DON'T SAY IT DON'T SAY IT DON'T SAY IT
These randomized recipes are really just... yknow?
Softlocked in ultra sectret after using the moon? in new patch. At least the game was kind enough to give me some kind of way out...
Carried me through a tainted lost run with brimstone
my take on the lore
Which is the best choice How to Jump, Monster Manual, Monster Manual or Monster Manual?
Beating mausoleum mom hitless using only dark esau. (requested by u/luckydrzew)
Something about the new Ultra Secret Room item pool
Tainted Jacob be like:
You are not the same
Pog
I've noticed that in the levels where we can see isaac's reflection, with tainted laz we can see the reflection of inactive side of the tainted laz!
The Difference
This flip will be juicy
Which one would y'all take? I'm not very good at picking items tbh
Just discovered that Dark Esau can't kill you on Lost form if you have an eternal heart

Welcome to Repentance Daily Discussions! Feel free to leave your opinion on today's boss of discussion down below!

Boss Discussion

Hey, wait a second...what's going on here? A Boss Discussion? And, hell, never mind that, a Boss Discussion about a non-Repentance boss right after a patch, posted at noon? Cats and dogs, living together—mass hysteria, I tell you. Yes, I may have had a rather late night and forgotten to post. No, Big Horn is not the shiniest new boss on the block. But dang it, just because they've seen a few runs, does that make them unworthy of Discussion? Did it take until finishing the intro writeup to realize that Big Horn hasn't really changed all that much besides a new coat of paint post-Repentance? Perhaps. All that's just semantics, though: Big Horn deserves your love. It's Boss Discussion #18, bright and early, and we're talking Big Horn!

[Big Horn]

HP: 480

• Big Horn alternates between attacking with his arms and his head

• Big Horn can spawn 2 or 3 small holes, each of which has a chance of having one of Big Horn's arms come up through it. Each arm can perform the following attacks, either solo or together

• Arms can throw a Troll Bomb towards Isaac, or 3 Troll Bombs in a spread towards Isaac (each Troll Bomb has a chance of being a Hot Bomb or Mega Troll Bomb)

• If the arena is Flooded, Big Horn will throw out Sad Bombs instead

• If Big Horn tosses a bomb into one of the empty holes, Big Horn's hand appears out of that hole and tosses out the same type of bomb

• Big Horn can quickly slap the ground 3 times with an empty hand while traveling towards Isaac.

• Big Horn can hold up a Little Horn in his palm, which spits out 3 small homing Dark Balls in quick succession; if Big Horn dies while performing this attack, Little Horn hops off the hand and continues the fight, but with low health.

• After traveling towards Isaac, Big Horn's head can perform the following attacks after appearing from a large hole

• Big Horn can spit out a large homing Dark Ball

• Big Horn can spit out two large (non-homing) Dark Balls diagonally beneath him, that bounce when colliding with walls or Isaac's tears. These do not home

• Occasionally, Big Horn can spit 3 Dark Balls (2 homing, 1 non-homing)

• After spawning a Dark Ball, there is a very small window where Bombs can be kicked into his mouth, dealing considerable damage. If fed a Bomb, Big Horn is temporarily stunned, and plays a unique animation, during which he takes 20% more damage

• At the start of the fight, Big Horn immediately drops into a hole without attacking—periodically during the fight, Big Horn can choose to do this as well
