Revelation

Effects

• Gives Isaac flight and two soul hearts.
• Continuously firing for 2.35 seconds allows Isaac to fire a powerful holy laser when the fire buttons are released, similar to the attacks used by the Angel bosses.
  • The laser deals Isaac's damage per tick (up to a maximum of 15 times) and can be aimed diagonally. It lasts for ~1.28 seconds (77 frames).
    • With the EnableMouseControl enabled or an analog controller, the laser can be aimed in any direction, similar to Analog Stick.
  • Tear delay has no effect on the charge time of the laser — it is fixed at 2.35 seconds.
• This item belongs to the Seraphim set. Collecting three items from this set will transform Isaac into an angel.

Notes

• This item's effects will still work while Blindfolded, which makes it extremely valuable for (Lilith) Lilith and in challenges such as BRAINS!.
• Having any charged tear effects like Monstro's Lung or Brimstone will lower their DPS if their charge time is under 2.35 seconds, in order to use Revelation's laser.

Synergies

• Angelic Prism: When the laser hits the prism, it will split in four.
• Anti-Gravity: The laser fires in place, not following Isaac.
• (Brain Worm) Brain Worm: The laser will bend completely to hit an enemy, effectively acting as a better form of homing on single enemies and bosses.
• Continuum The laser loops around, potentially hitting enemies twice.
• Eve's Mascara/ Polyphemus: As the laser deals Isaac’s damage, but is not affected by tear delay, the DPS of the laser is greatly increased.
• Lachryphagy: The laser will have reduced range, but will spawn a stream of red Lachryphagy tears.
• Multidimensional Baby: If a Revelation laser is shot through the baby, it will double the laser.
• The Parasite: The laser will split both ways at 90 degree angles on contact with an enemy.
• Pop!: The laser will have reduced range, but will shoot out eyeballs rapidly at its end.
  • Pop! + Multidimensional Baby: Lasers modified by Multidimensional Baby are no longer affected by Pop!, being normal length and not firing additional eyes out the end.
• Rubber Cement: The laser will bounce off the walls for a short distance.
• Spoon Bender: The laser will home in on enemies in a very effective way.

Interactions

• Almond Milk/ Soy Milk: As the laser deals Isaac’s damage, but is not affected by tear delay, the DPS of the laser is greatly decreased.

• Diplopia: Multiple copies of Revelation have no extra effect.

• Ipecac: The laser will poison enemies and repeatedly explode on contact with an enemy or obstacle. Despite its high damage increase, Ipecac only adds +2 damage to the beam, similarly to Brimstone.

• Jacob's Ladder: At any point the laser makes contact with an enemy or obstacle, lightning will jump from it.

• My Reflection: The laser makes a thin loop in front of Isaac, and fires the normal laser backwards.

• Mysterious Liquid: The laser creates a pool of creep on contact with an enemy or obstacle.

• Playdough Cookie: The laser rapidly flashes between different colors while firing, with a chance to inflict status effects.

• Sulfuric Acid/ Terra: The laser will occasionally break obstacles.

• Tech X: If the Revelation beam and the Tech X are both charged, it will sometimes fire the Revelation beam first and the Tech X ring at the end of it.

Bugs

| (Bug) Bug! | When combined with Chocolate Milk, Cursed Eye, Monstro's Lung or Tech X, releasing a Revelation attack may prevent a charged shot from firing at the same time as expected. The charged shot is delayed by about ~0.5 seconds. Holding a full charge for a longer time makes the delay more likely to happen. |
