Subject: Re: Usefullness of Jig


Jig is useful at my level (25) i was grouped with 2 SK and a paladin,
fighting conituous battles (that is, i was able to heal them enought
that we had ZERO down time, since they taunted well and spread out the
damage among them). after 2 or 3 battles they would say OOS (out of
stamina) and i would switch from anthem, chain, heal to anthem, jig,
heal. Later i figured out it was better to START with anthem, jig, heal,
and switch to chain only when the mob was about to run.

Jig allowed us to fight mobs for a good 15 minutes without rest. As in
one after the other, without pausing at all. which ever tank was
strongest would run and pull, when the mod was down to 20% hp.

After 15 minutes or so of fighting, we would have to rest for mana and
just to top off health, then we were back at it.
