The gameplay formula for RISK is relatively simple but can offer some complex challenges along the way in both singleplayer and multiplayer modes. Containing a variety of campaigns with variations in the map layout, from simplified versions to even having maps based centuries in the future. It has a fresh, more modernized take but still remains true to its roots, offering both casual and competitive experiences — depending on the player’s prefere

Physical Trailblazer and Dan Heng are the standouts in D-Tier. Their status as free characters that the player receives by default means that they must be relatively weak for balancing purposes. However, they're still solid enough to remain usable, in contrast to some of their D-Tier counterparts. They both have more viable counterparts, but the player is incentivized to invest in the Trailblazer in particular, since their levels will carry o

For Boothill, the build might be considered rather more complicated compared to Robin, since he combines a traditional DPS build, which typically involves Crit Rate, Crit DMG, and ATK%, with Break Effect. Given this, players have more stats to pay attention to, with Break Effect taking the most priority among main stats or set effect bonuses. Boothill will benefit from combining sets that provide Break Effect, such as Thief of Shooting Meteor and Watchmaker, Master of Dream Machinations. There isn't much flexibility in this regard, except for considering Champion of Streetwise Boxing as a 2-piece instead. For Planar Ornaments, he is also not as versatile as Robin, though this is expected from DPS characters generally. He can best make use of Rutilant Arena to increase his Basic ATK DMG even further. Considering that Boothill doesn't gain Crit Stats through his traces, reaching a 70% Crit Rate threshold can further increase the difficulty of min-maxing this character. Overall, however, if most attention is put on Break Effect through main stats or even light cone options, sub-stat min-maxing can be made a little eas

Jade is designed similarly to standard DPS characters, prioritizing Crit Rate, Crit DMG, Speed and ATK, to maximize her effectiveness. Despite this, players can build her efficiently without overly focusing on Crit DMG since her Talent allows her to stack it naturally. Instead, maintaining a balanced distribution of the other stats is key to optimizing her performa

Dr. Ratio is a blessing; he was gifted to players for free in a limited time event that served as somewhat of an in-joke with the character himself, and the good doctor has only grown more relevant since. He provides follow-up attacks very reliably, which makes him a must have for any team that revolves around the mechanic. Topaz follows suit, thanks to the help of her trusty partner Numby. Numby essentially rotates follow-up attacks throughout the battlefield, guaranteeing a cycle where Topaz can apply heavy damage to one target before cycling to the n

For the Planar Ornaments, performance between different sets is a bit more minimal, and players should essentially decide on which one to equip based on their sub-stats. Duran Dynasty of Running Wolves and Inert Salsotto generally are a bit more fitting for Jade for each occasion, on the other hand Sigonia the Unclaimed Desolation and Izumo Gensei and Takama Divine Realm depend more on team composition, while being particularly useful in Pure Fiction, as opposed to other cont

In terms of builds, Robin and Boothill differ significantly due to their distinct roles, even though their Path is the same. Interestingly enough, Robin, while being a support-oriented character, can make better use of sets like Champion of Streetwise Boxing as a 4-piece or combined with relics that have ATK bonuses on their 2-piece bonus, such as Musketeer of Wild Wheat or Prisoner in Deep Confinement. She also has quite some versatility when it comes to choosing the right Planar Ornament set, with Fleet of the Ageless being the top choice as of now, though Space Sealing Station or Sprightly Vonwacq can also work quite well. As her only trace that scales with a stat is Ultimate, scaling with ATK specifically, Robin is relatively easy to build in terms of min-maxing the stats, as she's not highly reliant on other stats at all. Generally speaking, she can make use of Energy Regeneration rate for her Rope Link, and players may consider increasing her speed to 120 (which isn't an entirely difficult thing to do considering her base Speed and tsaritsa lore Speed traces). Players have an easy time increasing her ATK as high as possible while aiming for survivability-oriented stats like HP or DEF for the r

Considering that Jade's own kit comes with some self buffs, for example being able to increase her own Crit DMG, building Jade is not as difficult as some other characters, despite her still required to be built similar to many DPS characters while requiring to balance certain stats.
