What does the Charm Horn do in Enter The Gungeon?
The Charm Horn is a B-rank active item that charms enemies around you for 10 seconds. This causes enemies to fight with you rather than against you, which can be a good thing when clearing rooms in the Gungeon. It does not, however, work against bosses.
The Charm Horn shares one Synergy with one gun in the Gungeon.
Is the Charm Horn a good item in Enter The Gungeon?
The Charm Horn is a good item in Enter the Gungeon. The Charm effect it inflicts on nearby enemies can help reduce the number of enemies in your current room by turning them against their own kind. However, the most common use case for the Charm Horn is arguably for stealing items from shops in the Gungeon.
Best Synergy for the Charm Horn in Enter The Gungeon
The Charm Horn shares a Synergy with the Banana in Enter the Gungeon – Hornucopia.
Hornucopia
The Hornucopia Synergy between the Banana and the Charm Horn will cause the Banana to fire five explosive bananas that bounce. One of the five bananas has a chance to explode and turn into four exploding bananas.
Using the Charm Horn with this Synergy active will cause the item to fire a banana at every enemy it charms.
How to Use the Charm Horn in Enter The Gungeon?
The Charm Horn is an active item, which means that you need to use the item to charm nearby enemies around the Gungeon.
While the Charm Horn’s active effect works well for charming enemies in random rooms in the Gungeon, it is best used to steal valuable items from shops in the Gungeon instead. You can do this by standing in front of or aiming at the shopkeeper with the Charm Horn. Take this small window of opportunity to steal your desired item from the shop. Doing so will give you 1 point of Curse, however.
Conclusion
Overall, the Charm Horn is a good item that can help you reduce the number of enemies in your current room. Charmed enemies will fight alongside you, but be careful of Charmed enemies’ bullets as these can still damage you on hit even if they’re not shooting directly at you.
Don’t forget to attempt to steal an item from the shop with the Charm Horn as well, as this can net you a valuable shop item for free.
