    The biggest issue with living dead is that it’s the only tank ultimate CD that requires someone else knows how it works other than you. When a WAR holmgangs they have options to save themselves once they hit 1hp, thrill, equilibrium, inner beast, even storm’s path, as long as they can get their own health back up from 1 they’re fine. Hallowed is hallowed, PLD is safe for 10 seconds and can fix themselves up with clemency. But DRK, on activating LD, the healer can screw it over by preventing them hitting 1hp, which happens a lot in pug groups because allowing your tank to hit 1hp is crazy talk. Once it does activate the healer can screw it over by healing you to full in the first 2 seconds making the rest of that free time wasted, or the healer can not know they need to heal you to full and not understand why you suddenly died. The DRK themselves can’t do anything about it, they have nowhere near enough healing power to heal through LD making it useless in a situation without a healer like palace of the dead, something none of the other tanks run into.

    This reliance on someone else who simply could not know how it works or may not even be available makes it by far the worst of the 3.

    You could make a game where all you did was run through fields of flowers holding hands and you'd still get a guy telling you you're doing it wrong.

    I agree so much on this.
    When I run roulettes as DRK I just ignore that I have Living Dead. Everytime I have used it in a PUG/roulette situation it has either been overwritten by the healer healing over it so Walking never activates or it gets me killed. This is even with me macroing in concise instructions on how to handle it. I literally have yet to get a healer in a roulette that knew what to do.
    This really sucks because I end up being down one important defensive tool that would really help a run if it wasn't so convoluted.
    An ability shouldn't require a pre-made just to predictably function.
