People would just use it when planning to go out of their village, when it has infinite duration you don't have to worry about what you're gonna encounter.

It also means that you waste it uselessly if you do get knocked while hunting, however.

How is it useless if it saved you from dying?

That would certainly be a sub-optimal way to use wards. Again, there's zero reason for using wards against eg. foxes and boars, and wasting your invocations on that would definitely not be the best way to play the game. Conversely, there should be no trouble with casting it when you actually feel the need to.
So you want noobs to die because they will be too distracted during fight to click through menu to activate the ward just before KO?

When you leave your plot, you don't know if you're going in encounter a fox or a ganker. This system is to protect against random gankers, yes? The random part is the issue, no one expects to be knocked out when fighting animals, so they ward for the unexpected, namely gankers.

It doesn't save you from dying when you get knocked by something that wouldn't have killed you to begin with.
