I know for a fact the wizard epic (Staff of the Four) was all about some absorbing spell damage. It says nothing about absorbing spell damage, as some of the other runes do, and I know spells exist that specifically absorb spell damage, but those I believe stacked with BoF.
Yep, and the wizard epic was essentially a component free steelskin/diamondskin. That's why it was nice in classic zones in conjunction with a manastone. This is also why enchanters, wizards, necros, etc generally always kept a skin/rune up for PVP or encounters with AE direct damage effects (like TOV, which you mentioned).
