Yeah, you can edit the items_metadata.xml file and change around which items shows up for T Lost. Any item that has the "offensive" tag will show up when playing as T Lost. Item spawns are still bound to their respective pools, which you can change in the itempools.xml file.

If you're asking if it's possible to edit which items show up through the in game menu or mod, then I don't know. There may be one on the workshop.

Is it possible to customize what items you want in the T. Lost item pool?

Yes. Although the item pools themselves are unchanged.

Does this work in GreedMode?

@shut up meg yeah kinda

holy shit this already got updated nice work dude

If Steam doesn't seem to be updating to the new version, you can unsubscribe, launch the game, exit the game, then resubscribe. That will force Steam to download and update to the current version.

@DividedByZero you mean gulped wooden cross?

idea for a mod that someone should make: tainted lost gets a holycard shield at the start of each floor but only if he has no holycard shield or holycard in his pocket (he doesnt get a holy card that you can drop, he gets a holycard SHIELD if he has no shield at where his ''health'' is and also, if he has a holycard in his pocket he doesnt get the shield at where his ''health'' is.

A Pound of Flesh is added to the items T. Lost can find. If you're asking about how it works, you get one free item from shops but can now buy multiple devil deals.

pound of flesh?

Well, looks like I already changed it but I just forgot to remove it from the description lol.

Likely an oversight when I changed initially. I get it fixed soon. Good catch though.

why did you make it so that belly jelly can now be found as the tainted lost but then you removed it from the item pool for regular lost with birthright?

can you add support for mod config menu to remove every single item from tlost's pool?

No. This only changes items_metadata.xml. If you're using my other my, Standardized Item Weights, then that mod will affect bag of crafting. This mod just changes the tags for T Lost in the xml file, which shouldn't affect item quality (as far as I know). The actual item quality values are left at their default values in this mod.

Does this change itempools.xml? Because I'm pretty sure that also affects bag of crafting, not just item quality.

Hallowed Ground: Am I a joke to you?

finally T.Lost's upside is not gonna be a frickin' lie

Cool Mod!

Okay, thanks for explanation!

You can also easily edit this file to add or remove any item you want. Just look up the internal id on the wiki and add the tag "offensive" for Tainted Lost, or "nolostbr" to remove the item from regular lost's item pool while also holding birthright. Just copy your changes to a new folder and you should have two active copies of the mods in your mod menu. Deactivate this one, and you're good to go.

Most orbitals were removed because they're way less useful in Repentance, and especially so for a character that takes only one hit. The idea was to try and free up as much space as I could so that you have that much higher chance of seeing better items. Sac Dagger was added because it does ridiculous damage compared to every other orbital in the game, and also so there would be a very small chance that players could eventually get that plus gnawed leaf to cheese if they wanted. But removing most of the other orbitals makes it harder to get that setup to cheese the game with. I wanted it to be there, but really wanted it to be very uncommon.

How to Jump is for Bookworm and for Panic Button synergy.

I'll look at Suplex and Belly Jelly, but Bloody Puppy I don't like and I won't add it back in.

This mod is pretty great, but I actually have a few questions and suggestions about its rebalance:
- Why is Bloodshot Eye removed from the Tainted Lost's pool? It is a great orbital that blocks shots AND shoots at enemies.
- Why is How to jump added to Tainted Lost's pool? It is an entirely useless item for him, because he already has flight.
- Why didn't you add Suplex! to the Tainted Lost's pool? Its a cool and useful active item.
- And lastly, why didn't you add Halo of Flies, Guardian Angel, Big Fan, Sworn Protector (those are orbitals, its weird that you added Sacrificial Dagger to the pool, but didn't add them), Belly Jelly (which is basically a better version of Infamy) and Blood Puppy (pretty good item) to both Tainted Lost and regular Lost holding Birthright? Those are really good and useful items for both Lost and Tainted Lost, why are they removed?
Besides all that, great mod! Hope you add those changes to the mod to make it even better.

Both of those items are already added in this mod for the Lost while holding Birthright. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

You should probably also add holy water alongside aries to the list of items that the lost can pick up while holding birthright. It's been strangely removed despite being a really good item now and not requiring to take damage to activate anymore

@Zontrax It works correctly for both the Lost and Tainted Lost. Make sure you have the mod activated in the main menu. You can also unsubscribe from this mod, launch the game, quit the game, and the re-subscribe to this mod. This will erase the temporary version that the game copies over.

Thanks for the update, I'll look into it.

Just got a pound of flesh in a run but it doesn't seem to work. Shops still cost money and devil deals still ask for health

@KyotoKyoshi No, sorry. But this is very easy to do yourself. You can open this mod up (it's in the mods folder in the BOI directory) and re-add the "offensive" tag to any item that you want the Tainted Lost to find. It's in plain text and sorted by item ids, which is why I listed them in the description. Then you could just copy the file and folders to a new mod in the mods folder so it wouldn't be overwrited if I update in the future.

just wondering could you possibly just do the added items to the pool section? like im okay with sometimes getting rocket in a jar or obsessed fan but i would prefer all the items you added to be in the pool

if yall dont like the mod then dont get it??? there are literally mods that let you edit the game to your whim and this is the one that yall bean on? let ppl play how they wanna play
this is a great mod, author.

Not sure why people are complaining about this mod? If you prefer normal tainted lost then just don't get the mod.

@brickerdog75 Well this mod just reads a bunch of stuff to t losts pool, making him seem more rng, like re-adding holy mantle to the pool. Seems to make him worse, for example removing magic 8 ball and bbf.

Nice mod :). Ignore all the people in the comments bitching about the changes you made with this. They're just a bunch of difficulty elitists and tryhards.

so you're just making TLost into "hold R until you get Dead Cat" again?

bit of a lame way of doing it but you do you

this completally ruins the char

Just tried this and found Bird's Eye and Holy Water. Not bad at all. Yes it can muddy the item pool a little but that's fair in exchange for Dead Cat and the like being available again. If you dont want those items in your pool, just go into the metadata.xml and erase the word "offensive" from those items.

can u make a version that doesnt add defensive items but removes all the shitty items that offer no offensive abilities ? :)

TBH this is less re balancing and re-adding everything the character wasn't supposed to get - like holy mantle. Now its just a straight up worse lost, bu t to each their own I guess.

So basically this mod changes the character that is SUPPOSED to find only offensive items, while always being in danger of being killed to a better version of regular The Lost before Holy Mantle is unlocked for him

You got it.

can you add this in main text to help others?

thx, found it

@Chad delox Yes, you can also find it in:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\250900\2480745008

can't find thid mod in tboi+mods
can it be in any other folder?

Good to know. Thanks!

how to jump is busted with panic button

Good point. Thanks for the feedback.

Why is cursed eye removed? it basically doubles your dps and you don't get teleported eitherway. Similar gripe with items like tiny planet imo.
