    "Enhance Absorb Spells"

    Got a simple question about gear that says "Enhances absorb spells"

    Does this apply only to spells with ABsorb in the name or does this also enhance drain and aspir?

    Only the absorb line and I don't think it works with Abs-TP.

    It adds +10 seconds duration

    how's that work on partial resists now that they're possible? it would take an awful test to determine it, but if it's +10 seconds on a resist that would have only lasted 30 seconds, that's a significant boost. not that making a gimp cast slightly less gimp will make it particularly useful, but you might be able to keep an absorb around for one or two more swings.

    I actually have one more question.

    Do these effects stack? I mean, with the plastron set being full of this effect, it'd make sense for it to stack, but knowing SE you never know...

    Yes they stack, however they are pretty much worthless. You're much better off stacking Dark Skill gear so you don't get resisted (partial resist).

    Since this thread exists, has anyone tested out the enhance asborb on viscious mufflers? Chances are it works like Black/Onyx, but would be nice for confirmation.

    I haven't had a chance to but I plan on trying it later today.
