My first run with this item i took damage immediately after getting it on my like, 3rd floor and took it all the way to beast and it fell while i was in a pesticide cloud and i instinctively dodged it using dark arts without realizing it until my friends on my stream pointed out it was no longer above my head, have yet to see this item since

Bro the damocles got so mad at you it never appeared again

at 3:06 you could tell he was walking all those 2 hours by the marks on the floor, really dedicated
TIL Isaac's feet leave footprints...so much detail in this game I've overlooked
That's an incredibly small but charming detail to the game
Wait does it really happen if you walk in the same room for 2 freaking hours?

1:09 Isaac running at Mach 2 speed in a room and immediately slashing himself with three rusty razorblades and stabbing a blood IV in his arm is the perfect analogy for this entire game

0:11 16 hours waiting to show us that damocles is not falling
Gotta make absolutely certain, the last thing you want is your 12 hour tainted lost run to be ended because you didn't test enough
What if that was impossibly lucky run and sword would fall at 17h.
@@WikiED code of the game explicitly shows that it triggers Damocles chance to fall only if you get hit.
Unless the code has been spaghettied, Damocles won't ever fall.
@@silverdededestruction2197 Are you sure? The wiki says it also has a 1/10000 chance to drop every 4th tick or something like that.
I've seen the replies, thanks for the info. I must not have read the wiki closely enough or something.
@@nelots1462 They're right, the condition for Damocles to begin checking every 4th tick is taking heart damage that isn't self inflicted (Such as in the case of Blood Donation, Demon Beggars, Curse Rooms, etc.)
Because Holy Mantle stops you from taking the damage, it won't ever fall in the case of The Lost unless you get an extra life, in which case as seen in the video, Damocles will eventually fall on the next life.
I feel a bit guilty being praised for patience :|
I did not actually wait 16 hours. Cheat Engine made it 5 times faster, so it should be around 3 hours only. And I just left it there and went to sleep lol.
I think it is safe to make a conclusion if the sword does not fall after 140 mins.
If you find something incorrect, just let me know (maybe with proof as well so that I can verify it).
As a math guy I can say that 140 minutes is more than sufficient. If the game runs at 60fps, there’s a 99.999663% chance the sword would have fallen by then. For just a 99% chance you would only have to wait about 51 minutes.
still appreciated nonetheless dude
actually according to the wiki, game logic accepts 30 fps.
but yeah still i think it is enough :D
either way, you should know that we appreciate all of your effort for these videos :]
pin your comment homie
New title: isaac awaits his inevitable death at hours at a time
Tooth and Nail saved my Damocles run with Samson to the Witness.
My first item was "Metronome" which on the second use, gave me Damocles. And yes, it didnt go away.
I took so many hits, and yet the sword didnt fall on me... for a VERY long time. Guess when it triggered?!
On Corpse II. Also, it triggered on the 1 second invincibility of the tooth and nail.
That spared me from losing the run, and i beat witness afterwards.
I will NEVER forget that run. :3
Tooth and nail is surprisingly good for that, it gives you invulnerability 1/7 of the entire run so having a 1/7 chance of avoiding Damo isn't bad at all

You monster.
@@gavros9636 i'll show you a monster
So the min score isn't 0...
Good to hear that Isaac knows that he is valuable :D
he values himself for a quarter tho
Can we all just appreciate the amount of patience that went into this video
*Every* character is the lost when you use this bad boy!
At 3:00 does Isaac really leave foot prints when he walks?
I have never noticed them
yes, i also just noticed it during the making of this video :D
I think its whenever he jumps, considering some other comments Iv seen.
It even depends on the character. Some leave blood or bones
Same, only noticed those recently. Was playing co-op with my bro and he went afk so I just walked in circles around which is when I noticed them.
It seems you kinda need to tread the same path or step on the same places to make the prints more and more defined.
Such a nice detail
The thumbnail is perfect!
i dont understand :(
When you dodge roll directly into a jammed bullet
0:25 nobody gonna talk about the super lucky curse room? 😭
Why is so lucky. I wouldn't have tale the cat and since I got goat head in the curse room will guarantee than only devil rooms will appear. :/
It is not lucky it is because of damocles swore effect
@@TheJavierMartinez88 but, u still get angel rooms with goat head if u didn't get it from devil rooms...
@@Gaban_ Then I have terrible luck then. u.u
@@TheJavierMartinez88 well yeah if you took the devil deal only devil deals will spawn
I like how you call the sword "the falling threat"
Makes it way more ominous
he calls it "the falling threat" when isaac gets hit.
like, an actual threat.
"A sword can hit a basement, in which case everyone will run out before the collision. Those who do not exit the basement will die. Entities automatically leave if a sword is falling, unless it is Isaac, in which the sword is un-dodgeable, and Isaac will _Always die."_

