Overview

Riki is a 27-year-old contract sniper in the Future. Complete Story Beat 033 to recruit her and open her relationship actions at the TD Barracks. Her personal route includes ten automatic encounters across several Future locations, three heart-to-hearts, two optional dates, Archery Focus training, and Range Estimation.
This guide gives the route order, locations, requirements and highest-point replies without retelling the personal revelations or concluding outcomes.

Quick Stats

Attribute Value
Age / era / alignment 27 / Future / Neutral
Favorite relationship bonuses Perception 80; Rogue 80; Ability 80
Special relationship skill Archery Focus, doubles her adjusted affection base when learned
Ordinary gift None configured
Recruitment Story Beat 033; $20,000; Recharge Station, 6 PM–midnight
Relationship location TD Barracks, all day, after recruitment
Talk 15 minutes; 1 base; three positive uses daily
Personal route unlock Story Beat 034 complete; Acknowledged
Listed relationship rewards are base values. Favorite stats add bonuses when their thresholds are met, and the special relationship skill doubles the adjusted base before the shared random roll. Equipment, buffs and alignment can further change the final reward. Raising affection does not replace quest flags or earlier heart-to-hearts.

Recruitment and Schedule

Location Hours Requirement / content
Synthetic Beings Recharge Station 6 PM–midnight daily After Story Beat 032, before 033; story appearance, no ordinary relationship actions
TD Barracks All day, every day After Story Beat 033; Talk, training, Range Estimation, H2Hs and date actions
After Story Beat 032, carry $20,000 and visit the Recharge Station, 6 PM–midnight, for Story Beat 033. Its completion deducts $20,000, advances 30 minutes, recruits Riki for the army, and opens her Barracks relationship schedule.
The scene gives 10 fixed Riki base. For her highest choice reward, use Flirty at the price decision (+2 Riki) and Caring at the terms decision (+3 Riki), giving 15 Riki base total. Other price replies reward Ghost instead. The terms Funny/Flirty replies give 2 Riki each.
Next complete Story Beat 034 at TD Operations Center, available all day after recruitment. It advances 60 minutes, gives 5 fixed Riki base, and its Confident strategy reply adds 2 Riki, for 7. This main-story completion unlocks the first personal encounter. Main-story progression and ordinary affection are separate conditions.

Suggested Progression

  1. Recruit Riki in Story Beat 033, then visit TD Barracks for ordinary Talk. Complete 034 at Operations Center.
  2. At Acknowledged, visit Barracks for Twenty Empty Beds. At Known, go to TD Armory for The Armory Clause.
  3. Learn Archery Focus from Known with Perception 15. At Acquaintance, claim Range Estimation after Armory Clause, and visit Transit Nexus Fringe for Shared Sightline.
  4. At Friend, follow A Clean Target at Parking Complex → Bad Coordinates at Barracks → Contract Maintenance at Operations Center. After Bad Coordinates, complete The Last Report H2H from the Barracks action menu.
  5. At Close Friend, complete The Counteroffer at Barracks; then A Clean Exit H2H becomes available after The Last Report. Continue No Invoice at Barracks → The Renewal Window at Operations Center.
  6. At Crush, complete No Contract for This after A Clean Exit and The Renewal Window. Return to Barracks for Chosen Position, the final personal encounter.
  7. The two optional dates can be completed independently from their Friend / Close Friend unlocks. They do not replace the personal encounters or H2H prerequisites.

Talk and Training

Action Requirements at Barracks Cost Reward / repetition
Talk to Riki Stranger; recruited 15 minutes 1 base; three positive talks daily
Archery Focus Known; Perception 15; skill not learned 160 minutes; $250; Energy −40; Calm −35 Learns Archery Focus; 15 base affection, disappears once learned
Range Estimation Acquaintance; The Armory Clause complete 45 minutes; Energy −15; Calm −10 Perception +1 and 8 direct affection; once
Three positive talks take 45 minutes for 3 base, before relationship bonuses. Over-limit Talk can cause escalating annoyance, up to −5 affection. Riki has no ordinary gift action.
Archery Focus training awards its listed 15 base through the shared relationship calculation after learning the skill; its nominal one-per-day metadata does not make it repeatable once learned. Range Estimation gives 8 direct points, without multiplying those eight as base. It does not teach a second skill.

