The Trickster Role in Town of Salem 2: A Basic Guide

Welcome to the tour of the Trickster's trade, a wily player in the Town Killing (TK) line-up.

Role Information

Introducing the Trickster, a master of deception and manipulation within the Town Killing group. Immunities? None. The Trickster's craft? A wicked sense of cunning that allows them to play tricks on unsuspecting players, enticing them to attack. And here's the twist - if a player attacked by the Trickster retaliates, the Trickster will counter-attack with a Powerful Attack. But be warned, while the Trickster is engaged in tricking someone, they will appear suspicious to the Sheriff. Additionally, the Trickster is now immune to roleblocking.

Playing as a Trickster

Understanding the Trickster Role:
As a Trickster, you are the wildcard among the town's defensive lineup. Your ability lies in playing tricks on others, manipulating them into making ill-advised attacks. If your taunted target strikes back, they will face the consequences of a powerful counter-attack. But remember, while you're tricking someone, the watchful eye of the Sheriff may cast doubt upon you. Furthermore, your newfound immunity to roleblocking grants you freedom to execute your tricks undeterred.

Sniffing Out Danger:
As a member of the Town Killing crew, you are likely targeted by the villains. Assess the situation, pay attention to conversations, and be ready to unleash your mischief when danger looms.

Blending In with the Town:
While you should not overtly reveal your abilities, engaging in casual conversation with other townies can be advantageous, especially after successfully tricking an attacker. Sharing too much information, however, risks exposing your tricks.

Walking the Tightrope:
Your tricks pack a punch, but if not handled with care, they can backfire on your own allies. Maintain your coolness and prioritize self-preservation without jeopardizing the town's well-being.
