Incubus

Effects

• Spawns a demonic familiar that copies Isaac's tears.
  • (Removed in Repentance) Incubus' tears ignores Isaac's range and shot speed.
  • (Added in Repentance) Incubus' damage is reduced by 25% when playing as characters other than (Lilith) Lilith.

Notes

• Lilith's starting Incubus is technically not a collected item but an intrinsic part of the character, and is removed if an item such as Ankh or (Added in Afterbirth †) Clicker are used to become a different character. As such, playing as Lilith will not add Incubus to the collection page.
• Incubus is one of the familiars that can be spawned by Cambion Conception.
• (Added in Repentance) Incubus has the second highest priority of following familiars, below King Baby.
• (Added in Repentance) This item belongs to the Conjoined set. Collecting three items from this set will transform Isaac into a three-faced version of himself. Lilith's Incubus, however, does not count towards the transformation.

Synergies

• (Removed in Repentance) (Azazel) Azazel / Brimstone: Fires a full length Brimstone laser that can be charged while still firing the previous laser, allowing it to fire more rapidly than normal.
  • The laser fired by Incubus has the same width as Lil Brimstone's.
  • (Added in Repentance) When playing as (Azazel) Azazel, Incubus' Brimstone laser has the same range as him.
• (Added in Repentance) Berserk! / (The Forgotten) The Forgotten / Spirit Sword: Incubus will carry the respective melee weapon, using it exactly like Isaac.
• (Added in Repentance)(Forgotten Lullaby) Forgotten Lullaby: Doubles fire rate of Incubus. This notably makes it fire and charge attack faster than Isaac does.

Interactions

• (Added in Afterbirth † / Removed in Repentance) Analog Stick: No effect. Stat changes still apply.
• (Removed in Afterbirth †) Cursed Eye: No effect.
  • (Added in Afterbirth † / Removed in Repentance) A burst of 3 tears is fired at the regular tear delay without needing to charge.

• (Added in Afterbirth † / Removed in Repentance) Eye of Greed: No effect.

• (Added in Repentance)(Found Soul) Found Soul: While the soul is alive, decreases Incubus' damage by 20%.
• (Added in Afterbirth † / Removed in Repentance) Flat Stone: The effective range of Incubus' tears is roughly doubled, with a single bounce in the middle of the flight.
• Guillotine: Incubus will fire tears in relative position to its body depending on where Isaac's head is currently.

• (Added in Repentance) Immaculate Heart: Incubus can create its own orbiting tears, which will orbit the Incubus that created it, and not Isaac.
• Isaac's Tears: The item is recharged by Isaac's tears, not Incubus'. This item works with (Lilith) Lilith.
