Synergies

  • Character Azazel icon.pngAzazel / BrimstoneBrimstone: Isaac will fire Brimstone lasers in all directions. (except in Repentance and Repentance+) Each laser is given bonus damage.
    • This will deal a substantial amount of damage near the center of the effect due to how lasers overlap the closer you get to Isaac.
  • (in Repentance and Repentance+) Book of VirtuesBook of Virtues: Spawns pale wisps in the outer ring. The wisps' tears deal 1.5 damage, but fire twice as fast as standard wisps. Tears are inaccurate and fire in a spread.
  • (except in Rebirth) Car BatteryCar Battery: Shoots 20 tears in a circle around Isaac.
  • (except in Repentance and Repentance+) Chocolate MilkChocolate Milk: The size and damage of tears shot depends on how far Chocolate Milk is charged.
  • (in Repentance and Repentance+) Character Tainted Azazel icon.pngTainted Azazel: Although Tainted Azazel's Brimstone beams do not have a damage bonus, they also do not have the normal damage penalty and still deal double damage to enemies that have been sneezed on.

Interactions

  • (in Repentance and Repentance+) Eye of the OccultEye of the Occult: The tears quickly lose their outward momentum and can now be controlled all at once, making it easy to make the tears hit enemies.

Trivia

  • Tammy's Head is named after one of Edmund McMillen's cats.
  • When Repentance released, this item was removed from Golden Chests, but it wasn't added into any other item pool besides the (in Repentance and Repentance+) Crane Game.pngCrane Game, effectively making it impossible to find normally. This was later rectified.

Bugs

Bug Bug! (except in Repentance and Repentance+) With the Mom's KnifeMom's Knife synergy, the Blindfolded condition prevents Tammy's Head from shooting knives and makes the item useless.
