Trickster Grand Blue Guide: How to Get the Fighting Style
Published 1 Sept 2026, 5:04 am · 7 min read
If you are trying to collect all the fighting styles in Grand Blue, you will definitely want to know about Trickster. Unlike the more straightforward styles, Trickster is hidden behind a small quest progression, so you cannot simply find a trainer, pay some Gold, and start using it.
To unlock Trickster, you first need to spend some time farming Aaru the Hoarder for two specific skills. After that, you will need to work through Loki’s quest, travel to Clown Town, and meet Loki again near the Ferris wheel.
In this guide, I’ll walk you through the entire Trickster unlock process from start to finish. I’ll cover the required skills, where to find Aaru and Loki, what you need to do in Clown Town, and how to switch to Trickster once you finally unlock it.

Trickster Requirements in Grand Blue
Before you start running around looking for Loki, I recommend getting the important requirements ready first.
For the Trickster progression, you need:
• Pickpocket
• Pocket Sun
• 1,000 Gold for the final requirement

• Access to the required areas
• Completion of Loki’s quest progression
The two skills are especially important because you will need them as part of the progression.
Instead of starting the quest and then realizing you are missing one of them, I recommend farming both skills first. It will save you a lot of unnecessary traveling later.
How to Get Pickpocket and Pocket Sun
The first thing you need to do is travel to Anchor Town.

Once you are there, look for Aaru the Hoarder. This boss is the source of the two skills required for Trickster.
You need to defeat Aaru repeatedly until both Pickpocket and Pocket Sun drop.
According to the provided information, both skills have around a 10% drop chance. That means you may get lucky and obtain them quickly, but you should also be prepared for a bit of grinding.
Pickpocket
Pickpocket is one of the two skills needed for the Trickster progression.
Keep defeating Aaru until you get it.

Pocket Sun
You will also need Pocket Sun from Aaru.
The reported drop chance is also around 10%, so there is a good chance you will need several boss attempts before you have both skills.
Once you have Pickpocket and Pocket Sun, check your skills to make sure both have been added before moving on.
How to Find Loki
After obtaining both required skills, it is time to find Loki.

Interact with Loki and follow the dialogue he gives you.
This is where the actual Trickster quest progression begins. Loki will give you requirements that you need to complete before you can move on.
Do not assume that simply talking to Loki unlocks Trickster.
You need to complete the objectives connected to his quest first. Follow the active quest requirements and make sure you finish each part before moving on to the next stage.
Complete Loki’s Quest
Loki’s progression involves completing the requirements he gives you.

The general route is:
• Obtain Pickpocket.
• Obtain Pocket Sun.
• Find Loki.
• Speak with him.
• Complete his requirements.

• Continue following the quest progression.
• Travel to Clown Town when instructed.
• Find Loki near the Ferris wheel.
• Speak with him again.
• Complete the final requirement.
The exact details of a quest can potentially change with future updates, so if your objectives look slightly different, follow the active quest tracker in-game.
The important thing is to complete Loki’s progression rather than skipping ahead.
Travel to Clown Town
Once you have completed the required part of Loki’s quest, you will need to travel to Clown Town.
This is where the final portion of the Trickster progression takes place.
When you arrive, head toward the Ferris wheel.
Loki is located around the upper section of the area, so do not waste too much time searching around the ground.
You need to climb around the Ferris wheel area until you find him.
Find Loki Near the Ferris Wheel
Once you reach the Ferris wheel, start checking the structures and platforms above you.
The route is fairly simple:
• Enter Clown Town.
• Find the Ferris wheel.
• Move around the structures near it.
• Climb toward the upper platforms.
• Search the higher section.
• Find Loki.
• Interact with him.
If you cannot see Loki immediately, keep climbing and checking the upper areas.
This is one of the easiest parts of the quest to miss because you might expect Loki to be standing somewhere obvious on the ground.
Pay the 1,000 Gold Requirement
When you find Loki again, interact with him to continue the Trickster progression.
The provided quest route shows a final requirement of 1,000 Gold.
So, make sure you have enough Gold before making the trip to Clown Town.
I recommend having the 1,000 Gold ready beforehand. You do not want to complete all the previous steps, travel to Loki, and then discover that you are short on currency.
Once you meet the requirement and complete the interaction, you can continue toward unlocking Trickster.
How to Unlock Trickster
Once you have completed the necessary progression, the final steps are fairly straightforward.
Here is the complete route again:
• Go to Anchor Town.
• Find Aaru the Hoarder.
• Defeat Aaru until Pickpocket drops.
• Continue farming Aaru until Pocket Sun drops.
• Find Loki.
• Start his quest progression.
• Complete all of Loki’s requirements.
• Travel to Clown Town.
• Head toward the Ferris wheel.
• Climb to the upper section.
• Find Loki.
• Interact with him.
• Have 1,000 Gold ready.
• Complete the final interaction.
• Finish the remaining progression to unlock Trickster.
If you follow those steps in order, you should have a much easier time keeping track of the unlock process.
How to Switch to Trickster
After unlocking Trickster, you can switch to it through the Wardrobe.
Head over to Beginner Town and look for the Wardrobe.
Interact with it by pressing E, then open the fighting style section.
If Trickster has been successfully unlocked, it should be available among your fighting styles.
This is useful because you do not have to permanently stick with Trickster. If you have other fighting styles unlocked, you can switch between them through the Wardrobe.
Tips for Getting Trickster Faster
If you want to save yourself some time, I recommend preparing everything you can before starting the later part of the quest.
Farm Aaru First
Get Pickpocket and Pocket Sun before worrying about the later parts of the quest.
Since the reported drop rate is around 10% for each skill, you may need several attempts.
Keep Your Gold Ready
Make sure you have at least 1,000 Gold before heading back to Loki in Clown Town.
Having the currency ready will prevent another unnecessary trip.
Follow Loki’s Objectives
Do not assume you have completed the quest just because you have spoken to Loki.
Keep checking the active objectives and finish everything he asks you to do.
Search Above the Ferris Wheel
When you reach Clown Town, remember that Loki is found in the upper Ferris wheel area.
If you cannot find him, start climbing and checking the platforms around the wheel.
Trickster Quest Quick Guide
For anyone who just wants the short version:
Anchor Town → Aaru the Hoarder → Pickpocket → Pocket Sun → Loki → Complete his quests → Clown Town → Ferris wheel → Find Loki above → 1,000 Gold → Complete the progression → Unlock Trickster.
Once Trickster is unlocked, head to Beginner Town, use the Wardrobe, and select the fighting style from the available options.
Final Thoughts
Getting Trickster in Grand Blue takes a little more work than unlocking a normal fighting style, but the route is not too complicated once you know what you are looking for.
The biggest part of the grind is getting Pickpocket and Pocket Sun from Aaru the Hoarder. With both skills having a reported 10% drop chance, this is probably where you will spend most of your time.
After that, simply follow Loki’s quest progression, travel to Clown Town, and search around the upper section of the Ferris wheel to find him again. Make sure you have the required 1,000 Gold ready for the final interaction.
Once everything is complete, you can finally unlock Trickster and equip it through the Wardrobe in Beginner Town. If you are trying to collect the secret fighting styles in Grand Blue, Trickster is definitely one you will want to add to your collection.
