Upon reading a bunch of different ideas on how Living Dead may be changed, we have a big, open blank notebook of endless possibilities if we want to make it unique to DRK, and after thinking and editing a fair bit, I think this is how I would change it.
Living Dead:
- Grants the effect of Living Dead. When HP is reduced to 0, instead of being KO'd this puts you under the status of Walking Dead and grants the effect of Soulripper
duration:10s
Walking Dead: Your HP cannot go below 1, and you are shielded for 50% of your maximum HP.
duration:8s
Soulripper: Enshrouded in darkness, you make a last stand and go berserk, ripping life force out from your foes. HP is restored with every attack successfully delivered.
Cure Potency: 400
Duration: 8s

This removes the death penalty and has some safeguard to prevent dying after the expiration. Although this may be on par with Warrior with holmgang due to the outrageously high sustain WAR has even outside of its invuln. The 8s duration prevents it from being arguably better than Hallowed Ground by a mile and then some, and could be made 6s for balance if need be
Congrats, they read this thread.
