Notes

• If you are using Double-Fisted Skull Smashing to wield two ranged weapons, it only applies to your main weapon.

History

• On May 24, 2006, the description of this skill was changed from "This skill makes you significantly less likely to miss when firing a crossbow."
• Until then, when a player was attacking with a crossbow and had this skill, the following message was given:

"You do not aim with your hand. He who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of Sneaky Pete. You aim with your Moxie."

• On March 18, 2008, the skill was renamed from "Crossbow Fever" to "Disco Fever" and was applied to all ranged weapons. Previously, the bonus had applied only to crossbows.

References

• The skill "Disco Fever" may be a reference to the 1978 film Disco Fever, which is appropriate for a Disco Bandit.
• The description refers to the '80's ad campaign for Pringles, whose slogan was "I've got the fever for the flavor of a Pringle."
• The former message was a reference to "The Gunslinger's Catechism" from Stephen King's Dark Tower series:

I do not aim with my hand.

He who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.

I aim with my Eye.

I do not shoot with my hand.

He who shoots with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.

I shoot with my Mind.

I do not kill with my hand.

He who kills with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.

I kill with my Heart.
