I guess I just never figured out the proper time to use it... and no situation has really called out to me as "Awareness Time." I'd rather have straight constant mitigation or ways to heal/bolster healing over preventing a chance at a crit. Then again, I don't raid or anything of that nature, so it might not be that big of a deal for me - and makes my five cross-skills easy to pick.
There is one time I've used it constantly, and that was in t11. The Sphere add... Or was it the square? Anyway, one of them Crits 100% of the time unless you have awareness. I think the AOE afterwards also crits as well.
There were a few other attacks in coil that could kill you in one hit if they critted, so awareness was just a safety net for those.
