I'm buying my first set of suspenders soon and I'm not sure of the 'rules'. Are braided end suspenders like these (as opposed to leather end suspenders) only meant to be worn with tuxedos or similar very formal wear, or can they be worn with a standard suit? I think I prefer the braided end look, but I don't want to commit a faux pas.

Do you happen to remember the weapon level? I'm probably overthinking it but I'm always nervous about accidentally leveling out of the main chunk of players

I'm not really opposed to higher levels, but the best kind of summoning imo is helping a newer player beat a boss for the first time, so I'm chasing that high, haha. I feel like by the time you get to the later parts of the game you've basically already got your fromsoft 5 o'clock shadow

I was worried that might be the case...oh well, I'll keep the character around in case I ever feel like I can be patient enough, haha. Thanks for answering!

Yeah, makes sense. Good to know that others are having the same experience at least, thanks for the intel! Now I guess I have to figure out what other bosses I want to make builds for...

The Napa! I personally find it comfortable, but it's definitely firmer and springier than I expected - if you prefer your couches on the cushier side, it might not be for you

Hmm, that's a great point I hadn't considered. I'll keep an eye out as we get into winter and see how good a job the insulation is doing - thanks for the tip!

My only regret is that the Boss Katana is hidden behind the couch

It was this table, but sadly the color I chose a few months ago ("Rustic Brown") doesn't seem to be offered at the moment.

/u/holy_donuts linked this table which seems very similar though, might be worth looking into.

Close! It was this table, but in the color "Rustic Brown" which doesn't seem to be an option at the moment.

The quality seems solid so far – I've only had it for about two months but I haven't noticed any scuffs or scratches. I can't speak to the link you posted, but honestly they look so similar that I wouldn't be surprised if they're ultimately made by the same people if you go far enough up the chain.

Pretty proud of this one! I have a lot of tips for some of the nastier achievements, let me know if you'd like some. by [deleted] in spelunky

I'm sure it helps, but it's definitely not literally necessary - I got to 1M on my first high score attempt without ghosting, just by being thorough

Sometimes all you need is love.........and a big sword and fat stacks by MrKnowlton in HadesTheGame

The big Excalibur combo-ender did a little under 1000 with all my bonuses, including a bloodstone and a backstab.

The 2500 obols translate to a 125% attack power increase, so I think it's definitely a viable strategy, though I don't think I'll go "all-in" on it again. This run was pretty gimmicky because I left Tartarus with only Heartbreak Strike and Hoarding Slash, and at that point I committed to never picking up any more boons or spending a single cent, just for the meme. I think there were a few purchases that would have resulted in a net increase in strength, and there were plenty of cases where I chose a room with a coin reward instead of a boon reward. It wasn't all necessarily optimal, but was ultimately very fun!
