The Wiz

The Wiz is a passive item added in the Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth expansion.

Effects

 * Isaac fires tears from both eyes at the same time.
 * Isaac's tears are fired diagonally outwards, similar to the effect of the R U A Wizard? pill.
 * Isaac's tears travel above all obstacles.

Interactions

 * 20/20: Shoots two pairs of tears diagonally.
 * 20/20 + Conjoined (Transformation): Shoots a pair of three tears in a tight triangle formation diagonally.
 * Azazel: Azazel fires two short diagonal Brimstone beams in the chosen direction.
 * Azazel + Anti-Gravity: Overrides The Wiz.
 * Brimstone: Shoots two Brimstone beams diagonally.
 * Cain : Makes Cain fire in the two diagonal directions instead of just the right eye one as the R U A Wizard? pill does.
 * Conjoined: Fires double tears in both directions, but removes the center tear.
 * Dr. Fetus: Shoots two bombs diagonally.
 * Epic Fetus: The crosshair is controlled diagonally, as if rotated 45 degrees clockwise from usual (i.e.: the up arrow will move it in a northeast direction), and two missiles are fired, similar to the effect of 20/20. The crosshair can be moved in the cardinal directions by pressing two arrow keys at once (e.g.: pressing the up and right arrows will move the crosshair right).
 * Marked: Fires two shots aimed diagonally from the mark.
 * Mom's Knife: Gives two knives that fire diagonally.
 * The Inner Eye/Mutant Spider: Gives both eyes triple/quad shot, flying diagonally.
 * The Ludovico Technique: Small tear orbits main tear. Tear controls rotated 45 degrees clockwise - holding up makes it move northeast and so on.
 * Tech X: Shoots two rings diagonally.
 * Technology: Lasers fire diagonally.
 * Tractor Beam: Both tears will follow the beam, making it easier to hit enemies with them. It works like 20/20 with Spectral tears. This somehow does not work if Mom's Knife is equipped. Both knifes ignore the path of the beam and remain flying diagonally.
 * Diplopia: Picking up a second The Wiz will make Isaac fire 4 tears in a wider diagonal layout.
 * R U A Wizard? pill: Makes the player shoot forward with normal fire rate and 90 degrees outwards with half fire rate.
 * Analog Stick: Will make one tear go forwards and the other out on the side while shooting diagonally

Trivia

 * This item is possibly a reference to Nethack, where an unidentified "conical hat" can be either a cornuthaum (i.e. a "wizard hat") or a cursed dunce cap. Equipping the conical hat will identify it, but if it's a cursed dunce cap it will lower your intelligence and be difficult to remove. The Wiz has the word "DUNCE" printed in the image but is officially named after wizardry. This confusion alludes to the ambiguous identity of the conical hat.
