Re: (Nutaku) Milenium War Aigis (English Version)
only have themis. 2 questions
can princesses be awakened?
how "good" is she anyways? she has a def up skill and her affection increases health. basically she is a duelist, but has skills to tank. wouldn't sending out a HA be more productive? (unless there are future maps that send out strong, but few HA enemies)
Princesses can only be awakened (no CC).
Themis is good, as are most princesses, most teams will at some point, need at least one as thy ignore armor. In the current game they are the only thing that is melee that does. Compared to other princesses some might see her as the weakest, and rarity/stat wise this is true. But she is the most cost effective of them. Skill wise, def skills are often looked down upon, but there are always maps that can make use of this skill.
If she's all you got, by all means level her and use her. She makes some maps very easy. (High armor maps specifically).
As to an HA being more effective. That's really a double question as an HA blocks 3 and a Princess blocks one. Is she killing units fast enough that the droves don't matter, then its obvious the princess is better. If you need to hold the line, an HA will be better. One thing people do often overlook with the HA's (all of em black and under, haven't gotten black so no testing), they tend to kill at a turtles pace, which can lead to being overrun anyways. Sometimes they can do whats needed but if they are under leveled you'll only be delaying the inevitable, and another duelist (like a princess) may have prevented it. Plenty of wolf maps tend to run by HA's, as they come out fast and in numbers (few dailies are good map examples).
You can awaken them. Themis doesn't seem very good. Even though she is a princess, I would rather use witches/mages + high armor unit/healers.
This is not always easy to accomplish due to cost, and or unit restrictions for a given map. Phalanx 2 for example has a low amount of units that can be used for the map, so it's not easy to get mages/witches out to kill them. A princess is much better suited for such maps. I can do it with 2 units and clear the map.
