There was massive backlash against this skill when it first released and you, Square-Enix (i.e. Yoshi-P), told us you were looking into changes.
I know some have tried claiming "it has synergy with Benediction, it's not so bad", but in order for two abilities to have synergy, they have to provide more utility combined than when each is used alone. Living Dead virtually needs Benediction to just function as intended when it matters. This is why the ability sucks.
When you got raid mechanics which eat into the action time of healers just after massive tank busters, it makes it even worse. For example: Ramuh's Centaur Charge in E5S.
We've made progress in making jobs more streamlined and more accessible for everyone, however this ability is still a glaring problem. Largely in part because the difficulty in handling it is not even up to the Dark Knight. It's a burden placed solely on a healer. Dark Knight has the poorest self-healing abilities when it comes to a 10 second window, making the DRKs efforts to handle Walking Dead just a drop in the bucket.
It's been FIVE years since this ability was released. Dark Knight has gone through TWO major redesigns, yet this clunky skill still remains.
When will we see it addressed?
