Living Dead

[Launched]

No, Living Dead is fine. It has its own advantages and disadvantages that makes it balanced with the other two invincibility cooldowns.

Compared to Hallowed, it's on a 2 minute shorter cooldown which means you have more freedom deciding when to use it, and it lasts the same amount of time. The healing requirement means it's not a direct upgrade.

Compared to Holmgang, they both require healing but Living Dead doesn't require a target, doesn't root you, and last nearly twice as long. To balance that it has a 2 minute longer cooldown.

All 3 healers can easily get a DRK back to full HP and pretty much every use of Living Dead should be planned like the others, not used as a panic button.

For at best an extra 3s invuln (not 4 seconds - WAR can sit on 1hp or a regen ticking, DRK requires healing. Waiting 10s in WD will kill your DRK).

You're ignoring that Hallowed and Holmgang don't get triggered when you would die, you have to activate them earlier. So it's more like 5s Holmgang vs 9s Living Dead vs 9s Hallowed Ground.

It's actually not the same amount of time. You have to consider at least 9 seconds of Living Dead and 10 seconds of Walking dead, that's at least 11~19 seconds of DRK being safe.

i love when ppl bring this scenario up. Like a DRK is really going to use the additional leeway that living dead gives you, everyone uses it right before the attack that would otherwise kill them and if it doesn't kill you then living dead was wasted cause it doesn't provide any kind of additional affect, not even knockback prevention. This is a pointless attribute to walking dead almost for anything other than attacks like ahk mourn. Tank buster is 10 seconds away let me pop my living dead now so that I can save 10 more seconds on cooldown... ayyyyyyyy lmao.

That doesn't make it any less true?
