Perhaps instead making it work with our MP instead? Our MP full heals upon use, and all damage from that point on for the next 10s is heavily mitigated and taken from our MP pool while our HP remains untouched. If our MP hits 0, Living Dead immediately ends and our MP is restored by 1K times the amount of seconds Living Dead stayed up. Taking a blow that would empty our MP pool completely during LD's duration would not bleed into our HP, so using it right before a heavy tankbuster, even if just at 600 MP, would safeguard our health completely. While one could say it would be too strong like this, it fixes the LD usability problems, and gives it a unique flavor that also requires a bit of skill to use.
