Re: Aegis Thousand Year War - DMM Online Game
That's a given as majin maps revolve around demons which is more or less what he's better for. But I don't feel like discounting a unit completely simply because they are underused in majin map is a fair metric to assess them by - you consider Estelle to be top tier, but I recall her being virtually unused in Furfur clears
She's one of the 'more' used unit in amon. (as in top 10) In furfur, only those with buff uses her. (though a lot of people used buff to clear 15)
Vesper wise, she again becomes a top pick if you are using magical damage. otoh, there's no numbers yet.
On the other hand, if any unit is being used on a majin 15 (and not replaceable), it pretty much become top pick (top/high) since they are currently the hardest maps in game. Nothing else compare to that type of difficulty and actually 'requires' a specific black (and Saria)
Even ignoring cost, I just don't really agree with her placement as high if you consider Sybilla/Ingrid as low. Saying she's good in a situation where you need a mage+HA isn't accurate because she can't tank hits nearly as well as an HA. If you needed a mage+HA, you use Grace, who fills that role much better except when you need consistent and long term waveclear when skills are waiting on their cds, but that situation crops up in a very small minority of cases from what I've experienced.
Anya wise, I am not going to argue too hard far, since she's literally the bottom line separating high tier from low tier and is a free/event.
The reason behind why she's still on high is because she used to be the most accessible black units and does quite well for what she's intended for in terms of tanking/killing large mobs (not boss of course, as you've pointed out) Despite the obvious high cost and lack of range compared to melee supports.
I agree with Grace filling that role much better, which is why she's on the high tier as well. By the same argument I don't believe Ingrid/Sybilla is better than Grace even if they are better than Anya when mob density is low.
(working on vespar 11~15 atm, I might not reply for a while sorry KatsuraJun.
You brought some good arguments, though you have to note that the free/event blacks in general are worse than gacha units. (If there's +/-, then all event would get a - to their rank) Anya is a great event black, and is the ruler used for separating high/low tier.)
