jpg[/IMG_THUMB] [IMG_THUMB]http://puu.sh/diodV/8ca8f81526.jpg[/IMG_THUMB] [IMG_THUMB]http://puu.sh/diogr/d8c1b7b993.jpg[/IMG_THUMB] (Finally unlocked dead boy as well) Couldn't have done it without holy mantle though. (Which I got on the first floor...) The seed is [B]H4P0 434F[/B], holy mantle is on the first room to the left, if anyone wants to play around with it.

I can see a secret room on the minimap but I can't bomb through the wall wtf

I wish there was a lower limit for how many coins you can put in the donation machine before it jams. I feel like the majority of the time it jams after 3 or 4 coins.

Oh my god, I found a goat head in basement 1 as Lost, and guess what? Devil rooms had either all chests or useless spacebar/black heart items. The only one useful item was the Mark. Then I died in the womb because of my shit damage. [editline]5th December 2014[/editline] started another run, yep more useless books and now missing page 2. sure thanks!

game stopped giving me libraries, famines and books of revelations but at least I unlocked the stopwatch, woo

[img]http://i.cubeupload.com/r8U0hi.png[/img] triple shot, shielded tears, awesome firerate i want to die

wtf dark room you're too kind [img]http://i.imgur.com/Cy8Dul5.png[/img] [editline]5th December 2014[/editline] the pills were pretty fly btw

from now on I am waging jihad on blood donation machines as lost. not a single one will remain as long as I (and he) am alive

Am I the only one who goes back to vanila time to time? both are great btw

[QUOTE=TheLastNipple;46646901]Am I the only one who goes back to vanila time to time? both are great btw[/QUOTE] I don't see a reason to. Rebirth is basically straight up better.

I can't play the original because it's so goddamn jerky now, compared to Rebirth

[QUOTE=Fourm Shark;46646950]Cant handle the framerate[/QUOTE] yeah I noticed that the fps are shit in vanila after playing rebirth

[QUOTE=Onule;46645982]Speaking of D20.. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHcUoMzvejA[/media][/QUOTE] [img]http://i.imgur.com/qdjU2w5.gif[/img] [editline]5th December 2014[/editline] So I'm trying to get the lost, and I picked up the ankh as Azazel without thinking. Am I screwed, or will the death count normally? [editline]5th December 2014[/editline] lol nevermind i died anyway. Now I guess this is a ??? run.

whoever you finish as is who the run counts as, so if you are resurrected as ??? it becomes a ??? run

where are all the fucking mullibooms jeez

[QUOTE=Mellowbloom;46647094]where are all the fucking mullibooms jeez[/QUOTE] Just use a seeded run. You can use seeds for the first three deaths, you just can't for azazel. use [url=http://bindingofisaac.wikia.com/wiki/The_Lost]this link[/url] to get the seeds. They're all in normal btw. Hard gives you a different level layout.

Very interesting that the two Angel bosses are actually given distinct names from each other in the games entity list. The one clad in white is called Uriel, while the one in red is called Gabriel. Both most likely named after two of the archangels of god.
