Twisted Rounds	Type: Damage Fill your current weapon's magazine with Anomaly-infused bullets that increase your Fire Power. The skill lasts until you reload or switch weapons. 25s cooldown.

This Node set was chosen to make up for the HP bonuses that a Trickster lacks. There were chosen to ensure better chances of surviving since you will have no teammates to revive you.

Mod Set
