Items can be found in chests, shops and special rooms. Some items such as coins and keys can also be dropped by enemies.
Equipment
Equipment are items that you can carry with you that offer some sort of effect. Some items need to be activated in order to trigger their effect, e.g. Adventurer's Fedora; the key to activate the corresponding item is displayed right under its icon when in player's inventory.
There are 4 different slots: headwear, armor, footwear and handwear. You can only have one piece of equipment per slot. With the help of a Prestige altar it is possible to carry up to 8 items, however it should be noted the player will not be able to activate any prestiged active items.

- WARNING Upon using Prestige room and making Megingjord permanent, the ability to switch weapons is disabled making it useless. Locking out your currently unequipped weapon. Worse, if you have no second weapon picked up as of yet, it will still allow you to pick up a second weapon locking out your first weapon for the rest of the run. The only possible remedy being able to find another Megingjord (unconfirmed). Consider making almost any other handwear permanent by swapping the other handwear in first, using prestige, then picking Megingjord back up. Or picking up a "trash" weapon and making it your unequipped weapon before using prestige.
