maybe you should stop using your toy weapon and start playing HV with a normal weapons before you make comment on how easy stuff is.
I am not talking that this is easy for mages in fact i think the opposite. Absorb is ony useful for schoolgirls arenas to save spirit you will never see it proc against normal monsters because only crap monsters have magics attacks.
And you say that we get more mitigation, block, evade as a mage that's impossible to diminish the damage to an acceptable level when you get double crit by e1la for 100% of your life each time you cast an aoe.
Then we should cast debuffs but if you get a resist (that happens a lot) you will get raped on the second turn whatever the spell you want to cast.
I am not even talking about mana consumption who skyrocketed with the introduction of resists, increase in hp and mitigation.
