| A Tier trinkets have solid bonuses that are great in specific situations only, such as being low HP, gliding, or particularly good in co-op play. | |
| B Tier trinkets might only be good with one particular creature type or come with significant debuffs. |
| Best Trinkets Per Class | |

Base Tier: Tier II
Mods: Shock Attack Shock Attack Effect: Adds a flat amount of shock damage to all your melee attacks.
and Haywire Haywire Effect: Charge attack hits against O.R.C. creatures overloads their receivers, unleashing a shocking blast around them. |
Melee Rogue builds greatly benefit from the Volatile Capacitor’s bonus shock damage with melee weapons, boosting overall DPS. It’s especially effective against O.R.C. creatures, providing a charge attack buff for an extra bit of crowd control and damage.
| Trinket | Tier and Mods |
|---|---|
Roach Rage
|
Base Tier: Tier II
Mods: Low Health: Attack Up Low Health: Attack Up Effect: Increases damage dealt with attacks when hit while you have low health.

Sturdy Shell
|
Base Tier: Tier I
Mods: Friendly Fire Defense Up Friendly Fire Defense Up Effect: Reduces the amount of friendly fire damage you receive from fellow teens.
and Major Threat Major Threat Effect: Increases enemies desire to attack you over other targets while in combat. |
For playing solo, the Roach Rage trinket is excellent in clutch moments when you're low on HP, giving you bonus damage to finish off enemies. You'll often hit low HP, especially when trading blows with tough opponents.
The Sturdy Shell is a great alternative for multiplayer co-op for its reduced incoming friendly fire damage and extra aggro generation, ideal for those who want to play a tank role.
| Trinket | Tier and Mods |
|---|---|
Nifty Needle
|
Base Tier: Tier I
Mods: Charged Shot Damage Charged Shot Damage Effect: Fully charged bow shots deal more damage.
|
The Nifty Needle boosts the damage of fully charged bow shots, to significantly boost ambush attacks. It pairs perfectly with bows in a stealth archer build, where you'll often be charging shots aimed at unaware prey.
| Trinket | Tier and Mods |
|---|---|
Astonishing Acid
|
Base Tier: Tier I
Mods: Finale Damage Finale Damage Effect: The final hit in your 3 hit combo does more damage.
|
Astonishing Acid is especially effective when paired with a mage staff with another element, adding extra elemental damage to make your staff more versatile in combat.
Other trinkets that enhance the third hit of weapon combos work well with candy staves, further boosting their powerful three-hit chains.
