User blog comment:YurdleTheTurtle/Anivia Masteries: Offense or Utility?/@comment-4080931-20120223060657

I like going into Utility enough to get the buff duration increase, then balancing the rest of the points between Offense and Defense (making sure to get the Health Regen, Armor and Magic Resist, and early AP masteries). The health regen doesn't sound like much, but when you think about it, that's 3 health per 5 seconds, an extra 36 health regenerated every 60 seconds, which is almost as much as the Flat Health mastery (around 40 flat health). I wouldn't hate on ability power either, she can get a 230+2.0 AP magic damage combo on an enemy at level 2 with just two spells and 130 mana. This isn't an expert opinion, but rather a justification for why I go this route.
