Synergies

Emergency Help:

If the player also has [Medkit] , reload time is decreased by 66%, damage is increased by 50%, and random enemies will periodically have explosions erupt around them, damaging them and hurting other enemies around them in a short distance. This explosion can also do damage to the player.

[Medkit]
Firing With Flair:

If the player also has [Amulet of the Pit Lord] , [Master of Unlocking] , [Copper Ammolet] , or [Springheel Boots] , the Flare Gun turns green and is guaranteed to inflict enemies with green fire, which leaves (non-boss) enemies permanently burning. If the player has [Hot Lead] in their inventory while this synergy is active, this is counted as a separate effect - allowing it to simultaneously deal two burn effects.

Solar Flare:

If the player also has [Mr. Accretion Jr.] , the Flare Gun fires comets which will push enemies along its path and explode on impact with a wall.
