I created a homebrew spell Energy Absorption, which was inspired by the Absorb Elements spell, except it is able to reduce damage from more damage types and help allies as well.  The spell is at 3rd level and is basically a mass version of Absorb Elements without the melee buff in exchange for the additional damage type reductions.

I was looking for feedback on the spell.  I did upload a YouTube video of the spell as well, which includes the breakdown of the spell, inspiration for it, the thought process behind its balancing, and situations that it could shine in.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCvSXNL_Ll8

Thanks!
