That's not an issue of Living Dead, then, and this is something I kinda realised.


If you took Living Dead, and put it on WAR, and put Holmgang on Dark Knight. What would you have?

You'd still have Dark Knights complaining about having the "Weakest CD" because they have no way to help themselves. All the issues that come with Living Dead, comes with Holmgang. But Warrior's synergy with it's own CD's is just that potent that it helps mitigate the issues created by holmgang.

I spoke with my healer, and they summed it up pretty well.

"For fights where there will be AoE's on the ground, I'd rather heal a Dark Knight through their Living Dead. But for a fight with raid-wide damage, I'd rather heal a Warrior."

I think that's a pretty fair way to look at it - that Dark Knight is the only class that lacks synergy with its own CD.
