Description

Betrayer's Shield is a gun . Upon reloading, it leaves a protective shield on the ground, which blocks enemy bullets (but not the player's). Only one such shield can exist at any time. The shield is destroyed after taking too much damage or upon leaving the room.

Synergies

Betrayer's Lies:

If the player has LiesLies , Betrayer's Shield gains infinite ammo, a much larger magazine size, increased accuracy, and extremely high fire rate. Like other guns with infinite ammo, it cannot reveal secret rooms. Betrayer's LiesLies can be combined with other guns using Duct TapeDuct Tape by dropping LiesLies, using Duct TapeDuct Tape, and picking up LiesLies again. However, using Duct TapeDuct Tape with a beam weapon such as DisintegratorDisintegrator will cause it to eventually run out of ammo. It can be refilled by simply dropping it and picking it up again.

Notes

  • The Betrayer's Shield is peculiarly a member of the PISTOL gun class despite almost certainly being more at home among the members of the FULLAUTO class.
  • There are a few bullet patterns in certain boss fights that the shield will not block, such as the large bullets that the Cannonbalrog shoots when he disappears and the line of bullets that spins around the Resourceful Rat in his first phase.
