Firstly, can a Mo/W use Warrior runes ? If so, would a rune of Superior Absorption be any good on a 55 Monk/Warrior ?

Thanks

No, you can only use runes from your primary profession, unfortunately.

And everyone can use runes of vigor.

Yep.

Personally, I think it's horseshit that absorption runes can't be used by everyone. It's not like Warriors have the corner market on not wanting to take damage.

Besides vigor, everyone but the warrior only has access to runes associated with their abilities. In the beginning, warriors also had access to absorption runes and fury runes. I guess they did away with fury, but absorption is still there. I see no reason why only warriors should have the option of putting an absorption rune on their character. What you are saying is ridiculous, sarcasm or no - yeah, that would be broken. However, giving absorption to everyone really would make little difference overall - if you have shit for armor, an extra hit point or 3 per hit will make little difference. Also, it's not like they are cheap to begin with.

The reason for warriors having a superior ab rune is based on the style of fighting a warrior does he is a hand to hand combaten where the rest are based on range fighting.
