    Convalescence increases the shielding from Nocturnal Aspected Benefic or Adloquium, which takes priority over the Blackest Night shield.
    This is one of my highest concerns about Dark Knight overall, the interaction with healers. Besides shields blocking Blackest Night, there is whole blood price vs. holy dynamic (albeit much more toned down from Heavensward...but only because blood price got worse!), and healers straining to use every last cooldown and GCD to keep you afloat once you use Living Dead...and it never turn into Walking Dead, so when Living Dead wears off you die for real right after because the healers ran out of steam.

    There's other examples of course, but while the other tanks and healers work well together, Dark Knight feels like many of their mechanics actively conflict with healers doing their jobs.
    Edit: the rest is still appropriate

    I'm pretty sure this tidbit actually isn't true, TBN takes priority. I've never had it not pop on a TB no matter how many shields I had, and while it might hold true for AAs if it goes in order of cast, shield healers rarely waste time shielding you for fluff damage, nor should they.
