old Absorb: with max effiency (75%), 25 energy cost in TOTAL. Has duration but you can receive however many damage you can take as long as it lasts... You can just sit there and restore your shield and energy with siphon. Did I mention all this costs only 25 energy?

new/current Absorb: activatation+drain is minor... BUT absorbing damage = gg to your energy. Energy siphon is also turned off. Be prepared to use a lot more energy than 25 if you want this absorb to be useful. Only benefit is that you can activate whenever you want.
