Your numbers sound odd. 15%(not flat value, %) fire absorb equates to about 30% resist(you absorb 15% of the damage, and it heals you, thereby negating 15% of the remaining damage). So if you had some elemental resist charms, you could have max resistance(75-95%, depending on other stuff), and an additional 15% absorption to boot. You won't be immune, but you'd be taking pithy damage(unless the initial damage is very great, like several tens of thousands, due to bug+lucky roll of items for monster)
