Trivia

  • Unused: Recessive Hero - If the player has Ancient Hero's BandanaAncient Hero's Bandana , it causes an unknown effect. Removed because it contains a starting item.
  • The icon for this item seems to refer to the Anime "Afro Samurai" in which the titular hero wears a similar bandana (standing for "Number 2" as in the second highest ranked warrior) while in pursuit to reclaim his father's bandana which is that of the "Number 1".
  • The damage increase when a co-op partner is dead is 1% higher than the health scaling attributed to co-op mode, thus cancelling out its effects.
  • Ignoring temporary/conditional damage buffs such as those provided by MetronomeMetronome , Cog Of BattleCog Of Battle or The Robot with JunkJunk , this item boasts the highest damage buff in the game, surpassing EyepatchEyepatch by 6%.
