How effective is Arcane Ward + Armor of Shadows really?

It's basically "2*Level+3" HP every combat. I don't think it's terrible, but you're hardly invincible because of it. Effetively, it's one extra hit you can tank.

Am I missing something?
The main draw is that you can recharge the Arcane Ward for free out of combat by spamming Mage Armor (Armor of Shadows is Mage Armor at will right?).
