Subject: Jaxan's Jig


Greetings all,

I've noticed that nobody seems to know how Jaxan's Jig can be helpful...
one of the websites mentioned that it increases the recovery pulse rate for
all three bars (not just stamina) from approximately 8sec/pulse to 6
sec/pulse. So what? Well, what this means is:

- If you are in a party with casters, they get a 20-25% increase on mana
regen
(this has been independently verified with a cleric)
- If you are in a party with other bards, your healing songs should
increase at the
same rate (haven't tested this one)

Just the first one alone, along with psalm and selo's, make you an even
more critical member of a party. Some bards, when presented with this
information, say "but that makes my mana regen song useless," and so won't
even try it. Of course, the mana regen song is, what, 50%? So it's still
an upgrade. But bards who don't take advantage of this "side effect" of
Jaxan's are, in my opinion, slighting themselves and their party.

Anyhow, just thought I'd share :-)
