Abaddon is far better than ripmaw for PvE. The only benefit of ripmaw is the fast regen (which is really only beneficial if you're a low level twink who doesn't want to spend money on as many potions).
Abaddon gives hella armor (very beneficial for twink tanks), 15% more damange than ripmaw, a speed boost, and a nice AoE Arcane Ability.
I actually prefer to use Abaddon in PvE over Samael unless I'm running a hard elite.
