Use your self buffs (Predator, Stalker, and Quills) unless your self combo buff (protection of the vale) has a higher rank. If ANY of those 3 spells has a higher rank than PotV, the 3 will be better than the 1. If all are equal level, use the combo buff to save a couple buff slots.

If you're using your self buffs, everything that anyone else casts which pertains to you will be blocked, ie Brell's, Spiritual Verve, etc.

Other than that I usually just go for Reliance instead of the Cleric Ward + Druid buff combo, as it saves a couple more buff slots.
