(except in Rebirth)

Milk! is a passive item added in The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth.

Effects

  • Spawns a glass familiar that follows Isaac.
    • (except in Repentance+) The milk spills on the floor upon taking damage. After which, Isaac gains -2 tear delay ((in Repentance and Repentance+) +1.0 fire rate) until leaving the room. The familiar will reappear in the next room.
    • (in Repentance+) The milk will block projectiles, and upon blocking 10, the milk spills on the floor. After which, Isaac gains +1.0 fire rate for the rest of the floor. The familiar will reappear upon entering a new floor.
    • Direct tear delay reduction can break the normal soft fire rate cap.

Notes

  • The milk puddle is purely visual, and will stay on the ground for a few seconds before disappearing.
  • (in Repentance) Familiars that follow behind Isaac have a certain priority in how close their position is to him over other familiars, with Milk! having the lowest priority at 6th and thus being farther from Isaac than familiars of different priorities.
    • (in Repentance+) Milk! has the second-highest priority; just behind Collectible King Baby icon.pngKing Baby.

Synergies

  • (except in Repentance and Repentance+) Collectible Box of Friends icon.pngBox of Friends: The milk familiar is not duplicated; instead, tear delay decreases by 2 upon use even if the player has not taken damage in the current room.
    • (in Repentance and Repentance+) No extra tear delay is granted, neither before nor after breaking.
  • (in Repentance and Repentance+)Collectible Rock Bottom icon.pngRock Bottom: If activated at least once, the increased rate of fire will always be active.

Interactions

  • Collectible BFFS! icon.pngBFFS!: Familiar is bigger but no effect on tear delay.
