The very first Illusion Connect UR character we will be creating a guide for is Silhouette – Hersey. Silhouette – Hersey is, long story short, two characters in one. You have both Hersey and Lisa into one character, and it’s a truly magnificent reference if you love original Hersey’s backstory.
Silhouette – Hersey is a powerful Summon unit that can wreak havoc if paired up with the right teammates. This unit is also canon to the lore, so being a UR character makes it a must-have if you’re like me and love collecting every unit.
In this article, you can find everything you need to know about Silhouette – Hersey, as well as which equipment would be best for them. So without further ado, let’s check it out!

The Best Equipment for Silhouette – Hersey
| Weapon | Armor | Boots | Accessory |
 |  |  |  |
In my opinion, this is the best equipment for Silhouette – Hersey in Illusion Connect. Of course, you want everything you can get your hands on that grants ATK and increases the summoned units’ damage.
I would recommend using Fairy Tale Doll, Bonecrusher, or even Dream Chaser as a weapon since it grants a lot of ATK and that’s exactly what you need on this unit.
For the armor, you can go for Scarlet Cuirass, since it’s a great piece of equipment. The boots should be either Scarlet Warboots or Hello Mousepad (UR), and the best accessory is probably the Maharaj’s Vessel (UR) or Lord Autumn’s Piece (UR). As an SSR option, you can go for Swaying Wine Glass or Hero’s Scarf (to have a chance to increase an ally’s DMG).

Up until this story, it was almost unclear if Hersey was a “him” or a “her”. Although the main story points at Hersey being a “him”, this makes it very clear that indeed it is like that. However, in the description of the normal SSR Hersey, the term “her” is used.
