Rikoris

Analysis

Overview

Rikoris is a 3★ Light Warrior who can Specialty Change into Captain Rikoris. Rikoris is valuable because he serves no fewer than three important utility roles in combat:

1. He is a reliable Defense Breaker.
2. He can reduce all allies' cooldowns.
3. He can dispel buffs from all enemies at once.

His DPS is very low and he isn't terribly durable, but his grab-bag of versatile support abilities can make him a useful addition to many parties.

Specialty Changing into Captain Rikoris doesn't change Rikoris' position in the party very much. He becomes a little more durable and a little more accurate. He gains a damage buff against Dark-element foes and a passive aura that makes his allies more accurate. His S3 gains a Stun and the ability to heal Rikoris. However, all of these benefits are secondary to the utility that Rikoris was already bringing to the team.

Building Rikoris

Rikoris can be built almost exactly the same as Captain Rikoris. (See our page on Captain Rikoris for more details.) Since his role doesn't change at all between his two versions, there's not much difference when it comes to building them either.

That being said, do remember that Captain Rikoris has a lot more durability and team support in the form of auras and passive benefits, however. It takes more work to keep Rikoris alive than Captain Rikoris. You may need to prioritize more HP and Def stats on his gear, or perhaps run him with a stronger tank and/or healer than you would need to after promotion--I mean Specialty Change.
