Tristan is in a strange position among the cast ofSteamworld Heist 2.
This makes him a challenge to build, even wielding the strongest skill in the game.
Bring the Great Sea’s finest on your adventures in Steamworld Heist 2!
The price he pays for this is not having a singular job that obviously fits his playstyle.
Here’s how to make him work.
Boomer does this well and builds into where he wants to beat the end of the game.
It gives him anextra utility slot that can carry some healing itemsand keeps him out of danger.
Engineer is the role that typically carries your healing items.
Their wide aura can use healing at greater distances.
Flanker is a more aggressive choice.
Firing first and then moving allows Tristan to take dangerous shots with much less risk than other characters.
Firing twice allows Tristan to easily double the damage output of any job besides sniper and brawler.
Landing all these attacks on the same target will do a sizable injury even to the tankier bossfights.
With an area weapon it can clear out entire reinforcement waves.
The Flanker is able toreposition using Sidestep, leaving both actions free to act.
Penetrator multiples the damage dealt by applying it to more enemies.
If you’ve maxed out both jobs,Flanker requires fewer side-jobs to work well.
Slotting inLoose Cannon with an atomic shotgun quadruples your damageregularly by using its cooldown reduction.
Weapons with recoil, such as Reaper SMGs will struggle when paired with Loose Cannon.
