Dark Knight Megathread

[Archwizard]

This ability has survived since the start of Heavensward. In about 5 months, Living Dead will have been around for seven whole years. I'd bet an easy $100 this ability stays for the rest of this expansion and probably onward. D;

My thinking is this may be the first opportunity in a long while where LD's actually being seriously examined, considering that the damage output this expansion (meant to take advantage of the new "active" mitigation style of timing a block in the first few seconds) means TBN itself isn't able to do the job of three other mitigation skills on its own anymore like it has been since its introduction, so people are actually seeing LD's deficit outside of raids.

With a community-wide decrying of DRKs feeling left in the dust by the changes that came to other tanks, being significantly harder to heal than other tanks, the introduction of a new healer they're likely watching like hawks (who cannot pull a DRK out of WD without a surplus of resources that were likely spent keeping them out of LD), etc... this is prime time to actually call attention to LD's failings, rather than just tossing it onto the pile of wishlisting for an "otherwise okay" job.
