Dissipate if all else fails

If someone is using LD then good chance everything else is already on CD. Besides, the tank is probably still taking damage during that time.

Really they need to change the requirements for LD. Instead of requiring HP to hit 100%, make it so you need to heal an amount equal to 80-90% of the DRK's max HP. Right now it's stupidly hard, and often completely impossible to hit 100%.

Because if it's come to the fact they've used it, you're probably resource starved as is.

I had a DRK die once, only pull I've ever failed since the expansion started but they likely weren't rotating their cooldowns properly. Didn't have this issue with other DRK. That first DRK used living dead and he uh... died, and almost everything was on cooldown. It was only like 120k hp in 10 seconds.

Only.

Tanks just going from 70 to 80 gained like what, 40k? 50k?

So... working as intended? haha
I think they really have overlooked that. It is not normal that we need to use every single skill we have to top a tank off when WHM press one button.

Tbh, unless a WHM has Bene available LD is not really easy to deal with either.

Had a run the other day of Akadamy where the DRK pulled the first three groups. Unfortunately the RDM was a Crafter main who'd never learned (or even tried) AoEing, and the DNC just seemed to only AoE randomly.

Needless to say as a WHM I'd already burned all my oGCD heals by the time the DRK had burned their C/Ds.... Cure 2 is not strong enough to save a DRK even when spamming it. That was a bit of an eye opener.

Now I probably didn't do everything right, and I know I missed the initial Walking Dead activation... still though, that is a lot of HP we have to heal. @_@

I personally wait Living Dead to have 5s left and do Emergency Tactic + Adlo + Recitation + Excog + 1 lustrate, that's usually enough.

However, any remotely competent DRK would have Abyssal Drain up and used at this point to eleviate the issue. (maybe you're unlucky and got Darknoobs)

Don't forget that during the first 5s, your fairy does heal, if you add up the HoT, over the course of those 10s she'll do a good 30k heal on the tank. it's really not that hard IF you know it's coming (and any good DRK will tell you "LD next pull" or something

Yeah, it's that crazy for SCH ATM.

On behalf of all tank mains and DRK players especialy - I am sorry.
