Flat Stone achievement

What is the easiest way to find Rubber Cement 5 times? I already found 10 beds and 10 Blood Clots by reseting Greed Mode but no single Rubber Cement though it is in Greed Treasure Room item pool.

you can technically start as cain in greed mode and go to the treasure room and reset for rubber cement

I was doing it for 30 minutes and nothing. It is probably missing from item pool.

I got it in greed mode.

Start as isaac with the d6. Go into item room, go into shop. Bomb reroll machine if there, finally D6 the shop.

If anything comes up that might let you break the game consider taking it and doing a run where you can buy up every item till rubber cement happens,

If not R

But normal Greed Mode or Greedier Mode? Or it doesn't matter?

Greedier mode is less money, thus harder to break and easier to lose if rubber cement did show up.

In greedier you could have rubber show up and easily lose to the waves.

I was trying 30 minute Greed Mode and 30 minutes rolling items with Lost and not even single Rubber Cement appeared.

I'm not sure what to tell you. It's very time-consuming and irritating but after 2 hours of constant resetting, I got it to show up twice in Greed Mode, which was all I needed. Just start with Cain, head right, reset if it's not there.

It might also be worth keeping up to date with the Daily Runs, as a run a few days ago was very easy to beat quickly, and had Rubber Cement in Boss Rush.

Daily runs won't count toward your rubber cement encounter count.

That's exactly what I was doing for about 1 hour and still nothing :/ I saw some posts on reddit that item pools for either Flast Stone or Rubber Cement are bugged but I'm not sure how.

[topolskiego]

Yeah, I finally found first Rubber Cement as Cain in Greedier Mode in upper Treasure Room. I don't know if it changes much if I play Greed/Greedier, but I had no luck for 1hour in Greed one. So now 4 more...

The pool for flat stone was bugged, but it should be fixed now. There was an update.

Btw why Cain and not Isaac with D6 ?

Cain starts with a key. Free access to Treasure Room.
And while I think Rubber Cement can technically show up in the shop, it's even rarer than showing up in the Treasure Room. Outside of breaking the game with Chaos, I've never seen Rubber Cement show up in the Greed Mode shop, ever.

Both the Wiki and my WAY too many hours of playing agree. Rubber Cement only shows up in the Gold Treasure Room in Greed (unless Chaos). Not the free Silver one, not the Shop, only the locked Gold Room.

I found 2 so far in Golden Treasure Room in Greed Mode so I cna confirm.
