Notes

  • You may only use a single bear skill per combat.

History

  • Originally, this skill gave a mixture of Stench Damage and Spooky Damage when used as a Zombie Slayer (and physical damage otherwise).
  • This was silently changed to give solely Cold Damage (regardless of class) at an unknown time; that change was first noticed on September 20, 2013.
  • It was silently changed again some time around September 24, 2013 -- once again giving split Stench Damage and Spooky Damage for Zombie Slayers, and physical damage for non-Zombie-Slayers.

References

  • The film company, Kodak, used to use the phrase "A Kodak Moment" in their ads to denote a time that was perfect to take a picture so you could remember it.
  • A species of bear native to Alaska is named the Kodiak bear.
  • "You're like a bear, man..." is a reference to a scene in the 1996 film Swingers.
