* The sombrero gives a bonus of approximately (sqrt(monster level * sombrero weight) / 10). Note that this formula seems to underestimate the bonus at higher weights and/or monster levels.
* The sombrero gives a bonus of approximately (sqrt(monster level * sombrero weight) / 10).
* Before NS-13, the best approximation for sombrero stat gain was: [[Image:Sombrero Formula.png|Floor (Sqrt (monster level) * sombrero weight * 3 / 100)]]

* [[Sombrero vs Volleyball]] contains information about when Sombreros and Volleyball-type familiars are best for stat gains based on familiar weights and monster level. Before NS-13, a Hovering Sombrero would have beaten a Volleyball of the same weight at '''monster level 70'''.  Now, this value is thought to be around '''monster level 104'''.

Notes

  • The sombrero gives a bonus of approximately (sqrt(monster level * sombrero weight) / 10).
  • Before NS-13, the best approximation for sombrero stat gain was: Floor (Sqrt (monster level) * sombrero weight * 3 / 100)
  • Sombrero vs Volleyball contains information about when Sombreros and Volleyball-type familiars are best for stat gains based on familiar weights and monster level. Before NS-13, a Hovering Sombrero would have beaten a Volleyball of the same weight at monster level 70. Now, this value is thought to be around monster level 104.
  • Before NS-13, tiny maracas typically gave better stat gain than annoying pitchfork at Monster Levels above 50. A lead necklace was only superior to an annoying pitchfork from the The Castle in the Clouds in the Sky onwards. See annoying pitchfork for details.
  • Before South of The Border was implemented, the Hovering Sombrero was Jick's seldom-seen personal familiar.
