Complaints about Living Dead are honestly misguided. The complaint SHOULD be that it shouldn't have come to using Living Dead in the first place. Somewhere along the line, you, or someone in your party screwed the proverbial pooch. This job has so many low cooldown mitigation skills like Warriors, but also some high cooldown big damage reduction skills like Paladins. Then there's their two vampiric skills (Single target AND AOE), INT debuff for magical fights, off GCD skills that can be reset with parry, damage up skills, mp drain, A FLASH THAT DOES DAMAGE, a Flaming Arrow type skill that has a higher DOT potency, A gap closer, and very strong MP recovery skills which include a Riot Blade which recovers more MP than Riot Blade, a cooldown that recovers MP with damage taken on a low CD, and another that increases damage done and recovers MP on a low CD when off tanking. This tank has everything needed to be great, except one thing apparently... players who know how to use it to tank. The job has a lot already, let's wait until actually competent players weigh in on what the class is lacking. As it stands, I don't see much that it's missing.
