FAQ
What is the Trickster build good for?
What stat should I invest in?
Where does the Trickster fit in a group?
This is the Trickster path deep-dive. Enshrouded has no fixed classes - the 12 paths in the Forging the Path tree are a navigation aid, not a lock - so the Trickster build means allocating along the Trickster path until your build becomes Trickster-like. Below: the stat to invest, the first skill picks, the weapon and armor that fit, and where this path lands in a group. Exact skill names and point costs are marked verify at 1.0.
What the Trickster path is
Magic crowd control: stun and knockback. The Trickster protects itself and sets up the group - stun and knockback control the fight and create openings the squad can work. It is the control slot, not a primary damage dealer.
Stats to invest
Intelligence for magic damage, Spirit for the mana pool to keep the control effects up.
First skill picks
| Skill | Why |
|---|---|
| Blink / Updraft | Center-hub picks - the repositioning that keeps you safe while controlling |
| Stun and knockback | The control that protects you and sets up the group |
Weapon and armor
Crowd-control magic - the weapon is secondary to the control. See the best weapons guide for the weapon side.
Wards for self-sustain, legs for repositioning. See the best armor guide for the control/support breakdown.
In a group
The control slot. The Trickster protects itself and creates openings the squad works - it is not a primary damage dealer, so pair it with a tank, a healer, and at least one DPS.
The co-op team planner maps where this path fits for team sizes 1-8.
