He only casts ice comet once, and I got killed. I thought this skill suppose to completely absorb any spell 3 times...</DIV>

<DIV>perhaps it hit you for 32k damage? and your stone def was only able to absorb the first 18k worth of damage.</DIV>

This skill is definitely bugged. It shows "your stoneskin absorbed xxx point of damage.", but you still take the damage. the number xxx is higher than the damage you actually take because when it absorbs damage it doesnt count your mitigation.
