Re: Aegis Thousand Year War - DMM Online Game
It's worth it if you have another unit capable of handling dangerous threats. I would recommend it if you have someone like Dina, Dine, or Jelius. Another reason to get it is if you have Black-rarity Iris. Save a lot of gold because it's 300k gold to awaken her, and then 300k gold again to get her the AW skill. It's not fun when doing it for multiple Black-rarity units!
I have Anya with her AW skill, but I use it infrequently. It's a great skill, but I'll only activate it if I'm in a tight spot and it's necessary for me to use it. To me, either of her skills must be used decisively and must be used to determine a good result. She's a really great unit post-awakening because of the ability to attack both enemies she block so I found that I didn't need to use her skill often.

Anya isn't tanky early on because of the boss enemy power creep. She will need a lot of levels after awakening just to have better stats. It's probably recommended to let her consume a Spirit Happy, Spirit Joy, or Black Armors, if you want to give her levels. I find her stats to be a lot better after getting her to AW74.
