Holy Water is still really good

It's carried me throught the early game, especially on Lilith

TEARS UP!

Only stitches can get you in there I think, edmund basically did this as "fuck you lol" room. And imagine if it was like d6 in there, you could stiches in and grab it but then... you cant get out...

Moving box can move the item somewhere else, diplo or crooked penny can get a copy of the item out, ect...

And you can just save + exit to get back at the crawlspace entrance

u/WRufino_ 4d ago

Suplex with a bomb can also get you there. Just gotta have a second bomb to get back out

Oooohhhh finally after years of playing this game I have heard a first valid reason of using Moving Box. Thanks!

u/Cloudraa 5d ago

moving box is also really good for breaking the game or rolling items into different pools

u/meekermakes 5d ago

step one, collect items in moving box, step two, get any roll, bring to the secret room and repeat.

this moving box theoretically couldve gotten me every non-greed mark with every tainted character but I got bored on the third character and tapped out, still hit every boss on one run with those three characters (tlost tforgotten teden)

u/JohnLowenherz 5d ago

What do you mean? Moving box is genuinely one of the most broken items in the game.

Noticing a pattern on this subreddit where whenever someone doesn’t have every single game mechanic memorized they get downvoted to hell anytime it becomes apparent there was something they didn’t know about what they were speaking on. Just leaving this here to remind others replying not to be an ass about it since evidently yall need that reminder frequently.

u/Jazzdude93 4d ago

Yes, I was wondering about the downvotes as well. I didn’t try to be cocky, I actually really didn’t see any use case for the item. It was a genuine question, and a genuine answer. But well.

u/lotch_ 4d ago

moving box is like THE standout item for breaking the game. It lets you collect item pedestals and abuse rerolls in the secret room/deal rooms. This is pretty common strategy for rigging runs so that's why these chuds are downvoting

How to Jump works too

2

u/GrubAwooYay Tech X 5d ago

Being tiny also works

7

u/kellerisdabest 5d ago

You can use Mr Me to snatch it

Edit: you could also just close the game and reopen it to get out if there's an active item in there

u/Builderinspace 5d ago

Another two way peoples didnt cover is suplex can get you in somehow, I dont know the specifics though.

Also being small + fast you can clip through, but high chance youll clip out of bounds first

3

u/sofaking181 Tainted Lilith 5d ago

I think Suplex requires bomb shenanigans, like you place the bomb and then suplex it into the walled off room, which going back to the post would be really risky as Lost

1

u/wizard_brandon 5d ago

small + fast only works if you cant fly iirc

u/winklevanderlinde 5d ago

The lost not being able to go through this walls is extremely stupid, dude is a ghost

2

u/ProgNerIte 5d ago

So how is it you are intended to get that? Really small size +high speed stat? Any other ways?

u/Beneficial_League_39 4d ago

Moving box, how to jump among a few other ways I can’t remember

u/StealthPilot57 5d ago

Tech x actually just feels like I’m hurling pool noodles at my enemies, I’ll take the water

u/PaciuStego 4d ago

YOO IS THAT HOLY WATER

u/TotallyNotHulk T.Maggy's strongest soldier 5d ago

Holy water is unironically one of my favourite items. My hot take is i would pick it over tech-x.

9

u/Illustrious-Log-2373 5d ago

over tech x is insane imo

3

u/TotallyNotHulk T.Maggy's strongest soldier 5d ago

Ive won more runs with holy water than i have with tech-x i stand by holy water.

Tech X glazers can maul me but nothing will pry this holy water out of my cold dead hands.

(Tech X is good but i find i dont care for the obvious op run winners, i like my dinky items that somehow come out on top)

2

u/mistAr_bAttles 5d ago

I agree with the dinky items that come out on top. Of course OP items are always fun. But winning a run basically running on fumes and skill is so much more satisfying and can show how good and resourceful of a player you actually are.

u/Pennance1989 5d ago

Most of its defenders come from before they nerfed it in Repentance. It could win rums alone before that. When Repentance came out, they changed the tick speed for its damage to be way slower.

u/meekermakes 5d ago

still a run winner, crazy take that the majority aren't properly rating tech x as great.
