The Jig "effect" has always been a heated debate amongst bards. I
personally believe that it DOES NOT increase mana regen. The best way to
experiment is to have a caster cast the same spell as fast as they can until
the can't cast anymore (OOM). Time them to full mana. Repeat the same
scenario and time them while playing the Jig. I think you'll find no
respectable deviation.

As an aside, if someone drops you from a group for not playing a certain
song, then you didn't want to be with that group anyway.

Hi all

When I play EQ I allways get asked to play the Jig to increase mana
regeneration. I was asked this for 4 times today and I really hate it. I
even got kicked from a group when I refused to play it because the mana is
not regenerating faster. Can anyone recommend me what to do?
I have one more problem. I'm lvl 15 at the moment and I can hardly ever solo
a blue creature. I'm wearing full banded armor, and I have my 1H slash
allways maxed. I'm using tentacle whip as a weapon, no it's not twinked I
got it as in a bet when someone didn't beleive me that selo's is faster than
sow. And I just bought the armor. Can anyone please tell me why can't I solo
a blue creature without loosing 90-95% of my health.
