    Which of these would you rather have on you? More specifically for boss fights.

    Neither of them are particularly useful, but if I have to choose, I would go with the Book of Belial. The increase damage last for the whole fight, where as the Necrinomicon is just one hit, which is important when nearly all the bosses summon more enemies.

    Belial. As mentioned, it lasts for the whole room. Also, it doesn't seem that the Necronomicon does much damage to bosses.

    I don't think I've used the Necronomicon, but Belial is pretty good if you don't have a high base damage.
