The Trickster is one of the Elite Archetypes in Metaphor: ReFantazio. With an expanded range of skills, it can weaken enemies, produce random effects, and create chaos on the battlefield. However, its defense is weak. The Trickster is weak to Piercing damage and Wind damage.
The Trickster is the final, advanced form of the Faker. The Trickster Archetype’s lack of defense makes it incredibly tricky to use, but its variety of buffs and skills can really improve the damage output and survivability of your party.
