That said, not sure about the dot drain - it sounds similar to Circle of Scorn, but I like that idea. Something you can only activate when you're at low health which gives you some sort of regen effect. A DoT drain, heals when you take damage (like BP for Health), or even just a flat regen effect on yourself. It'd synergize well with Living Dead in any of these scenarios, and would overall be a better addition to the kit, for sure.
What is a forum if not a place for people to bounce ideas? I've had my disagreements with individuals on this thread alone but that doesn't mean I'm not open to conversation. No need to apologize. We all get stubborn. =)

The DoT would fall in line with the lore of Dark Knight. It would also give us some sort of sustained heal while damaging an enemy, similar to Mercy Stroke but a different flavor/style. Yeah, it could be worse if the damage on that one mob actually dies before the tick goes through, but the idea is to make it different enough to feel like a skill that belongs with the Dark Knight and useful without it being nothing until something dies.
