Anime Expeditions Scissor (Riyo) Build Guide

Build Scissor, also searched as Riyo, around her same-target damage ramp, boss uptime, sensible traits, gear, and target-safe placement.

Scissor is a Terra · Physical Legendary beginner DPS commonly searched as Riyo. Each consecutive normal hit on the same enemy adds 5% Damage, up to 20%. The practical ramp is lost when attacks switch targets, so durable enemies and clean targeting matter more than a short burst of card damage.

Banner availability rotates. Confirm Scissor in the current Rates panel before spending; anime-name searches do not guarantee the unit is featured.

Place Scissor where a boss stays in range after smaller enemies are cleared. Control from Ice Queen can extend the attack window, while a suitable support can improve the whole damage cluster. Use unit placement to prevent unnecessary target switching.

Common questions

Are Scissor and Riyo the same search target?

Yes. Scissor is the game-facing name used here; Riyo is the common anime-name alias players use in searches.

Does the bonus survive a target switch?

Build decisions should assume the practical ramp restarts when normal attacks move to another enemy. Test any changed tooltip after an update.

What are Scissor’s exact DMG, SPA, and Range?

A complete normalized chain is not publicly verified. Follow the unit stats capture protocol rather than combining different levels and traits.
