Illusion Connect Rikia Character Guide

Rikia is the next partner we’re going to check out! She’s a Spell character that could be considered the “budget” version of Ming and Elena (to an extent at least). Rikia will automatically dispel all the negative effects on the allies and cast an AoE spell that will damage all the enemies and inflict a crowd control effect (Stun or Silence).

She’s a great SR character that could easily be considered top tier if you want utility and damage, all in one, but don’t have the budget to max out one of the SSR characters that provide that. She is also low cost so she’ll make for a fine addition to any team if given the proper equipment.

In this article, you can find everything you need to know about Rikia, as well as which equipment would be best for her. So without further ado, let’s check it out!

The Best Equipment for Rikia

In my opinion, this is the best equipment for Rikia in Illusion Connect.

I personally prefer the Staff of Hope for the AoE damage, but if you have an extra Dragonhowl laying around, I believe that could also work great on her. That’s the choice if you want to go damage – now if you want to go utility only, then Nightmare Devourer could be a good option.

For armor, I believe it would not be wise to give her UR equipment since they could be used on other units and you’d get a lot more out of them. Therefore, I suggest either giving her some SR armor that you have maxed, such as All-Weather Suit (SR) or a normal SSR such as Lava Suit or Floral Cloak.

The best boost for Rikia I believe are Crimson Longboots, or the lower ones – Boots of Praise (SR) or Magic Cushion (SR). As an accessory, I suggest the Bagua Belt since it will have a chance to buff allies’ Energy on top of removing the debuffs from them. However, anything will work on her, so don’t worry if you don’t have that.
