Battery buddy issac7/29/2023 ![]() ![]() Generally though, survivability isnt a concern when most enemies are dead. Its just that MOST of them should be used for crafting. Plus, it doesn't hurt to take a soul heart once in a while. Though, later into a run, it can absolutely be worthwhile to craft a few cheaper recipes just for the sake of it. Usually I just have 2 heart containers and nothing more. "Wait, so if youre not crafting low quality items, and youre not taking soul hearts, how do you handle your HP?" Hell, you might wanna do this without mega satan for that sweet sweet soul heart payout on the 10th hit. You get a bunch of red hp from salvages and all that, and if youre doing well on the item front, you should be strong enough to not be worried about taking too many hits, so you can just spend most of your red HP you find on self damage stuff. Just play out a sac room for the key pieces. "If I'm not protecting my red HP, how do I get angel deals for Mega Satan?" Not taking pills is the path of cowardice.Īnd just to pre-emptively answer a few questions you might have: Hell, go to Downpour just for the extra pickups inside the mirror. Check shops for resources, play out blood donors/devil beggars/sac rooms with all those red hearts you have lying around from salvages and room drops. Check every penny before you take it for a green sheen incase its Lucky (lucky pennies are one of the highest quality pickups!!!). You'll eventually just get to a point where you can find Womb ones without focusing on looking (source: i have). Obviously, if you scrounge the floor for everything you can find, you'll get more good shit. Most of my Tainted Cain runs don't even get 1 item per floor, but it doesnt matter, because every item I make is incredibly powerful. But regardless, my point is that you should keep tweaking your recipe until you're 100% satisfied with the result. Now of course, if your bag is entirely quality 4+, its probably fine to replace one of the qual4 things with something a little lower tier too. If your bag is full of top tier shit and the game gave you Theres Options, Trinity Shield, or something else that you just dont want despite having a quality rating of 3 and therefore being accurate to the bag, you can just replace the lowest tier pickup in yout bag with something of equal or greater value. You dont have to craft an item just because you have 8 pickups. Nickels, Dimes, and Black/Eternal/Bone Hearts are also great bag contents. I dont even bother protecting my deal odds with TCain. Medium sized batteries are worth just as much too, so throw them in as well. They're decently common, and have a very solid quality of 4. But as a rule of thumb, your best filler is soul hearts. Just use the abundance of red hp and coins to buy shit or play out self-damage stuff. They are very low quality and if you need filler, bombs and keys are worth twice as much and are still quite common. As a rule of thumb, never use red hearts or regular pennies as filler. The wiki page for the Bag will tell you everything you need to know. Learn what combined qualities result in what item qualities. (Yes Mama Mega has a consistent recipe, but good luck getting 2 gold bombs.) ![]() Kinda like the old tractor beam spam strats before random recipes.Ģ- Quality over Quantity- This is how I do it, and it works for everything except timed marks, since you're prob being minmaxy with this. But from my understanding, you fish through cheap recipes until you find one thats easily repeatable, and just make a bunch of that item. Well, theres two major playstyles people have adopted for TCain.ġ- Quantity over Quality- I've never actually played like this so you'd have to ask someone else whos well versed in TCain for details. Oh, perfect timing, I just finished searching for my tcain guide for somebody else. Health ups are very easy to craft, use that to your advantage, especially late game. When replacing your active item, this can be a great way to farm bone hearts. For instance, secret room items are guaranteed to net you a bone heart (quality 5). Know where some pickups are more likely to drop. That stuff will kickstart your run immediately. You're swimming in pickups, so don't be afraid to bag golden stuff. ![]() You're looking for dimes, nickles, batteries, and especially golden versions of bombs and keys. They all have quality of up to two, so they won't net you great items. Pennies, red hearts and most of the bombs, pills, cards and keys should not go into the Bag, at least not at the beginning. Those pickups are will get you higher quality items. T.Cain should be played once you have all or most of the special pickups (charged key, golden bomb, mega battery and so on) unlocked. I've won T.Cain with no gamebreaks or any kind of cheesing, so it's absolutely doable, and I'd call him a fun character overall. ![]()
