I am very conflicted about whether or not adding awakenings to so many items is beneficial or not. The past season, STS has tried to make the game more friendly to F2P players. All the items that can be awakened undermines these efforts as OP awakenings are something that alienates majority of AL from having maxed or even near to maxed stats.

On the other hand, it completely ruins twink gameplay, forcing them to either quit or come to end game, which is a huge step in the right direction.

A possible solution to have the best of both is to add awakening to only twink items.
