[Answered] Challenge 15 + Death's touch damages

[Harest]

I just saw the combo on a stream and it seemed like the damages was a lot less important as soon as he picked up Death's Touch. Sure he took a tears down pill on the road but it only affects the speed rate if i read correctly.
So what's the problem here ? Did i miss something or is there a bug with this combo of items ?

Reminder : You start with: Polyphemus, My Reflection, Cupid's Arrow.
A boss killed without Death's Touch[www.twitch.tv] (Pin was obviously instakilled). And the boss rush with Death's Touch[www.twitch.tv].

Update : Finally, it was just an impression with the so different hp from a boss to another + different floor and such.

does it really matter? That challenge is one of the 2 easiest challenges. The highest damage you will probably every have and you only need to beat mom. What a joke.
Also, that would mean that Death's Touch interacts with one of Slow Roll's item's, not the challenge itself, because that's not how items work, unless the chalenge introduces somethign unique.

deaths touch has a percing effect to it
it olny hits once and keeps going
it doent have meny ticks like blue candel or moms knife
tho the upside is that its Huge and good for crowd contral

slow roll already pierces...

[Momizi]

its also a tears down too i think?
i dont rilly understand the questen

[Harest]

The fact the challenge is easy or not is not the point. I just want to know why such a loss of damages. I've read the description of each item and i still don't understand what i missed here.

Maybe it's just an impression, i guess so. The bosses hp are so different it's hard to compare. In any case, a boss killed without Death's Touch[www.twitch.tv] (Pin was obviously instakilled). And the boss rush with Death's Touch[www.twitch.tv].

He loss damage? odd
It's a 1.5 damage multiplier as a recall

I don't know what you're seeing but there's no loss of damage. In fact, it's quite obvious he gained damage. Famine, a cellar level boss, the easiest tier of bosses, had to be three shotted with polyphemus. During the boss rush, the last level of bosses you'll face (at least in the challenge) took similar amounts of hits; gurdy jr was killed in 3 shots and the blighted ovum only took 2. If that's still too disappointing for you, consider that his only damage upgrade besides polyphemus and death's touch is the halo, which isn't very much at all. Also consider the fact that bosses scale as the game progresses, raising their hp. Sorry you wanted to see the French dude one shot the boss rush but he's going to need at least max's head to come anywhere close.

Yep, that's what i supposed at the end. That is was just an impression consindering how hp of the bosses are always different. Thanks for taking the time to clarify the stuff up btw.

And i didn't want to see "the French dude one shot the boss rush". He was just doing a funny challenge again after his 10 win streaks w/ Isaac in hard, and before to stop the stream.
I guess i shouldn't bother myself with questions at 6am.
