AMAZING SYNERGY DISCOVERED! Tractor Beam + Sprinkler
During a run I was kicking serious ass with the Tractor Beam and I found the Sprinkler. I figured that it would just fire tears around itself like normal when I used it. But nope! All the tears that the Sprinkler fires ends up in Isaac's Tractor Beam and fire in the direction you are facing non stop! And alongside this, you can still fire your tears like normal essentially making an alternative 20/20 as you are firing both your tears and the tears provided by the Sprinkler. Even if you need to use the debug menu to try it, you must! It was so much fun!

Also I would genuinly like to know if there are any other unexpected synergies that anyone else came across. If you got any, let me know! :D

Those are some nice synergies

Okay, here's a good one: Incubus + Cursed Eye
Whyever, Incubus doesn't have to charge the 'Cursed Eye' shot and shoots constantly 3-4 tears.

That would be so cool if I was playing as the Lost!

The item that makes you shoot a very big tear over a short range that quickly decays in size/damage. (mega tears i think?) + coal. Does about the same damage at all ranges.

Tiny Planet + Homing + Coal + Magnetic Tears + Splash (on hit or end of range) + High dmg and/or fire rate. One of the most fun combos, but obviously a very rare one without cheating.

I believe that is proptosis.

I remember on Rebirth before Afterbirth was even released I got proptosis with polyphemus as just slid effortlessly to the end... Good times.

I remember getting that combo. The game was just too easy with it.

OP doesn't under the difference between synergy and interaction.
John Orbit Jun 16, 2017 @ 9:25pm 
As for synergies (or interactions? whatever), Technology Zero + So. Many. Things!
Take your pick. Tech 0+...
High Tear-Rate (Soy Milk, Number One, etc.), Multi-Shots (Bookworm, Conjoined, 20/20, Inner Eye, Mutant Spider, Incubus), Split-Shots (Parasite, Cricket's Body, Compound Fracture), Sticky Shots (Sinus Infection, Nose Goblin, Explosivo), Spectral and/or Piercing shots...
Also, add Jacob's Ladder for ALL of the lightning!

My favourite synergy tho... Toxic Shock + Ipecac. Deal 40 damage, TWICE, when you walk into a room? Okay! You can also add Pyromaniac, so your Ipecac heals you.

Or just make it silly by throwing in Cricket's Head and Eve's Mascara and deal over 100 damage to everything, TWICE!

Another nice Ipecac synergy: Ipecac + Mysterious Liquid (+ Splash damage)
Every shot creates a giant green pool that damages enemies a lot.
The trinket 'Lost Cork' makes the pool larger, so that nothing can escape!

Gnawed leaf and Placenta means you can't die.

Guys-guys-guys-guys... you are forgetting the BEST synergy of them all...
Brimstone + Soy milk!


I learned that the hard way
