The Best Outriders Trickster Build for Worldslayer

The Outriders Trickster build may seem difficult to set up because of the update and nerf, but there is still a way to make it OP. The assassin subclass works best with Outriders' Trickster class because players can get up close, do damage, and get away.​

This build can only be used by players with excellent reactions who are accustomed to thinking quickly in high-intensity battles. Players with low reaction time will need to take this build very seriously.

Arms Trick is the first skill of the Outriders Trickster build towards Assassin and is the first step. From there, players can level up the Assassin tree to the maximum level to create the best Outriders Trickster Build post-nerf.

A good strategy is to purchase most of the skills in smaller circles instead of all the large circles. Of the big circles, players should get Shotgun Master, Disruptive Firepower, Outrider Executioner, Bounty Hunter, Oddity Summation, and Cold Calculation. These are great for up close and devastating hits.

With Outriders Worldslayer now out, many of these same tricks will apply to your build in the long run. It is important to understand what the trickster does best.

The Trickster is a floaty close-range class that benefits from tonnes of small kills in a row. In this sense, you want to focus on doing high damage up close and getting short health boosts where you need it.

  • Hunt and Pray
  • Venator's Knife
  • Cyclone Slice

Ace of Trumps, Bulletstorm, and Equilibrium are the only skills players should not select for this Outriders Trickster build. They add little value to the build and are generally redundant in the Worldslayer expansion. The best trickster build is one that uses its uniquely sneaky strategies to get up close and personal at the right time, shredding groups of foes before zipping back out.

The three best skills for this Outriders Trickster builds are Hunt the Prey, Venator's Knife, Cyclone Slice. They all allow for opportunities to do a high amount of damage very quickly, and Cyclone Slice is good for getting enemies off guard for kill shots. The last one is a wildcard that can be swapped out with a few other skills depending on your own preferred playstyle, but Cyclone Slice is both fun and functional.

In the end, you need to choose a build you're comfortable playing. This one requires proper foresight, risk assessment, and dexterity to pull off. There's lots of room to dive into a firefight. But if you're not used to ducking and weaving, you'll have a hard time.
