Imp Soda is a passive item added in The Reheated Update.

Effects

• Isaac has a luck-affected chance to fire a purple glowing critical tear that deals 5× Isaac's damage.

Notes

• The chance of firing a critical tear is equal to 1 ÷ ((30 − Luck × 2) − Extra Odds)%, with Luck rounded down, and the chance capped at a maximum of 33%. The Extra Odds is based on the amount of other effects that grant the chance to shoot critical tears.
  • Extra Odds is equal to 5 multiplied by the number of copies of Imp Soda Isaac has.
  • In effect, with no other modifiers to Extra Odds, the chance to fire a critical tear at 4% at 0 luck, and reaches 33% at 11 luck.

Interactions

• Sodalite Geode: Increases the Extra Odds of firing a critical tear by 5, multiplied by the Trinket Multiplier of Sodalite Geode. The total odds are multiplied by an additional 1.5× if the Geode Bonus is active.
• Sculpted Pepper: Standing in the aura of a purple statue will increase the total Extra Odds to fire a critical tear by +10, then multiplying it by 1.5×.
• Brimstone: Brimstone beams will turn pink, and each tick of damage has a chance of dealing a critical hit.

Trivia

• Critical tears' appearance and effects upon hitting an enemy are references to Team Fortress 2's critical hits.
  • Additionally, Imp Soda might have been inspired by Crit-a-Cola, an item in Team Fortress 2 that can grant temporary mini-crits.
• Imp Soda was unused in the initial The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ release of the Fiend Folio MOD.