Ten Automatic Personal Encounters

These complete once and form a strict chain. Their current entry windows are all day; visit the listed location after meeting both the stage and preceding completion requirements. The locations differ from the older all-Barracks summary.
Order Encounter Actual location Minimum stage Completion gate Best reply type Best Riki base
1 Twenty Empty Beds Barracks Acknowledged Story Beat 034 complete Caring or Flirty 6 fixed + 3 choice = 9
2 The Armory Clause Armory Known Twenty Empty Beds complete Flirty 7 fixed + 4 choice = 11
3 Shared Sightline Hyperloop Transit Nexus Acquaintance The Armory Clause complete Caring or Flirty 8 fixed + 4 choice = 12
4 A Clean Target Multi-Level Automated Parking Complex Friend Shared Sightline complete Flirty 9 fixed + 5 choice = 14
5 Bad Coordinates Barracks Friend A Clean Target complete Caring or Flirty 10 fixed + 5 choice = 15
6 Contract Maintenance Operations Center Friend Bad Coordinates complete Caring or Flirty 10 fixed + 5 choice = 15
7 The Counteroffer Barracks Close Friend Contract Maintenance complete Caring or Flirty 12 fixed + 6 choice = 18
8 No Invoice Barracks Close Friend The Counteroffer complete Caring or Flirty 12 fixed + 6 choice = 18
9 The Renewal Window Operations Center Close Friend No Invoice complete Caring or Flirty 15 fixed + 7 choice = 22
10 Chosen Position Barracks Crush The Renewal Window complete; No Contract for This H2H complete Flirty 18 fixed + 9 choice = 27


Shared Sightline and No Invoice also give 2 fixed Artemis base each; Bad Coordinates gives 2 fixed Ghost base. Their Riki totals above include her fixed reward plus her best reply, rather than those other NPC rewards. These encounters configure no additional action time, money, Energy, Calm, player Erotic XP or NPC intimacy XP cost/reward.
There is no need to finish every H2H before continuing ordinary personal encounters. The explicit exception is Chosen Position, which requires No Contract for This complete; that H2H has its own preceding gates.

Three Heart-to-Hearts

Start all three through Riki's TD Barracks action menu, available all day after recruitment. Background or dialogue references to other locations do not move the action entry.
H2H Requirements Cost Best ordinary / special base
The Last Report Friend; Bad Coordinates complete 75 minutes; Energy −15; Calm −10 83 / 86 with Empathy
A Clean Exit Close Friend; The Last Report H2H and The Counteroffer complete 90 minutes; Energy −20; Calm −10 93 / 95 with Reading People
No Contract for This Crush; A Clean Exit H2H and The Renewal Window complete 90 minutes; Energy −20; Calm +10 116 / 118 with Empathy
All are one-time, five-round conversations. The three best ordinary sequences give 292 base total; taking all eligible special replies gives 299. Learned Romantic adds 25 final affection at each H2H completion, separately from the Romantic relationship stage. No player Erotic XP or NPC intimacy XP reward is configured for these H2Hs, including the final kissing conversation.
Use the best ordinary replies below. Where replies tie, the listed reply is one of the equally rewarding choices.

The Last Report

Round Highest base-point choice Base points
1 You asked me to stay. I am staying. 13
2 The employer made doubt look like unprofessionalism. 14
3 Mara still changes the shots you choose not to take. 17
4 Another heartbeat can also tell you when to stop. 19
5 Keep the truth. Leave the blame here. 20


A Clean Exit

Round Highest base-point choice Base points
1 I would never ask you to surrender the map. 15
2 I want your presence, not your captivity. 17
3 I would miss you. I would still let you choose. 19
4 The route stays open. 20
5 Remain for tonight. Tomorrow can ask again. 22


No Contract for This

Round Highest base-point choice Base points
1 I hoped your preferred place was here. 19
2 Then let this moment belong only to us. 21
3 Come closer and choose it with me. 24
4 No revision. Kiss me. 25
5 Kiss her again, just as freely. 27


Heart-to-heart choice points accumulate and use the shared relationship calculation at completion. The listed points are base values, not guaranteed final affection gains.

