DRK balance

[Quor]

If the healer is dead what use does LD have other then prolonging that wipe?

It'll still last a total of 4-14 seconds "longer" than Holmgang would.

Holmgang has the exact same problem, only instead of being reduced to 1 hp and then living for 10s before we die, we're reduced to 1 hp and then die when Holmgang wears off in another 2-4 seconds.

LD is objectively better as a tank "oh sh*t" CD, since Walking Dead lasts almost twice as long as Holmgang does. Yes, you need healer coordination, but that's rather easily solved with a macro (make it separate from hitting LD if you're worried about macro lag).
