Why was Living Dead not removed?

[Lyth]

...

I missed this, and it's a really interesting point. I really want to see the devs formally state their views on invulnerabilities and whether they have plans to re-evaluate them. Because these are some of the worst double standards that we've seen.

...

I did read your post. As a matter of fact, I've been making the case for Living Dead to be changed for two expansions now.

The effective duration is important because a lot of people misinterpret Living Dead to mean that you have 20 seconds of invulnerability. It isn't. It's flat out inferior to Holmgang, both in terms of average effective duration and effective recast, with an obnoxious death penalty that nobody wants to deal with, no UI depiction of the remaining healing required to cleanse the effect, and blatantly incorrect tooltips.

But these people think it's fine, so it must be fine. Right?

Because it's fine.

Because it's a good skill.

No ulterior motives here.