Optional special replies

H2H / round Gate Reply Base / improvement
The Last Report, 2 Learned Empathy You still hear her warning every time coordinates look too clean. 17; +3 over best ordinary
A Clean Exit, 2 Learned Reading People The counteroffer frightens you because either choice now costs someone you value. 19; +2
No Contract for This, 2 Learned Empathy You want one decision that cannot be mistaken for an assignment. 23; +2
These unlock the following authored dialogue variant. The skills are optional for completing each H2H and do not bypass its entry prerequisites.

Two Optional Dates

Both dates are selected from Riki at TD Barracks, rather than by searching for her portrait at the outing destination.
Date Entry Cost Best base
Ammunition and Dinner, Neon Bazaar outing Friend; 4–10 PM 120 minutes; $80; Energy −30; Calm +5 22
Open Sightline, Skygarden outing Close Friend; 8 AM–4 PM 120 minutes; $100; Energy −30; Calm +10 26
Each completes once, with no added personal-plot/H2H, paid or supporter gate. Choose Caring or Flirty at all three decisions:
  • Ammunition and Dinner: 4 + 5 + 5 choices + 8 fixed = 22 base.
  • Open Sightline: 5 + 5 + 6 choices + 10 fixed = 26 base.
No player Erotic XP or NPC intimacy XP reward is configured. Date completion is separate from the ten-encounter chain.

Later Shared Story Rewards

Riki receives additional ordinary affection during the released main story. These are shared story beats rather than new Barracks actions; the table gives her rewards without retelling their outcomes.
Story beat Location / prerequisites Riki reward
072 TD Aimy Control; 071 and Ghost's ruins quest complete 6 fixed base; Caring first reply adds 3, best 9
073 TD Operations Center; 072 complete 4 fixed base, no Riki choice bonus
074 TD Operations Center; 073 complete 3 fixed base; Caring first reply adds 2, best 5
These are available all day when their story prerequisites are met. They are not additional prerequisites for Riki's personal route, which begins after 034. This walkthrough covers the currently released story through 085.

Completion and Troubleshooting

  • Riki visible but no actions: her Recharge Station appearance before recruitment has no relationship actions. Complete 033 and use TD Barracks.
  • Recruitment will not trigger: finish 032, carry $20,000, and visit the Recharge Station, 6 PM–midnight.
  • First personal encounter missing: finish 034, reach Acknowledged, and visit Barracks.
  • Later encounter missing: check its actual location, minimum stage and preceding encounter in the route table; they are not all at Barracks.
  • Range Estimation missing: check Acquaintance, Armory Clause complete, and whether its one-time reward is already claimed.
  • Archery Focus missing: check Known and Perception 15; it disappears once learned.
  • The Last Report missing: finish Bad Coordinates and reach Friend.
  • A Clean Exit missing: finish The Last Report H2H and The Counteroffer, then reach Close Friend.
  • No Contract for This missing: finish A Clean Exit H2H and The Renewal Window, then reach Crush.
  • Chosen Position missing: finish No Contract for This, then return to Barracks at Crush.
  • Date missing: select it from Barracks within its own window; it disappears after completion.
Riki has no current apartment visit, private movie action, Kupie selection, venue invitation, worker recruitment, pregnancy route or NPC intimacy reward-image files. Her completed personal route does not require those systems.

Shared Armory Event

After Story Beat34 and Artemis's Two Hands, One Weapon, visit the Armory,8 AM–6 PM, with Artemis Acquaintance+ for Two Sets of Eyes. This one-time scene givesRiki3 completion plus2 Caring/Funny=5 base, or4 with Flirty. Its registration adds no Riki affection gate. Artemis receives her own separate rewards.
