Chaos is a passive item added in The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth.
Effects
- Drops 1-6 random pickups around Isaac.
- Causes items to be chosen from random item pools.
- Fixed item drops that ignore the current room's item pool will not be replaced. Examples include Cube of Meat after defeating one of The Harbingers as a floor boss, or The Small Rock after breaking a Tinted Rock.
Notes
- When playing Greed mode, items that are available only in the normal game will still not appear despite Chaos; the modes' different item pools stay separate.
- As the item does not mix or combine item pools, it is possible to deplete smaller item pools and end up with Breakfast before all items in the game have been taken.
- Thus, if Chaos tries to pull from an item pool that is already depleted, it will not pull from a different pool and instead give Isaac Breakfast.
- As many Greed Mode item pools are small, Chaos tends to result in Breakfast more often during Greed mode.
- Thus, if Chaos tries to pull from an item pool that is already depleted, it will not pull from a different pool and instead give Isaac Breakfast.
- Chaos will draw items even from item pools that are not used in the game, but defined in the game's files. The unused pools are
bossrush
containing nearly all bomb related items,challenge
with a smaller selection of bomb items anddungeon
containing several Mom related items and food items. - Since all item pools have the same probability of being selected, bomb-related items are much more common due to the Bomb Bum,
bossrush
andchallenge
item pools. - Each pool has a weight based on the number of items in the pool. Items from large pools such as Treasure Room, Shop, and Boss are very likely, while items from small pools like Bomb Bum and Planetarium are more rare.
- If an item outside of the Devil Room pool appears as a Devil Deal, it will always cost 1 Red Heart Container (or 3 Soul Hearts should Isaac have no Red Hearts).
- If an item from the Angel Room pool appears as a Devil Deal, it will cost 2 Red Hearts if it would cost 30 cents in the Angel Shop generated by The Stairway, and 1 Red Heart if it would cost 15 cents in the Angel Shop.
- Similarly, if an item from the Devil Room pool appears in an Angel Shop generated by The Stairway, it will cost 30 cents if it would cost 2 Red Hearts as a Devil Deal, and 15 cents if it would cost 1 Red Heart as a Devil Deal.
- If an item from the Angel Room pool appears as a Devil Deal, it will cost 2 Red Hearts if it would cost 30 cents in the Angel Shop generated by The Stairway, and 1 Red Heart if it would cost 15 cents in the Angel Shop.
- If an item that grants an Eternal Heart is taken in a devil deal, the eternal heart will not keep Isaac alive if he has no other hearts.
- Bosses defeated in The Void drop items as if Chaos was active. Re-rolling the items uses the Boss Room pool as normal.
