Glitched Photo
The Glitched Photo, sometimes called the Glitched Polaroid, is a passive quest item from the Epiphany mod. This item can't be found normally, and it's obtainable only during the process of unlocking Tarnished Eden.
Effect
The Glitched Photo will spawn in the first floor's starting room if the player backtracks to it after defeating the first boss in under 1 minute with Tainted Eden. While held, the
D10 and
D12 effects will activate every time they enter a new room, rerolling all enemies and grid entities.
If Tainted Eden reaches Depths 2 (or equivalent floors) with the photo, the first room of such floor will have all doors locked except for the Strange Door, which must be opened with the photo itself. The player will then find themselves in a dark room, with a glitchy mass of pixels at the center: touching it will reveal it as Tarnished Eden, the character will be unlocked, and the run will end.
Notes
- As with every other quest item, the Glitched Photo can't be obtained via
Bag of Crafting,
Lemegeton,
Death Certificate or similar item-spawning effects.
- When unlocking Tarnished Eden, the run will end and will be counted as a loss. Runs with the Glitched Photo after TR Eden is already unlocked will not stop the player from progressing past Depths 2, and it will be possible to keep the item for the rest of the run.