It hurts my soul when he took an hp upgrade in the death certificate room
At least it's not supper
@@NandolfBlockbuster BREAKFAST ENGAGED
Taking
You can also use glowing hour glass to rewind the damage in order to reset the falling threat.
that could be good strat. let me see
I had a Damocles run where I actually had red key. I took it all the way to Delirium where I found R key, so I was min maxing against my better judgement but I opened a red library and inside was a book of shadows, which I grabbed and just instinctually used. It wasn't until one of the boss rooms not giving me 2 items did I realize that the book of shadows saved me from the damocles fall.

So basically just _always_ take this item as lost/tainted lost
Knowing Edmund I bet this isn't in the tainted lost pool.

0:23 now thats a dream curse room
So this basically confirms there's like. Fake Invincibility and like LEGIT invincibility.
0:30 can we talk about this BEAUTIFULL curse room. Like fr goat head and dead cat....
2:31 The sync is so satsifying
The thumbnail looks like that meme with the guy skateboarding with a rake and then getting hit in the face with it.
good vid mate!
It'd be neat if the sword became a pick-up-abble melee weapon if you survive it.
0:23
Syncer's cursed room: Two Satan's items. One of them totally amazing.
My cursed rooms: TROLL BOMBS ARE UNSTOPPABLE!
One of them was from damocles
both are amazing
thanks for the amazing vids
Love the choice of music
poor isaac was happy jumping...then he met his end
Thank you for the research!
0:09 wow, standing 16 hours in the same room only to show how Damocles don't fall
I love the video, that poor devil beggar was left there wait tho : (
Tried to pay attention, was too distracted by how good innocence glitched is
I feel like it could be really cool if after it fell, it could turn into an item that’s just called “How..?” Idk what it would do, but I just think it’d be neat.
can we please appreciate how fricking much recording material this must have produced?
2:56 The blood splatters from dying to damocles is quite gruesome compared to the others which is just a small puddle of blood from where Isaac frickin died
Jeez O.O
With every video you release, i wish of installing Antibirth music mod even more
*Isaac spamming teleportation*
Damocles: *Yeah, n o*
0:25 Fuckin cracked basement 1 curse room tbh
Items are doubled from damacolous (idk spelling) of course, but yea still cracked
dead cat also negetes the kill effect on the sword too, because you have 9 lives
your videos are the best
Holy shit the dedication, i have to subscribe and like, you guys should too. Fair and square
Nice man
You know curious, if you can have it in the death certificate room, can you hypothetically die in there and if so what does isaac descibe the room as? Is it the same as the floor or is it a special one?
Since it looks a lot like the red key room at home, it's probably described as a "familiar place"
Cool item idea:
Guided Knife
“Airtime for days”
Idea: The knife can be thrown and can be controlled depending on the direction you are facing. (Ex: facing up, you throw the knife, it can go up and down) The knife retreats back to you when you move or when you turn directions, and can be thrown again.
As alt eden when you get hit Damocles seems to reroll it self into new Damocles, which is restarting falling fall chance, that makes eden, lost and tainted lost best characters for this item
I love the thumbnails lol
if you get damocles as a genesis item it does give you multiple items during genesis and you can pick up 3 items each wave
In total, you waited 27 hours and 30 minutes. Now that's dedication
segment 4 and 5 of the thumbnail are terrifying out of context
The preview reminded me of the meme about kick flipping on a rake
Quantum particles in a box be like 2:11
This item seems really good for the Lost/tainted lost and Lazarus.
So.. can your reaction time be fast enough to use Book of Shadows or a invincibility pill/rune at the moment the sword falls? Like seeing the sword start to fall, pressing the item button and survive with the invincibility? Or impossible with the short timeframe?
man waited for 16 hours for a dagger to fall on him. True respect.
Groovy.
man that demon beggar just wanted you to choose a skull, you didnt need to let him wait that long like that
That thumbnail is haunting
Nice vid
That cursed room though I'm jealous now
How Glowing Hour Glass works with Damocles? Can you save yourself using it while the sword falls? If this works, will the sword fall at the same time it had fallen before returning?
