Actually, my setup is Optima with Helvetica used for Cyrillic:

\definefallbackfamily
  [archimate]
  [ss]
  [Helvetica]
  [preset=range:cyrillic,
   tf=style:light,
   it=style:lightoblique,
   bf=style:regular,
   bi=style:oblique,
   force=yes,
   rscale=1.0]
\definefontfamily [archimate] [ss] [Optima]
\setupbodyfont[archimate]

And I would like the effect to work on just the Optima font (which is a
bit light for this use)

Hi Gerben,
this code may work for you:

Don't forget to apply the "default" features to get ligatures and kerning.

    \definefontfeature
      [effect-widen]
      [effect={width=.2,delta=0.3}]
    \definefallbackfamily
      [archimate]
      [ss]
      [Helvetica]
      [preset=range:cyrillic,
       tf=style:light,
       it=style:lightoblique,
       bf=style:regular,
       bi=style:oblique,
       force=yes,
       features={effect-widen}]

features={default,effect-widen}]

    \definefontfamily
        [archimate]
        [ss]
        [Optima]
        [features={effect-widen}]

features={default,effect-widen}]

Does this apply the effect only to Latin characters in Optima and not to Cyrcillic characters in Helvetica? I am trying to understand the syntax and if I read this it seems to get applied to cyrillic in this case.

Well, you could try it. With one small correction (line 10 here), and effects exaggerated for demonstrations, it works just fine:

\definefontfeature
  [effect-widen]
  [effect={width=4.2,delta=0.3}]
\definefallbackfamily
  [archimate]
  [ss]
  [Calibri]
  [preset=range:cyrillic,
   force=yes,
   features=default]
\definefontfamily`
    [archimate]
    [ss]
    [Calibri]
    [features={default,effect-widen}]
\setupbodyfont[archimate]

\starttext
  \doloopoverlist{\tf, \it, \bf, \bi}{
    \recursestring{{\russian\hyphenatedword{Николаевич}\ \hyphenatedword{typography}}}\par}
\stoptext

Gives:

(I don't have your fonts, but this illustrates more clearly the difference in handling for the two family definitions.)
