- Khuri or Claire

you can use the traps without raising the unit tho. The difference between an awakened level 90 ricola trap and a level 1 non awakened , non cc-ed ricola trap is 700 damage (which on a boss is meaningless) and 1 second stun. Which sure , it is an improvement (from 2.5 seconds to 3.5 seconds) , but it's hardly worth the amount of silvers and experience you have to put in a bad unit

Ricola is actually not a bad unit. Merely niche. Useful niche(s) at that (both stall and stealth, with bad weather immunity as a cherry on the top), but niche still.

The thing with ricola is that she's a double (or triple if you want to include her aw passive niche) niche character. For 1 , she's a ranger which is already a niche , because rangers are basicly worse archers with traps and weather imunity. From that point of view , she's worse at her niche then even fuuka (a whole rarity lower) , which gains more traps by awakening.
On top of that she has a very niche passive ability in priority ranged. IMO all passives that change priorities are not that great.....especially on a character like ricola with no steroid incorporated. Say she targets a tankier ranged unit (like a lich or something) and at the same time , you have gargoyles flying over you. Because she can't kill the ranged unit fast enough , shhe will let the flying units escape. At least bashira has an attack multiplier that can help her change targets by bursting tankier units.
On top of that she has a niche skill (and saw) : her skill gives her stealth. That's all fine and dandy but stealth overall is not some grandbreaking skill. Sure , it can help you in some situations , but most of the times , a regular attack steroid is better. And her saw reduces damage for improving the lenght of the skill....Not that great either.
So tell me now , how many times you will get a map that will require the triple niche offered by ricola ?
Because of that , id honestly take fuuka over ricola , and as i said fuuka is a gold. For 1 she has a better , more general use skill (double shot) and a better saw. While ricola's skill may be useful on some maps because of her stealth mechanic , fuuka is better on most other maps because she has straight up dps. Her saw also provides some cc in the form of 50% slow.
On top of that , she also has a better AW passive then ricola , in the sense that she increases the number of traps avaible rather then giving priority ranged (which is a pretty crappy passive IMO) , which , as i said , it makes fuuka better at the ranger niche then ricola.
As for our debate about claire vs ricola , there is no way you're telling me that you think ricola is better then claire...