I presume if youre quick on the draw you could react to the falling sword with dark arts? I|m fairly certain dark arts counts as complete invincibility since wisps from the book of virtues arent destroyed while in dark arts either
the item is base on a story the sword is call damocles because the guy name was damocles there is story about it on youtube
I wish Damocles had some sort of visual indicator when it's active
That would kinda remove the whole fucking point
@@cactus_juice3217 I don't think they mean when it's about to fall, more like, when it "can" fall (After taking damage)
@@FiatNyx that would also ruin the point
The point of the item is to induce the fear of your run ending at any moment, if you don't remember you took damage that's a you problem
@@Osvaldatore Well, I get that. And I was just saying what the other person wanted to say. I personally would've liked a way to tell if self hurt did or did not trigger it. Like, an indicator for like one room only, just to confirm it did trigger
thumbnail is just: “yay!!” “euughhh…”
Hey syncer, i noticed you used Edith for your video ending thumbs-up. If you were to mod them into the game, what do you think they’d be like?
0:09 you really wait for this 16 hours? I apricciate this
0:23 godlike cursed room for the start of a run
Not just the lost but its basically free with lazarus, and whenever you have extra lives
any idea how this works?
does the hitbox just last long enough to always get a HoJ user or mercy invincibility?
Or does it ignore those states and only checks for "true" invincibility. (force field, turned into a statue, or unicorn modes)
In the curse room also you can get the Red Key to find some good items
I think that you could react to the sword in time with some form of invincibility. If you wanted to try and survive the fall you could figure out on average the amount of time it should fall, and then wait and try and react once that amount of time has passed after taking damage. No clue how fast the start up of invulnerability items like unicorn horn/stump or book of shadows is, but if it's frame one it could be doable.
ah yes. I also have the same idea.
I managed to demo it in this video (timestamp 4:47): czcams.com/video/7TCrSjAtKRY/video.html
Testing the theory in repentance is pretty time-consuming however :D
0:59 there is a typo. “Machines” is spelled incorrectly as “Machinces”
what a curse room at the beginning tho
2:20 I'd like to believe Issac teleported into the falling damocles because it's funnier that way
what if you hit ESC to escape the moment of being killed then get back to the saved game?
Imagine having tooth and nail and it activates just in time to save you from Damocles.
Hello i have a question about Eve's razor blade
Im on xbox (afterbirth) and i unlocked eve's razor blade but i can't find it on my, character
would tooth and nail's invincibility work? if you're going to test it I suggest trying to make it always on if you can somehow
I love how the thumbnail says AckAckAckAck
I had a T-Eden run where I took democles thinking it would re-roll after I took damage so it would just be extra items for free. That shit didn't even let me realise I was wrong, it fell on me frame 1 the first time I got hit.
Question? Does it trigger if damage is negated through stuff like infamy and cone head
no :D
@@Syncer pog
@@Syncer hey any tips for the lost, just got him mantle and won a chest run with 8/9 lives used up and a broken combo (eye of ocult,tech, lokis horns, and high luck or perfection trinket in this case) but that was lucky so i wanna know some tips

Man I love Rocky Horror Picture Show please watch it
That curse room, holy hell, please tell me it wasn't spawned in.
i thought the thumbnail was isaac jumping then landing his butt on the damocules handle lmao
One that I wondered, is if you use suicide king (with one up) right as the sword drops, would you get all the rewards and no more risk?
Sorry for stupid question : Holy card now can't be dropped again with 25% chance as it was in AF+?
It's not just because of Damocles, but I am really glad that the game now differentiates between intentional and unintentional damage, because I don't think that used to be a thing - definitely not for Angel/Devil deal chance as far as Curse and Sacrificial rooms are concerned, and I am pretty sure even Blood Bank and Devil Beggar used to ruin chances back in WotL.
Was the thumbnail the picture of the man jumping on a rake in Isaac form?
