. "Absorb, also known as Eater, Absorbs, and absb, is a recurring ability throughout the entire series, and refers to often to the ability of absorbing elemental attacks and converting the damage to HP recovery. The following are not named in any game, and thus the names are taken from the equipment description. Although the ability was not given a name until Final Fantasy X, it has been a predominant ability and a rather crucial ability throughout the series, especially against enemies and bosses of particular elements that can only use attacks of that element, and by using an Absorb ability against said enemies and bosses, renders them completely harmless."@en . . . . . . . .
