Walking dead should be a gift not a curse

Not sure if you're trolling or not, but you're basically taking our death-cheat ability and turning it into the most powerful offensive cooldown in the game, bar none. There's no basis for it and it would outdo both HG and Holmgang by lightyears, and create more balance issues than it fixes.

LMAO your comment just made my night!

On a more serious note, walking dead should be designed to where it couldnt be abused well for obvious reasons, adding a ton of lifetapping to stop the effect fast wouldnt be such a bad idea would it? prevent people from cheesing mechanics if it was harder to keep the full time of invincibility up. The dying thing, thats what gets me. For a dps maybe thatd have some merit, but for something like hg or holmgang, it really defeats the purpose its supposed to serve imo. To that effect id rather it deal increased healing, and 'reverse' something that would push you out of the mode fast so it couldnt be exploited honestly. I dont care how they do it personally, but it is rather stupid how it is now. Even worse as max hp multiplies out the roof.

ie: "before i pop LD i like to use a max potion of vitality, really gets the healers blood pumpin'"

Well, thank you for giving me a way to make my friends hate me even more when I pull so much they can't DPS due to sheer damage... Now to make them hate me even more!

Youre welcome

also living deads total run time is 10 seconds, but that doesnt mean it gives you 10 seconds of not death, guys healers can just as easilly bene you before you even go into walking dead. How often does this happen to a paladin about to pop HG or Holmgang(slight animation lock) even if you end up with 3 hp before the 10 seconds of ld are up, its a wasted cd, over the healer spasm healing you in panic at the sight of that debuff

Most cases popping ld too early means its wasted, popping it right before the very last second might get you into WD, or animation lock kills you. The entire thing looks good on paper (whoa a whole 20 seconds! that makes drk the bestest") but in reality, if wd hits, its usually before the 10 seconds of ld, usually a second or two before, and if your health drops before the 10 seconds, well now its just the actual wd invincibility period. 1 1/2 to 2 full 3-hit rotations. honestly the 50 percent damage would still only grant 2 souleaters, tops - that still wouldnt keep you from dying really adding the buff to living dead is stupid because it could just make it a wasted coodldown instead of a last resort. i propose a 300%- 500% healing recieved from souleater while in wd- with the revised stipulation of wd falling off be 50% of max hp and not 100%) or just put brink of death on if the buff ends and you arent healed to max. That in itself is a big enough drawback to make you think hard how liberally youd use the cd imo and really would be a last resort/last chance
