Seems that the drop rate of head is not depend on it, either in actual gameplay or on gamepedia. I found it in 3 consecutive runs by blowing up shopkeepers (both hanging and 'normal' and not even always the ones with money in their eyes). Especially when you are playing as Lilith or Isaac. Not very useful and is overriden by many tear-modifiers like Tech or Brimstone, but it is good to find it in early game or when you are playing as the Keeper.Īlso, Head of the Keeper + Sack Head = Game breaking. The actual effect of it is, every time your penny tear hits a non-invulnerable enemy, there is a chance of dropping a penny (seems that only regular penny can be dropped, not nickels or dimes) on the floor. If you manage to find a key beggar or key bum, or encounter challenge rooms with 4 golden chests inside it for a few times, you are likely to have a good chance to find Head of the Keeper.

It has a chance to be found inside a golden chest and a small chance to be found from bombing a corpse of shopkeeper. Originally posted by The Protestor:Head of the Keeper doesn`t need to be unlocked to find.Īnd technically it is not a super rare item.
