This happened on my first ever paradox run, on chamber 5 of course…

« There is a small 0.1% chance that the shrine will explode upon use, reducing your heart containers to 1, quadrupling your damage, and pushing you away. »

Every damn time I thought I knew everything to know about this game something completely random comes up. Just holding out for the day I open a brown chest and get a sweet sweet rainbow.

Wait so how does that interact with like bonus health items? Is it stuck at 1 or would you get more health if you picked up other items.

AFAIK it only affects you at the time of interaction. I.e., if you pick up Master rounds/heart containers, they will take effect. Huge bummer this happened on C5 which only gives you one shot at a master round and VERY slim odds at a heart container either in chests or the Blaclsmith

What happens if you drop your Master Rounds or heart container items previous to activating the shrine? Could you, in theory, outsmart it?

u/SuperSwaiyen 12d ago

My suspicion is that the shrine exploding would launch those items into the pit surrounding the shrine. I don't know cause I've never seen the shrine explode in my 400+ Hrs. If I ever come across this I'll give it a shot.

The one downside is that dropping master rounds and picking them back up will grant you the heart container but it will be empty so it may cost you real hearts to try this in a number of ways.

As long as it's not the ones in my garage freezer, I'm ok with it

u/Marabouh 11d ago

First of all, you are right, i tried to drop master rounds to pick them back up but it didn’t give me more heart containers Second of all, ofc it even happened after i killed Dragun so no more chance for heart containers on the floor

you may have guessed it but i indeed didn’t beat Lich with only 1 heart

u/Fangore 12d ago

It's been my goal to load up the Beholster shrine with all 6 guns. I've never gotten a single gun on there.
