Using a stance with leader of the pack trait also affects spirits. Does this count as an ally?

[MeTx.6712]

When the Leader of the Pack trait is used, every stance get a "Number of allied targets: 5". If I have 2 or 3 spirits up, and I use it, do they take the first 3 spots? What about necro minions and engi turrets as well?

 

I do a lot of fractals, so this is very important for me to know.

I assume that buffs have the same priority list.

Your stances will prioritize other players over your pet(s), and will prioritize party members (even in squads) over non party members. So your spirits and your pet shouldn’t take up one of the buffs.

Yeah, players are prioritized over AI. For rangers it's also pets before other AI. So buffs intended for party members will not be wasted on AI instead.
