    Hows this for a revised "Living dead"

    I have been thinking about a nice middle ground for an "oh s#*t" button on dark and i think i have the balanced answer. In keeping with how risky it is to use how about a hallowed ground invunerable state for the same duration however, your hp bar is frozen. No top up heals no damage sustained. Lore wise, you can't heal a zombie, and you can't kill what is already dead. Makes sense and keeps with the theme. Thoughts?
    Sorry if this has already been suggested

    The problem with that suggestion is that in many instances where you would use an "Oh s**t" button your health is incredibly low. If your health then got locked at this amount, it could very easily result in just delaying your death by 10 seconds, as you would just be killed immediately on the buff dropping, instead of saving you.

    While it could potentially work for preemptively soaking a tank buster, not being able to be healed makes its usage much more limited.

    I think the first part of living dead should change to %hp forms a ward and keep the second part walking dead as is. Maybe 25‰hp or to keep in line with drk being selfish can siphon 3% hp from each member in party.

    So you basically want hallowed ground with a shorter cooldown?

    The ability is fine as is. Its better than holmgang (only procs WHEN you would die, after wards it lasts 10 seconds. Both of these are stronger than holmgang. The con is the increased cd and need to top off which actually isnt that hard anymore now that everyone understands how it works).

    Hallowed has the longest cd of any ability in the game for a reason, and is probably one of the few things that still will allow paladins to be relevent in this new magic damage world which is ignoring their shields and two of their abilities. You know--the paladins whom do the least damage, laughable aoe, laughable threat of any of the tanks with the promised trade off they will be the most 'defensive focused'.

    lol let them be, They want something to complain about so they will find the single smallest thing possible, and latch onto it.
