Get Reno If You Don't Have Gen (Santa)
Reno Ichikawa is an Attacker with dual Shot and Ice Attributes. He delays enemy turns by freezing them and deals Additional Damage with Ice Crystals. If you don't have Gen (Santa), another Ice-based character, Reno is a strong pull worth targeting.
Reno Ichikawa (5-Star) GuideHis Signature Weapon Is Strong
Reno’s signature AR boosts Ice damage, Ultimate charge speed, and Crit Rate. Pairing it with him maximizes his effectiveness, though other ARs work well too.
AR-Boreas (5-Star AR)Reno Is Not Limited-Time
Reno Ichikawa is not a limited-time character. While pull rates are low, he appears in Pick Up banners, so you can acquire him outside his banner.
Reno Ichikawa Evaluation
Dual Physical and Elemental Attacker
Reno is a versatile fighter capable of dealing both Shot and Ice damage. Since he can reduce both Physical and Elemental Plates, he fits into almost any team composition as a flexible debuffer and DPS.
Boost Team DPS with Ice Crystals
Reno applies Ice Crystals to enemies using his Combat Skill. When allies attack an enemy marked with Ice Crystals, it triggers additional damage, allowing Reno to provide consistent off-field pressure by keeping this state active.
Delay Enemy Turns with Freeze
Reno's Ultimate inflicts the Freeze status. Freeze delays the enemy's turn, which is perfect for extending a Kaiju's "Core Exposed" state or preventing incoming attacks.
| Tip! | Additionally, Reno has a chance to recover SP after using his Combat Skill. Since more SP allows the party to use skills more frequently, his ability to sustain the team's energy is a massive advantage in longer battles. |
