Breaker of WillsAlways Active
Absorbing Man’s Omni-Morph Forms last 10 - 40% longer.
When Absorbing Man consumes Morph Charges, he gains a non-stacking Regeneration Passive, healing 10 - 30% of his missing Health over 12 seconds. As a Defender, this effect also triggers whenever Absorbing Man enters or refreshes any Form.
Personal Regeneration effects pause for 3 seconds when Absorbing Man is struck with True Damage and are removed when a form is deactivated early.
Abilities
Molecular Duplication - Always Active
A fluid molecular structure grants Absorbing Man 20% Crit Resistance and Immunity to Armor Break and Armor Shattered Debuffs, but reduces his
by 20% flat.
Absorbing Man is no stranger to brawling with beings of otherworldly resilience. He reduces the duration of his Opponent’s Indestructible, Immortality, Unstoppable, and Unblockable Buffs by 90%.
Omni-Morph Forms
Absorbing Man’s Special Attacks transform him into powerful altered Forms. He can only be in one Form at a time, and Form changes cannot fail due to Ability Accuracy Modification.
Absorbing Man starts each fight in his Black Uru Form by default, but can use the Pre-Fight Menu to change this default, which persists until changed again.
Being struck by a Heavy Attack while recovering from a Special Attack deactivates the current Form, which cannot be deactivated again in this way for 20 seconds.
Whenever a Buff ends on the Opponent or Absorbing Man is Immune to a Debuff, the current Form pauses for 3 seconds.
Interrupting an Opponent's Basic Attack with a Light Attack pauses the current Form for 6 seconds and inflicts a 397.06 potency
Passive for 15 seconds. Max Stacks: 5.
Refined Forms
If Absorbing Man would enter a Form that is already active, he instead Refines the Form, refreshing its duration and granting additional benefits.
Personal bursts of damage benefit from 300% of Absorbing Man's Critical Damage Multiplier when he lands a Critical Hit and cannot have their Ability Accuracy modified.
Special Attacks are
.
Blocking a Hit reduces the Opponent’s Ability Power Rate by 72% until Absorbing Man stops blocking. The Power denied is transferred to Absorbing Man.
Morph Charges
When Absorbing Man refreshes or changes Forms, he gains Morph Charges equal to the remaining percentage of his previous Form’s base duration. Max: 600.
Whenever Absorbing Man is Immune to an Armor Break or Armor Shattered Debuff, he gains 90 Morph Charges.
Performing a Medium, Light, Medium Combo with at least 150 Morph Charges, or activating a Special Attack at max charges, consumes all charges to Refine the current Form and inflict one 30 second
Passive with 2,250 potency for every 150 charges consumed.
Heavy Attacks
This attack gains 1,840.91 Critical Rating if the Opponent is Stunned as the first hit lands.
This attack instead gains 20,250 Critical Rating if the Opponent is not Stunned as the first hit lands.
Activating a Special Attack after the first hit lands applies this bonus Critical Rating to the entire Special and grants 30 Morph Charges.

Special Attack 2
On activation, enter Magma Form for 18 seconds, granting the following benefits:
Gain Immunity to all Incinerate, Coldsnap, and Frostbite effects and +9,000 Energy Resistance.
All attacks deal Energy Damage instead of Physical, as well as a burst of 793 Energy Damage.
Refined: Contact with the Opponent inflicts an Incinerate Passive, dealing 1,387.75 Energy Damage over 1 second.
Special Attack 3
Gain an indefinite Cruelty Passive, increasing Critical Damage Rating by 118.42. If a Refined Form is already active, gain a second Cruelty Passive. Max Stacks: 5.
