Any tips for the ZIP! achievement?
Use Azazel on normal?

Sacrifice rooms are nice shortcuts.

With victory lap you will get it couple of times

how does that work because aren't achievements disabled during victory laps? Does that trick still work where you can exit and resume a victory lap and the achievements will start counting? I figured this would have been fixed in the recent patch.

There are tricks to reading the map that will help you clear levels faster. The Shop is usually on the way to the Boss Room and the Item Room usually isn't far off. Find any of those three and you can usually guess where the other ones are. Also, look for secret-room shortcuts. On some maps you can get to the boss in three rooms with a secret passage.

Also, a lot of the achievemets will sort of happen on their own if you let them. The reason I got Rerun is I happend to have an OP run with Holy Mantle, so I gave it a shot. I was actually trying to get to Delirium, but if the game gives me an opportunity, I'll take it.

Same goes for this one. Just play the game normally. If you happen to have an OP run and you're just flying through the game by the time you get to Mom, take the Negative and give 'er.

Trick? I got it 2 days ago while trying to get the RERUN, just playing normally. And I don't think all achievements are blocked in victory laps....More than anything because 2 of them have to do yes or yes with victory laps. And surely ZIP is one of them too.

I've done it while doing It's the Key. By just checking treasure rooms and going to boss you should get it if your build is violent enough

MY GOSH. I finally got this pain in the butt zip achivement. And I did it as Judas of all people.

My seed was MD1M WZFW

Curse of the xtra large first floor. The item room is Dr fetus, one of my favorite items. The other item room is sworn protector. Blowing up everything drops the quarter, swallowed penny, and a lame chest only crawl space.

The floor has a Sacrifice room The shop has a refresh machine.A card in there was Diamonds, I buy and got shop refresh and humble bundle. Each pay out on the sacrifice is 2 cents via swallowed. The devil deal was sac dagger I think and dark prince's crown which is dark trash and left behind.

One card is emperor. I leave the shop at soul hearts and with all the money left over buy full soul hearts. Then finish paying the sacrifice room. On the dark room I warp to the lamb and beat em at 12 minutes.

The range/shot speed up from the first floor bosses did make the lamb fight much harder.

If you have an ambundance of Eden tokens then hes a good way to go. I got a crystal ball and epics ffetus start. While its highly unlikely to get something THAT ideal its still a good way to go if you just wanna farm for a quick carry item.

Did it via sacrifice room, just got lucky with health. The only pain, what's left is "It's the key".

If you didn't this one, try to knock out this too. But this will WAY too hard.

My method used Samson and aimed for a Sacrifice Room on Caves II or Depths I. I picked Samson because Bloody Lust + Child Heart can help burn through the first few floors quickly and can build your damage vs. the Lamb if your build isn't quite there when you get to him. Child Heart also helps get the health to use the Sacrifice Room. Took me maybe 10 or so attempts before I got it.
