I find absorb useful still, mostly because of the absurd amounts of damage some of the magic skills can do on BT (*cough* Toddlerguro *cough*)

Well im still about 10% damage short to be able to play on bt so i dont know there, but from my experience up to nintendo it isnt worth it, so it really depends on how fast you can kill at the difficulty you are playing at or if you have ap to put on everything ^^.
If I get an extra channeling (almost non-existent now thanks to the new channeling rules) I'll usually use absorb.

I don't find the trio hard, it's just getting past the initial 99 rounds on higher difficulties that is annoying.
That's how I felt prior to trying it on Hell. Now the final round is a bitch.
