DRK skill: Living Dead

[Hycinthus]

Honest question as a new DRK.

Should I make a macro to notify party chat that I’m using LD and to cure me?

Any rule of when I should or should not use LD?

Healers should technically notice you using it. With that said, simple chat messages for LD aren't too intrusive, so you can def make a notification.

LD is absolutely fine to use if you're with a WHM and he has bene up. With time you'll learn to keep track of benediction. It can even be used in a planned manner with WHM and give you and your healer many benefits by reducing the need to heal you for 10s. If there is no WHM present you want to avoid using LD. If it's an emergency and you're about to die, you can pop it in order to survive 10 more seconds. That can be the difference between a wipe or clearing a pack of mobs. But expect to die at the end of it.
Any other use of LD should be planned out with your party/healers.
