Tea party hats that are actually useful in a run. This table is mostly aimed at players in Hardcore mode.
Note: "when it's worth pursuing" means "under what conditions would I invest turns or other resources into obtaining this hat", not "under what conditions would I use this buff if I magically happen to have this hat in my sack". (However, some people have edited this table to include the latter information, particularly on hats whose acquisition cost is negligible.)
Don't forget that you can get a tea party buff when drunk.
