The Ritual Chamber — Judas Walkthrough

Navigate The Ritual Chamber with Judas in The Binding of Isaac. Learn strategies, tips, and item interactions to conquer this challenging area.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Judas is unlocked after defeating Satan for the first time.
  2. 2
    He begins with 1 Red Heart container, 3 coins, and The Book of Belial.
  3. 3
    Judas has a 1.35x damage multiplier.
  4. 4
    Black Judas, a form of Judas, can be achieved by dying with Judas' Shadow. Black Judas has a 2x damage multiplier and starts with 2 Black Hearts.
  5. 5
    Black Judas' ability to gain Red Heart containers differs based on DLC. In Repentance and Repentance+, items granting Red Heart containers give Black Hearts instead.
  6. 6
    Black Judas counts as Judas for achievements and unlocks, including Tainted Judas' bonus effects when using Dark Arts.
Tips
  • The Book of Belial's damage increase is significant and should be utilized.
  • In Rebirth, The Book of Belial guarantees a Devil or Angel Room after a boss. In later DLCs, it increases the chance by 12.5%.
  • Prioritize health upgrades due to Judas' low starting health.
  • Devil Room deals can be risky.
  • Dead Cat is a good early pickup for Judas as it has minimal downside.
  • Items that activate on low health (Scapular, Monkey Paw, Glyph of Balance, Whore of Babylon) are easily triggered with Judas.
  • Birthright transforms The Book of Belial into a passive item that scales its damage boost with charges of the active item above it. This interaction may not work with all item types.
