Decap Attack is an unlockable activated item added in The Binding of Isaac: Repentance.
Effects
- Throws Isaac's head while allowing to shoot from the spot it lands, blocking enemy shots as well as dealing contact damage to nearby enemies. Meanwhile, Isaac's body can no longer shoot tears.
- The head does 24 damage on impact and 4 damage per tick (12 damage per second) on contact when it's on the ground.
- The head can return by picking it up with the body, or by using the item again without requiring charges. Both the throwing and retaking of the head can deal damage to enemies passing through.
Notes
- This item acts similarly to
Tainted Forgotten's birthright.
Synergies
The Book of Belial + 
Birthright as 
Judas / 
Dark Judas: Grants Judas +2 damage and ×3 tears fired per second while his head is detached from his body.
Book of Virtues: A stationary wisp spawns where Isaac was when he threw his head that fires tears in the same direction Isaac does. The wisps do not persist between rooms.
Interactions
Car Battery: No effect.-
The Forgotten: The head changes in sync when switching between The Forgotten and 
The Soul. The Forgotten's bone attack still belongs to the body, while The Soul's tear attack belongs to the head as expected. - Tainted Forgotten: Throws the head of Tainted Forgotten, but the bone attack still remains on his body. The head can only be recalled by reactivating the item or having the body touch the head.
Transcendence/
The Pinking Shears: Isaac is invisible apart from his shadow while both items are active.
Mom's Knife: The knife still follows and shoots from the body, the head doesn't shoot tears.
Trivia
- The name, description and effect of this item is a reference to the Sega Genesis game of the same name from 1991.
