Firstly, reducing Absorbing Man's strength and health would be a prudent initial step. Currently, encountering Absorbing Man in a single combo or even when he attacks a player's block can result in a loss of up to 70% health for a maxed 6* ascended character. I also suggest reducing his strength by half and his overall health by 10 - 20%. A reference point for this adjustment could be the balance seen in act 8.
Regarding the nodes, I strongly recommend the removal of the Unstoppable node (Buff Toggle (Unstoppable) 3). Its combination with his unblockable attacks creates a particularly challenging scenario that can often feel insurmountable. Additionally, the Degeneration node (Brute Force) could be adjusted or removed. if only adjusted, modifying it to cause 30% health loss over 30 seconds vs 100% would ensure that a single slip-up doesn't inevitably result in the end of the fight for a player.
Implementing these changes will provide players with a fair chance in this event. As an avid fan of the game, I have found that despite my growing skills and enjoyment, there are obstacles that seem almost insurmountable without significant financial investment. These proposed adjustments would greatly and positively affect my gameplay experience, encouraging me to continue engaging with and supporting the game financially when necessary. However, as it stands, I am hesitant about both playing and spending.
Also, if you have suggestions on this fight, I’d love to hear them.

It’s obvious that you lack the intellect to actually read the thread. Is Necro not one of the most challenging modes of the game? Did I not just express that I’ve beaten necro and enjoyed its challenges? Goofy comment
Look him up on YouTube
The first Variant was a great challenge for deep rosters but people complained and they became cakewalks after.
It's unbearable for them because the ones complaining the loudest just want rewards handed to them. Even though they exist, they gauge content on if it costs them revives or not. If it does, nerf it. If it doesn't, it's fine.
Unless there's something completely wrong with this fight like as in a bug, it shouldn't be nerfed.
I can respect that viewpoint. I also wasn’t aware of all the nerfing that has happened. I started this game like 8 or 9 years ago then stopped playing for a few years before jumping back in last year. So I came in when things were already nerfed I’m assuming
I, however, still believe there is room for some tweaking.. & I can only speak for myself and what I deem as unbearable. I’m definitely not a player that wants things handed to him & im def not opposed to using revives. For my necro run, it took me a while to gather enough revives and units to be confident to tackle it and it still took me a couple days because I would take breaks in between, but I ran thru a S TON of revives and healths and then units. It’s just something about THIS challenge that’s got me effed up lol I’ve ultimately decided it’s not worth the frustration so I’m gonna move on to exploring necro.
