Very impressive artwork, Nate! Looking forward to this guy.

[Just J]

haha, third weapon morningstar instead of helmet, so cool!

[Kreegan]

Hm, very nice artwork but this guy certainly has the most impractical equipment of all, including the War with the half a ton War Chain. Hopefully he has a strong neck. As for the hair, it's fairly obvious that he uses one of those strengthening shampoos that they advertise on the TV.
And Nate, this artwork is ready as of last year (at least), this Trickster took his time. :p

[Megamieuwsel]

Curious what its skill-tree will look like.
Hopefully some unique skills and not just repackaged ones from the other trees.

Looks great Nate. Nice to have the 3rd shadow&myst speciality on horizon after long wait:)
Quick question: Can I train trixster skills to my slayer glads without buying the trainer?

[weaw]

Hopefully he has a strong neck. This morningstar just a decorative element of his hat, i hope. To distraction. I hope it's a hint to promise: Many different faces. Many different weapons. Simultaneously. It's cool if it's so.

Or is it the ability to pretend to be someone else. It's even cooler.

Hi Ghkg, without a Trixter trainer, your stable will be unable to teach its gladiators Trixter skills.

Good luck in the Pit!

Hopefully he has a strong neck. Otherwise: i hope he has a strong ass too! Because that morningstar will hit his ass sometimes. Judging by the picture.

[Ghkg]

Ok. Thanks for quick reply Nate.

[Just J]

hahaahah Weaw \^,^/ it's a good point!

[Adoede]

Any ETA on this guy? I'd like to see his skill tree before deciding whether to rebuild one of my glads or not.

[Nate]

As is the tradition when releasing a new specialty, here are the names of three of their skills (scrambled naturally) for the community to decipher! Enjoy!

1. dirty tricks

[Cynaidh]

2. Feign weakness

3. Unfair advantage

[weaw]

Too easy, yes.
The words "tricks", "weakness", "advantage" too visible. :(

[Adoede]

Hey Cynaidh - long time no see! You coming back to play?

[Dainoji]

So we've got a Trixter with Dirty Tricks, Feign Weakness and an Unfair advantage. I like what I'm seeing so far! Guessing the more honorable pit masters may take issue with this fella! :)

I do comsider myself as one of these "more honourable pitmasters" yet I fail to see these conflict.
In fact: I'd like to see how they're going to implement these skills without breaking game-balance(too much...) and will certainly give this one a go as I missed this type in the game from the get-go.

Too easy huh? Ok, let's increase the difficulty level shall we? Below are three more skills jumbled all together, enjoy! :)

tentaclY push -- as one of my current variants.

It's a nice riddle. Thanks.

[Kreegan]

Pretty sure one of the skills is Politely Fat. Now that will be an interesting one.

[Megamieuwsel]

There's Foul Play in there...

[Just J]

Possibilities: Hot Shot, Hype Tattoos, Pouty Face, Playful Slap/Punch/Touch, Loose Nut, Cheapshot, Face Slap

ah, just figured them : Cheap Shot, Foul Play, Taunt
\^,^/

[Megamieuwsel]

I think I'm gonna like this guy...

[weaw]

I think I'm gonna like this guy... These skills are fits into "The Carnival" concept pretty well, yes.

Well done Just J! I'll have to make the next one even harder! :)

Good luck in the Pit!

[Nate]

Time for some more Trixter skills! This time there are four skills in this jumbled up mess! :)

Good luck!

-Nate-

[Dainoji]

I'll grab the low hanging fruit. We've got "armour movement" in there which leaves us with "tasnsgelakahcanbtbnke" for the three other skills.

[Aphexii]

No more dark alley walks at midnight with those trixster's around stabbing you from behind for no reason :(

I assume "Backstab" is another skill?

[weaw]

Armour Movement, Backstab, Entangle, Shank then?

[Megamieuwsel]

Btw.- Is there going to be an option to expand the stables then?
After all, The Hohouse strifes to serve every stripe of customer in the market...

[Kreegan]

An extra slot would be nice indeed, there will be a lot of new things to try with a full house S&M school. Creating a new stable just for that would be... tedious.

[Nate]

Btw.- Is there going to be an option to expand the stables then?

Not at this time. In the future it may be possible.

Good luck in the Pit!
