fetus in a jar
This item is embarassingly bad. Please make it count as a bomb and not a tear effect. Maybe it was made that way to make the challenge an actual challenge, but it's unjustified.

some guy beat moms heart in eight minutes with that item. Maybe you're just using it wrong?

It's amazingly good... especially if you combine it with Pyromaniac and/or Ipecac. It actually scales to your tear stats, which is perfect.

Are you kidding? Pair it with ipecac, and Bob's curse, and you'll one shot EVERYTHING. The ipecac grants immunity from the explosion, and Bob's curse boost damage through the roof. I stumbled on this combo during the Demo Man challenge.

Ipecac grants immunity from the explosion? How does that work?

Eight minutes for the whole run up to that point, not for just the fight.

I was just frustrated because I was doing the challenge and had several damage ups but was barely hurtting mom.

plus I was guppy and of course bombs don't spawn flies

So, you need to get some specific and rare items to make it work... Otherwise it's just trash.

I was pretty disappointed to see it was nerfed from the original, too...

But it is still a decent item- Just not right at the very start. What makes it nice is the fact that it synergizes with tear modifiers as well as bomb modifiers, so things like Parasite and Cricket's Body make for quite the explosion-fest.

Ipecac doesn't make you immune to explosions unless it has some sort of special interaction with the dr fetus item or something else.
