Can you guys tell me what you think is better
First let me just say, I like both active items, but am leaning towards one, because I think it has a little more value so Id like your opinions. On a run im on rn, the treadnaught gave me elder blank, short cd, extra blanks when its up, but I already HAVE dbl vision. So. Help me out here. Im torn. I also...the extra curse will be annoying, as I already have SOME. If you wanna know my weapons I have hexagun, stinger, demon head, sawed off, ice breaker, staff of firepower?, and magic lamp.

Elder Blank is hard to use, IMO. Pressing space instead of Q is a lot tougher (and can't be done mid dodgeroll).

Double Vision is Double DPS, can NEVER go wrongwith it.

How is pressing space harder than Q? I actually rebound my blank key to space and item for Q instead. Your thumb is always on space.

I rebound mine to an extra button at the side of my mouse which is pretty nifty.

If you have good DPS you can pop Elder Blank quite frequently, not to mention it syncs with other blank-related items, and can open secret rooms, or at leasti think it can.

It comes down to what you're lacking, surviveability/dodging or dps.

I typically prefer Double Vision.

Elder Blank is good, but it's a defensive active. In most cases, it's not going to help you kill enemies/bosses faster. Double Vision, on the other hand, is one of the strongest offensive actives in the game.

You'll be killing everything quicker, especially bosses, so the actual need to dodge and blank will effectively be reduced anyway.

Double Vision > Elder Blank. Then again, I don't value Elder Blank that much anyway. I'll take an invincibility item over Elder Blank any day.

Although the Double vision is pretty good, i once got the Ice Cube + a lot of coolness and the Elder blank was basically `Done. you win`
It was before the patches made so that coolness didnt remove that much from the cooldown...

Elder Blank has a huge flaw in that you can't use it in the middle of a dodge roll. Personally, I would only use a blank when I know I'd ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up a dodge and about to ram in a bullet. I'd go with double vision.
