Fire Mind is a passive item.
Effect
- Tears inflict burn to enemies.
- Tears have a chance to explode on impact with an enemy, leaving behind a fire.
- Explosions do Isaac's current tear damage, in addition to the tear's hit.
The fires deal 22 damage per tick.
Each fire deals up to 4 ticks of damage: 1st tick deals 23 damage, 2nd tick 17.3 damage, and 3rd and 4th tick 11.5 damage.
Fires can block projectiles, up to 4 times, each time getting smaller.
- Isaac cannot take damage from the flame, but can still take damage from the explosion.
Isaac gives a wide glow lighting up dark areas, such as those under the effects of the
Curse of Darkness or the
Dark One's attacks.
Notes
- The explosion effect chance depends on the luck stat, and the formula used to determine the chance is:
- At base Luck (0), the chance is 10%, maxing out at 100% at 12.86 Luck.
An exploding tear does not set either the hit enemy or anything in the blast range on fire.
All enemies hit by the explosion will be set on fire.
- Explosive and burning damage is equal to Isaac's current damage stat.
- The flame will transform certain enemies into their fire-related versions (e. g.
Hoppers into
Flaming Hoppers).
- Tears can explode upon hitting
Bombs of any kind.
