Yes the longer it lasts, the more damage you absorb and deal, which is the same logic/method as the old absorb. Since there is an energy drain even if they fixed it, you should just use it as soon as possible instead of making it last minutes and draining all your energy for one blast.

What I'm saying is: For long absorb, the old absorb would be better. For short absorb, the new one is better.
