Euthanasia

{{:{{{1}}} | {{{1}}} | {{{2}}} }}

**Euthanasia** is a passive item added in Afterbirth †.

## Effects

* Adds a chance to fire needles which deal triple Isaac's tear damage.
	+ Needles will instantly kill regular enemies and cause them to burst into 10 more tears in all directions.
	+ The chance to fire a needle depends on luck and goes up to 100% at 15 luck.
* This item belongs to the Spun set. Collecting three items from this set will transform Isaac into a buff berserker.

## Notes

* The needle tears appear to have the ability to kill enemies that are normally invincible, such as Peep's eyes and Death's Heads.
* Possible needle tears in a burst from killing an enemy do not retain the instant kill and burst-causing capabilities, but still deal triple damage. This prevents chain reactions of bursts.
* Although the needle tears can kill Grimaces, they will respawn when Isaac leaves the room.
* In Greedier Mode, the needle tears can be used to kill the second phase of Ultra Greed in a single hit if one of them hits the golden statue during his transition from the first phase to the second.

## Interactions

* Little Horn: Some needle tears gain the piercing, instant kill effect and orange glow. When these tears pass through and kill an enemy, they do not burst into more tears.
* Epic Fetus: Overrides the tear burst, retains the chance for triple damage but does not change the appearance of the missiles. Does not retain ability to kill normally unkillable enemies.
* Dr. Fetus: Overrides the tear burst, retains the chance for triple damage but does not change the appearance of the bombs. Does not retain ability to kill normally unkillable enemies.
* Ipecac: Overrides the tear burst, retains the chance for triple damage with large, explosive needles. Does not retain ability to kill normally unkillable enemies.
* Brimstone: Overrides the tear burst, retains the chance for triple damage but does not change the appearance of the laser. Does not retain ability to kill normally unkillable enemies.
* Tech X: Completely overrides Euthanasia. No triple damage, no tear burst. Cannot kill normally unkillable enemies.
* Technology: Overrides the tear burst, retains the chance for triple damage but does not change the appearance of the laser. Does not retain ability to kill normally unkillable enemies.
* Technology 2: The tears that Isaac fire retain all properties of Euthanasia, but the laser is unaffected.
* Tech.5: The laser has a chance to deal triple damage, will not burst into tears, and cannot kill normally unkillable enemies. The tears retain all properties of Euthanasia.
* Godhead: The tears retain all properties of Euthanasia, and while the aura has a chance to do triple damage, it cannot kill normally unkillable enemies, and will not cause a tear burst upon killing an enemy.
* The Parasite: Both regular tears and parasite split tears will cause enemies to burst into tears, with a chance to deal triple damage and kill normally unkillable enemies.
* Cricket's Body: Needle tears will split into 4 small needle tears upon hitting the ground or an enemy. Split tears produced have chance to deal triple damage, but will not cause tear bursts.
* Compound Fracture: Bones will split up as normal, and upon touching an enemy, will burst into 10 bones which will all split. Bones and bone fragments have a chance to deal triple damage (bone fragments deal 50% of Isaac's tear damage by default), and they will instantly kill normal enemies.

## Trivia

* Euthanasia is the act of intentionally ending a person or animal's life in order to end their pain and suffering. It is usually carried out by an injection, hence why this item has the appearance of a needle.
