— In-game description

Living Dead is an action unlocked by questing at level 50. It is available for Dark Knight.

Notes

  • Similar to Holmgang.png  Holmgang, if the dark knight dies while the action is active, they will enter a zombie-like state with 1 HP for ten seconds. For ten seconds, the dark knight must be healed for an amount equal to 100% of their HP, e.g. if they have 15000 max HP, they must be healed for at least 15000 to exit the zombie state.

Etymology

The living dead means corpses which have been reanimated by supernatural forces. The term is mostly associated with the 1968 movie Night of the Living Dead.
