how to find battery bums more often?

[Bread Panda]

I STILL need the charged penny achievement and i need to find battery bums, but they don't show up, are there any areas where they may be more common? Or is it simply in the hands of randomness? also if i play as tainted Keeper, does that lessen my chances of finding arcades?

Maybe try to grab Birthright as Cain?

They're more common in the alt areas because there are dedicated basic rooms for them. A Special Secret Room variant has a battery bum in it too.

Also Arcades, and the rule is only to have 5+ coins entering the 2nd floor of a chapter/1st floor of an alt chapter.

I appreciate the help, time to go to the alt floors then. as for birthright, that may not be as helpful since that's quite a rare item

and i've had over 5+ pennies as tainted keeper and the arcades still don't spawn on their respective floors

another update, even with having as much as 25 coins while playing as regular Cain on even Hard difficulty, arcades refuse to spawn, i do not know why they don't spawn even when i have enough coins

It's weird but what can happen is Arcades have the chance to be replaced with Vault rooms. 1/10 chance normally but up to 4/10 when you have two keys upon entering the floor.

Any Vault room you've ever seen is the result of it replacing an Arcade, they don't spawn anyway else.

dang. this is like literally the last achievement i need haha, and of course it's a tedious, rng based grind

Debug console is right over there if you give up.
