In regards to MP regeneration with Blood Price, JayCommon is incorrect - defensive cooldowns do not reduce the amount of MP absorbed.

With this in mind, when I pull a big pack, I will usually use Blood Price and Shadowskin together. You can't beat flat damage reduction. As Blood Price is close to falling off, I will use a Dark Arted Dark Dance for the evasion as well as a Dark Arted Dark Passenger for the Blind. In my opinion, this is the best cooldown combo for trash and since Blood Price is not up anymore, you aren't losing out on any MP.
