I Need Help With Trickster's Adept
With the current meta, I have TRIED to get Trickster's Adept, spending 7 hours doing so, it just feels like no matter what I do I cant get this Adept.
What are my issues that Im facing?
- Made For This; this one single perk just makes it impossible for me to catch up with Survivors without using Bloodlust. Since I get slowed so much from using my Knives I just end up losing distance trying to use my power on most loops.
- Spacing Out + Toolboxes; with the recent BNP nerfs announced, I have been getting a lot of Survivors spacing out and using Brand New Parts every match. Sometimes Generators are completed before Im even able to get a down because they stack so many repairing Perks.
- Pressuring The Map; Pressuring the map is probably the hardest thing, with large maps like Mother's Dwelling, getting from Point A to Point B just takes way too long, and to make matters worse, Trickster's Lullaby just provides too much of a warning, so Survivors pre-run to waste so much time.
- Map RNG; Just getting certain maps like Toba Landing, Eyrie of Crows, RPD, etc make it impossible to use my power because Im too slow and there are too many LOS blockers. Whereas I maybe could get a hit with Huntress since their power doesnt require me to stare at the Survivor for 15 seconds just for a single down.
I really dont know what I can do here, any advice is welcome.
EDIT: I have gotten Trickster's Adept from using Iridescent Photocard with Diamond Cufflinks.

This can be easy if you use the correct strategy. I mainly play trickster since his release so I can give you a dirty strat.
Use iridescent photocard with diamond cufflinks (insta down add on + aura reading add on). Use a map offering for dead dawg saloon. Don't try to pressure the entire map but shameless defend the infamous 3 gen at the gallows and never go in the saloon.
You get the first down with the iri photocard and try to get the hook inside the intended three gen. Stay somewhat close, trickster is a nightmare to unhook against if he stays close (pelt with knives). Always try to get the insta down with the iri photocard so no made for this. Spacing out and toolboxes don't stand a chance against a good 3 gen strat. Let them do the gens you don't care about. Dead dawg is really open which makes using knives easier.
cufflink add on really helps if you do lose LOS for a bit to still secure the hit.
Never let them lure you to far away from your intended area they will come eventually. Don't be afraid to strategically force second stage. And don't forget starstruck, if you suspect someone is affected use m1 instead of knives (knives are usually better but not with starstruck).
This should secure a 4k before they get the gens done. If you end up with 1 survivor, look for hatch (often spawns under the gallows or in the main street) close it and wait in between the doors till they touch one and it blocks with no way out. Now you know where to look for the last one. If they don't suspect no way out and wait to long the endgame timer will get them.
Good luck!

Ironically, I would have been using Iridescent Photocard and Diamond Cufflinks BUT the game literally never gave me a single Iridescent addon until I got Trickster to Prestige 1 Level 15.
Before you even posted this, I started a match with those addons. Of course Im responding late because the match took awhile but I got Trickster's Adept done from that match.
x4 MFT as well, I got a lot of Iridescent Photocard value!

Yes congrats! Love that you got it on your own with these add ons! It feels so good to just erase the MFT value. Hmm the bloodweb never gives you what you need, i'm always hoarding the good add ons while prestiging because of that. But that takes a long time. Hope you still like trickster after this challenge since he can be really fun and strong once you get better with his knives.

Congrats! I'm glad you got it after all those attempts!!!
I got mine earlier this week too; funny enough, I also used Iridescent Photocard (though it didn't get any use). I didn't use cufflinks, iirc I had Feather Boa (?), and randomly got sent to Lery's, which... actually benefitted me exponentially with long hallways and rooms that allowed for knives to be thrown!
Iri Photo Adept Trickster party! 🤩

Im not the hugest fan of Trickster, at least in the current meta, but using Ricochet Knives with Piercing Knives is pretty fun.
