🧪 How Overpowered Lamp Works
Mechanics
- +1 extra roll for any chance-based on-hit effect (e.g., freezes, poisons, shocks).
- Default unlock: appears in your item pool from the start.
- Stacks within a run: multiple Lamps mean multiple independent rolls per hit.
Math note
If a base effect has probability p, one Lamp makes the overall trigger chance
1 − (1 − p)^2. For example, 15% becomes about 27.75%. With more Lamps, you add more independent rolls.
Why it’s strong
✓ Pros
- Makes RNG effects reliable, especially with many projectiles or fast attacks.
- Works with a wide range of on-hit items.
- Scales naturally as you add more proc sources.
✗ Cons
- No direct damage on its own; needs proc-based items to shine.
- Marginal value if your build lacks chance-based effects.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
What does “+1 chance to proc” actually mean?
It gives an additional independent roll for any chance-based on-hit effect. In the developer’s words, a 15% effect “is rolled twice” if you have a Lamp.
Is Overpowered Lamp unlocked by default?
Yes. It’s available in the item pool from the start.
Does it stack?
Yes. Multiple Lamps can be found in a single run; each one adds another roll. Exact stacking formula isn’t officially documented, but community evidence supports additive extra rolls.
