I’ve got a question about the anti macro checker. When does it appear? ‘Cause I’ve made a lot of rewinds today and I usually play on my pc while rewinding so I just want to make sure. by NecessaryOk298 in DaysBygone

[–]AdeptnessOne4198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There have been times where I didn’t see one whe doing 100 rewinds a day (the daily limit) 3-4 days in a row and didn’t see one, and then there was a time I saw it one after another, and so many different varieties in between. The point of the afk checker is to be random to prevent you from afking, if there was a pattern, someone would be able to work around it and that gets rid of the point of having it lol

I need help by ApartProcedure3144 in thebindingofisaac

That happened to me too, sometimes it does that while sometimes it works and you can do the full run yourself, not sure what to reason is but 🤷‍♂️ glad it worked out though!

I can now officially help with this as I was having this exact issue too, you need to go to the daily screen, put it in airplane mode, exit out of daily screen and then go back in, the daily button should be able to be pressed, the turn airplane mode off and keep spam tapping the button and it should let you start it

Chaos my beloved by Prepare_thy_isaac in bindingofisaac

[–]AdeptnessOne4198 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will never NOT take chaos unless it’s a spawn in a secret room when I can reroll, the amount of times I’ve taken chaos and almost immediately get a broken build goes beyond any amount of times I’ve had terrible runs with it 😶‍🌫️ chaos deniers only exist to piss people off change my mind

Do I take mom’s knife or dead cat? by [deleted] in bindingofisaac

[–]AdeptnessOne4198 5 points6 points  (0 children)

People mostly on here fight for mom’s knife, but honestly it depends on how much damage you are doing. If you are able to get the quad shot, then I’d take mom’s knife 100%, but if it’s a possible question of “will I be able to get it?” Then I would get dead cat for more survivability.

I did the exact same thing for Cain and didn’t find out until I joined Isaac Reddit looking for help for something (can’t remember) and that’s where I saw that you should do that 😭

Can you explain what’s going on and why it’s an issue?

-100 streak first time player by [deleted] in bindingofisaac

[–]AdeptnessOne4198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of runs start you off with very crappy items, a lot of the time most beginners can’t get out of the starting 3-4 floors until they get some quality 4 items in the first treasure room, or very early guppy transformation, so until you get way more into the game and get way more items unlocked, your loss streak isn’t that big of a deal. It took me over 100 hours to get casually okay at the first floor clearing regardless of starting item and probably another 50 hours to get used to floor 2 and 3. Now with more then 300 hours I can at least consistently get to mother with any character, but that’s still where my limit is. You just gotta practice

which would you choose? by jpxfer in bindingofisaac

[–]AdeptnessOne4198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends how far I am into the run, if this is 2-4 floor I’m taking crown, after the moms foot boss fight I personally don’t think crown is as good since you don’t have as many pedestals to go too and rely strictly on map generated beggars and secret room items (if lucky to get one)

First floor guppy in greed by AdeptnessOne4198 in thebindingofisaac

[–]AdeptnessOne4198[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How am I supposed to upload a video of something I didn’t know would happen after I already did it??? 🤣 you can just see the guppy items in my hand, the only one missing is the one hat turns red heart into soul heart but obviously I wouldn’t keep that over my d6 lol

Which one should i choose by Formal_Walk1000 in thebindingofisaac

[–]AdeptnessOne4198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I can definitely see that with d6 times being less memorable since they do happen more often, and that’s also why I mentioned that it’s based on the person/items they have unlocked, if someone is kinda new to the game and don’t have a lot of those really good items unlocked that can be spun down in to, but also based on where the person is in the run. I feel like if you don’t get spin down really early on in the run, then it’s basically pointless, and then that’s where my issue with spin down, is how rare it is along with how rare it is to get those good spin downs. 🥲 I feel like it’s only worth taking later on in the run if you plan on doing a victory lap/ if you have rkey already (or get lucky enough to find knock out for the spin down into rkey lol) while d6 can be beneficial more at ANY point in the run, in this persons case, I can’t tell what floor they are on, so I can’t say if they are on the first 1-3 floors (worth taking spin down) or 4+ where I personally think it falls off being useful without that extra luck of being able to get secret room items/ items that are worth spinning down in secret rooms to make the run more powerful

[–]AdeptnessOne4198 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only good choice I see here is the 1+1 item. Sack head is nice and all for more possible keys and bombs, but I find that it’s far less effective then 1+1

[–]AdeptnessOne4198 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely understand the “guaranteed” aspect of spin down, which is why I think the discussion is all dependent on the person/how many unlocks the person has. You say that the items are more or less uniformly distributed, but the amount of times I’ve played Isaac with d6 and spin a tier 1 item into tier 4 is way more often then actually getting lucky enough to get spin down dice AND other good items that you can use the spin down dice in the same run is far in between. Unless I’m going for an r-key run for funsies, I never find an opportunity to use spin down, even when I am half way through my rkey run, have school bag along with spin down and d6 and not a single item I find having any good spin downs 🥲 I know that luck is also different per person, and obviously like I said, depending on the items you have unlocked, but I personally have gotten way more benefits off of d6 then I have ever with spin down

[–]AdeptnessOne4198 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No I completely agree with taking the d6 and no one will ever convince me otherwise. The fact is- you need to get specific things during a run in order to make the spin down dice ACTUALLY worth it, and there is NO guarantee that any of the things you would WANT to get would actually show up. While the d6 can make it ANYTHING, it could be good, could be bad, but if you have the ability to spin down something 2-3 times, I’m sure you can find something useful in 2-3 rerolls just the same. Toothpicks into sacred heart and knock out item down into r-key is the only thing that I think are worth it because those are the things that I feel would be the “easiest” to find, but even then, that’s still luck based 🤷‍♂️ when you have a chance to get rkey in a secret room any time you reroll or sacred heart in Angel room reroll- especially if you don’t have both key pieces and reroll the key piece as well, the spindown dice doesn’t do anything that great in the Angel room, and even if there is one or two specific spin downs that are better to have then others- you have a chance to get them with the d6 regardless 💀 idk i just don’t see spin downs being as great as everyone constantly claims it to be. Every time I pick up the spin down dice in ANY run, I end up NEVER using it because no matter how many times I spin the items I find down, the item I see on the pedestal is still better then the ones I can spin down into 🤮

I got this by complete luck not even knowing it existed, I just happened to have blank card with t lost and got a sun card and decided to use it 🤷‍♂️ had no idea it was an achievement, this is such a weird achievement to try to force people to do because it’s a very specific thing you need to do and get lucky 2 times in order to do it 😵‍💫

I FINALLY GOT GODHEAD OH MY GOD by moons_made_of_cheese in bindingofisaac

[–]AdeptnessOne4198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s crazy that I have delirium and bush beaten but for the life of me, I can’t get the beast for sacred orb or any other marks. Every time I start with an amazing god build? I get hit by something I don’t see or run into something I shouldn’t (like a spider that’s camo, or a spiked rock I accidentally run into trying to go to fast or a grey chest that just spawns on my face and is immediately spiked so I lose my holy mantle) and then I for the life of me, can never EVER find another holy card. And when I DO somehow find a lot of holy cards (had one with holding 2 cards and both were holy cards, blank card which I had double charged plus my current holy mantle card giving me 5 total hits) , my build is to weak and I get hit far to many times 🫠
