Is it good to use survivor's wraps with barkshield and AA?

Each tick of bleed strips a charge off AA. Each tick of bleed strips a charge off Barkshield

My DC is 15k IL and I only play PVE
I have changed my Barkshield by negation. Elven Battle better?
 
I don't know if it compensates the increase of power of the gloves with the loss of AA and especially if the allies lose also power when reducing my time of AA.
I can wear the FBI gloves and avoid these problems but my intention is to share all the power that is possible and I do not know what the optimal combination is.
I play on PS4 and it is difficult to do tests.

I can wear the FBI gloves and avoid these problems but my intention is to share as much power as possible

I'm sorry but my English is very basic

a friend of mine told me that survivers wrasps don't consume barkshield stacks, but i can't confirm it myself since i use soulforged.

i don't know what you mean with your allies loosing power through reducing AA uptime, since their buff stays up until THEY take 4 hits and not until YOUR AA expires. and since you buff yourself through your pet, your own power also won't be reduced after the 4 hits. the only downside is that you loose some survivability.

about neg vs elven. it really depends on personal taste i guess. if you're dodging a lot then elven will be more suitable, but if you just stay in red and trust your defensive buffs, then negation will stack up pretty well. i'd just advice you to ask a friend or guildy if you can try their elven battle and then choose what you feel more comfortable with.

the survivors wraps are awful with barkshield. I was hoping they would build stacks of negation but I tried and they don't. I dont know about even battle. you could always use soulforged enchant, it's not effected at all by the wraps.

I tried to make the survivors wraps work, but found I would rather have barkshield in the higher level content. its a little less power but a lot more survivability, as a dead cleric is not sharing any power!!

hope that helps

Not a D.C., but I use the wraps, with that red shirt that gives power when you're wounded. After a bit of stat juggling to keep crit high, I haven't found any better gloves to wear, except relic and those only for fbi. Cheapo lesser soul though lol.

survivor's wraps take out your AC buff per tick. dont use it

Annointed army is buff based on allies nothing to do with the dc it gives 33.6% ( if am not wrong) to their base power.
They are responsible to keep the spheres. Also they have to lose all 4 spheres to lose the power buff and the mitigation.

IF a dc for example die after the cast the allies will still have the buff .
