Are you still playing this game? KH3 is already out! Well, anyway...

This Riku event is nice, but it's meant to be limited. It costs 50 AP each time you run the quest, so you can only do about 3-4 runs at a time (assuming you wait a few minutes for the remaining 2 AP to regenerate). It should be noted that the skill medals and the Riku+Moogle medals can only be dropped by the Adventurer, and only at a low rate. On top of that, the Adventurer is a rare spawn. As a result, it's better to equip all of your rare enemy perks: if you make him show up, you at least have a chance of getting something, but you have a 0% chance if he doesn't show up. If you can't do a full rare enemy setup, fill in the gaps with item drop perks for the best results.

(There is a strategy people are using where they spend 100 jewels to refill their AP and run the quest again. You're welcome to do this, but watch your jewel count. You'll only get 500 jewels per Riku+Moogle, so don't spend more than you'll earn.)

This Riku board is great! Too bad there's only the one, though. Both skills are AB8Max, and the SP0 will be great for current medals! The DB6 is a great skill, too. If you didn't get one of the recent avatar boards, then this one is highly recommended.

On the other hand, the Sora and Kairi boards are a little less appealing, though that's to be expected from returning avatar boards. If you don't have a DB4Max for your PVP setup, you might consider getting one of these boards. It's a weaker defensive boost, but it's better than not having any defensive boost.

Now, stop reading this and get back to KH3!

EDIT: DON'T spend jewels to refill your AP! People were doing that at the start before realizing that the risk vs. reward wasn't worth it.
