DRK balance

If you're a WHM with Benediction ready, yes it is better. If not then you're going to struggle, especially nowadays where tanks are going full vit. Before at least they had less hp due to the strength gear they had to get, meaning less hp to recovery. But now? It's insanely high for one thing and they will "start" from 1 hp, meaning that you have to heal 20k hp (more or less) in less than 10 seconds AND while the boss is still attacking, most likely negating one of your heals if the boss can hit for more than 5k damage (and I can even name a few).

And sure, while my AST can heal 5k with benefic 2, I have to do that within 10 seconds which means I have to cast it 4 times in a row: miss one and the tank is dead at 80-90%

Sure it can be fixed with a macro, but why not fix the skill itself? Maybe increase the healing taken by 100% during Walking Dead or lower the hp required to 50% instead, because it's highly unreliable as of now. Holmgang at least doesn't kill you while at 99% of hp!

the bolded shows you dont know how it works at all. drk doesnt need to be healed to full, they need to be healed for their max hp. case in point, back when it was first brought in, bene actually didnt get rid of it, because they would be healed for max minus the 1 hp they had. any dmg they take does not affect when LD would come off. any regens on them also eases the heals needed to keep them alive.
two things about your ast i am wondering. how are your heals about 6-800 less then mine when just about everyone should be at 210 now? mine is only 211. as ast, you have the second strongest single target heal in the game. ED would most likely take the required heals down to one. even if it was on cd, your other cool downs would help you keep them alive. really the only thing needed in regards to living dead is paying attention.

edit, thinking about it, the only bosses that would even hit that hard, you wouldnt be healing it by yourself.
